  • Title: The impact of deep dysgraphia on graphemic buffer disorders.
    Author: Cipolotti L, Bird CM, Glasspool DW, Shallice T.
    Journal: Neurocase; 2004 Dec; 10(6):405-19. PubMed ID: 15788280.
    Abstract:
    This article describes an investigation into the residual writing skills of a severely dysgraphic patient (DA). We found that they were powerfully influenced by a number of lexical variables (lexicality, frequency, imageability, length and geminates). His error pattern was characterized by semantic, lexical, substitution, deletion errors and fragment responses that preserved the first letter. Thus, DA's written spelling was characterized by both deep dysgraphic and graphemic output buffer effects. It is proposed that this pattern of performance represents a new"putative functional syndrome."
