2026 @lalyp.bsky.social meetings are starting up again this week! Join us on Wednesday 18th Feb (4-5pm) to hear from the amazing @andreasalins.bsky.social who will be discussing relationships between reading skill, reading engagement, and reading anxiety. See you there!

Results from analyses of 4 longitudinal datasets from Australia, US, UK: In children with ear and hearing difficulties, reading problems at age 7/9 were associated with higher symptoms of mental health problems including anxiety, peer problems, externalising behaviours, low self concept at age 9/11.
