Question
Discuss about cognitive disability.

Answer

It is a neurological disorder that creates hindrance or obstruction for an individual to store, process and produce information. This disability can affect an individual's ability or capability to read, compute, speak and write. So, this type of disability can also be called invisible disability because unlike other disabilities, you may not be able to assess the condition by just looking at the individual. Generally, the individuals who have this type of disability, usually have following symptoms.
  1. Memory Disorder: An individual who has auditory problems or difficulty in remembering something that he/she heard, said or saw some time ago.
  2. Hyperactivity: An individual with cognitive disability may not have attention for a long period. He/ she finds it difficult to stay at one place. As a matter of fact, he/she usually loses concentration frequently.
  3. Dyslexia: An individual with cognitive disability may exhibit dyslexia. It means he/ she may have difficulty in writing, reading, speaking, etc.
