Surface dyslexia has been attributed to an overreliance on the sub-lexical route for reading.
Typically, surface dyslexic patients commit regularisation errors when reading irregular …

The frequent co-occurrence of surface dyslexia and semantic memory impairment has been
reported. The semantic glue hypothesis (Patterson and Hodges, 1992) and the summation …

This paper describes a patient (BE) who made both semantic errors and regularization
errors in oral reading. However, she did not demonstrate other characteristics commonly …

This article presents the case of a 59-year-old male, JH, with a 6-year history of primary
progressive aphasia (PPA), a disorder characterized by isolated language deterioration with …

We report the case of a patient, AC, affected by a progressive fluent aphasia associated with
left temporal lobe atrophy. The clinical picture was compatible with a diagnosis of 'semantic …

Recent models of reading, including some computational models, suggest that error-free
performance in reading aloud may be reliant, at least in part, on support from the semantic …

One theory about reading suggests that producing the correct pronunciations of written
words, particularly less familiar words with an atypical spelling–sound relationship, relies in …

We investigate the reading performance of a brain-damaged patient, JV, whose reading
skills were abolished after trauma but regained four years later. Her reading is mainly …

Surface dyslexia is a pattern of reading impairment which has been seldom described in
Italian native speakers. We report the case of a female Italian patient, RM, suffering from …

This study addressed the question of exactly which aspects of spelling-sound consistency
influence accuracy of reading aloud in surface dyslexic patients with semantic dementia …
