Question: 1 / 1100

What does the term Hyperlexia refer to?

Increased reading ability

Elevation of body temperature to lethal levels

Hyperlexia refers specifically to an increased ability to read, often characterized by an advanced reading skill that is disproportionate to the individual's age and cognitive abilities. This phenomenon is frequently observed in children on the autism spectrum, where they demonstrate exceptional reading proficiency despite challenges in comprehension or other aspects of language.

The correct answer emphasizes this unique proficiency in reading, distinguishing itself from other concepts such as medical imaging techniques or language disorders. The other options describe completely different phenomena: elevated body temperature refers to hyperthermia, while a specific medical imaging technique would pertain to modalities used in radiology, and a language disorder typically denotes challenges in language use, comprehension, or expression.
