RESUMEN
This review aims to present an overview of current research findings on the possible relationship between phonologicalawareness and visual-spatial skills among individuals with dyslexia. Narrative review of the relevant articles wereobtained through computerized searches of databases such as PubMed, PubMed Central (PMC) and Google Scholarwhich included articles from SAGE, Taylor & Francis and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Press from theyear 2000 to 2014. The key words were explored, both exclusively and in combination with each other, so as to provide abetter understanding of the relationship between them among individuals with dyslexia. Although it is evident that thereis a phonological deficit in individuals with dyslexia, however, it is inconclusive with regards to the visual-spatial deficitand strength. There is a consensus on the nature of phonological awareness skill deficits but not on the visual spatialabilities in dyslexia. In fact, the relationship between phonological awareness and visual spatial abilities in dyslexia isdependent on the area of visual ability measured.
