Children with nonverbal learning disabilities may demonstrate all of the following symptoms, except:

C) poor ability to decode written information.

Nonverbal learning disabilities are typically characterized by strengths in verbal skills and weaknesses in nonverbal skills, such as visual-spatial processing, coordination, and social skills. Therefore, the ability to decode written information (which is primarily a verbal skill) is generally not impaired in children with nonverbal learning disabilities.
