Abstract
This paper explores the possibility of early detection of some risk factors for the development
of dyslexia. It specifically focuses on phonological awareness and rapid automatized
naming, which are two of the main cognitive abilities considered able to predict the rise
of this disorder in preschool age (5 years). Early acknowledgment of these risk factors
enables the activation of a training that can reduce the educational and emotional impact
of the disorder, as well as reduce the number of false positives reported to the Local Health
Authority. In light of these assumptions, the role of paediatricians in identifying and monitoring
these abilities, providing for operational insights to integrate that practice into children’s
health balance, is considered.
