  • Title: The continuum of deep/phonological alexia.
    Author: Glosser G, Friedman RB.
    Journal: Cortex; 1990 Sep; 26(3):343-59. PubMed ID: 2249436.
    Abstract:
    Two patients exhibited all the characteristics of deep alexia shortly following brain injury. Both subsequently recovered some reading abilities and evolved to show a pattern of oral reading consistent with phonological alexia. These findings suggest that deep alexia and phonological alexia share common underlying deficits that are mediated by common neurological systems. A two-deficit psycholinguistic model is presented to account for the apparent continuity between deep alexia and phonological alexia.
