IDA Assessment Guidelines


The IDA Assessment Guidelines provide a comprehensive, research-based framework for the evaluation of individuals with dyslexia. Developed by a team of experts—Dr. Eric Tridas, Dr. Elsa Cárdenas-Hagan, Dr. Jennifer White, Dr. Gad Elbeheri, and Dr. Elaine Cheesman—the guidelines outline standardized procedures for gathering developmental history, administering assessments, analyzing results, and making evidence-informed recommendations. Grounded in the IDA definition of dyslexia, this global resource aims to support consistent, high-quality assessment practices across languages and cultural contexts.
