That's the best way.
around getting services outside of also, you know, if they have also an attention problem.
But to really look at how does processing speed impact written expression?
How does it impact reading fluency, math fluency?

And I think over the years of evaluating kids, I noticed that the kids who just never seemed to, you know, kept coming back year after year and never seeming to live up to their potential, they oftentimes, it was the processing speed that tended to be the weakest.
And so I wanted to kind of identify what the problem was and understand it better.
