| Abstract: | This article focuses on the development of a Literacy Assessment Battery for the diagnosis of Maltese children with specific learning difficulties. It forms part of a wider research study involving testing of 549 children in Malta as well as standardisation of the tool. Results of the children’s performance and psychometric validation go beyond the scope of this article and therefore will not be recorded here. |
