Research is trending towards understanding the interplay between dyslexia and mental health, with studies addressing anxiety, coping strategies, and resilience among individuals with dyslexia. - Cultural and Linguistic Diversity:
Emerging themes emphasize the need for research that addresses dyslexia in diverse linguistic and cultural contexts, recognizing the unique challenges faced by bilingual and multilingual learners. - Dynamic and Comprehensive Conceptualizations:

There is a notable increase in interdisciplinary collaboration, integrating insights from psychology, education, linguistics, and neuroscience to provide a more holistic view of dyslexia.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Phonetics Approaches:
Research centered solely on traditional phonetic approaches to understanding dyslexia has seen a decline, as newer studies explore more holistic and interdisciplinary methodologies. - Generalized Definitions of Dyslexia:
The focus on broad, generalized definitions of dyslexia is diminishing in favor of more nuanced and context-specific definitions that address the complexities of the disorder. - Static Assessment Methods:
There appears to be a waning interest in static, one-time assessment methods, with a shift towards dynamic and ongoing assessment practices that better reflect individual progress and needs. - Overemphasis on Early Childhood Dyslexia:
While early intervention remains crucial, there is a decreasing emphasis on dyslexia solely within early childhood contexts, as research expands to include adult dyslexia and lifelong implications. - Single Language Focus:
Research that concentrates on dyslexia in a single language context is becoming less common, with an increased emphasis on bilingual and multilingual perspectives.
