Having dyslexia causes a child to develop ADHD.

INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 3 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that having dyslexia causes a child to develop ADHD?

Unclear. The retrieved sources treat dyslexia and ADHD as distinct, frequently co-occurring neurodevelopmental conditions rather than one causing the other; one genetic study notes they co-occur more often than expected, and another source lists both as having environmental causes. No source directly tests or supports the claim that having dyslexia causes a child to develop ADHD.
