Operation of the Phoneme-to-Grapheme Conversion Mechanism in a Brain Injured Patient.
Sanders, Richard J.; Caramazza, Alfonso
Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, v2 n1 p61-82 Apr 1990
Finds that a dysgraphic patient used nonlexical processes to spell many words. Notes significant correlations between the relative frequency of phoneme-grapheme mapping options and the relative frequency of the patient's use of the same written language options. Concludes that syllable structure is involved in the process of converting phonology to orthography in nonlexical spelling. (RS)
