Deep dyslexia is a form of alexia that disrupts reading processes is genetic. Deep dyslexia may occur as a result of a head injury, stroke, disease, or operation. This injury results in the occurrence of semantic errors during reading and the impairment of nonword reading.〔 The term dyslexia comes from the Greek words ‘dys’ meaning ‘impaired’, and ‘lexis’ meaning ‘word’ and is used to describe disorders of language concerning reading and spelling. Numerous models and hypotheses have been proposed in attempt to explain the broad range of symptoms experienced by deep dyslexics, but a definite consensus has yet to be reached. The proposed models and hypotheses have helped in treatment of some suffering patients, but only with certain specific symptoms. Additionally, the recovery seen is not experienced equally in all patients. ==Classification== Deep dyslexia is usually classified as an ''acquired reading disorder'', as opposed to a ''developmental dyslexia'', in previously literate adults as a consequence of a brain injury. However, recently, developmental deep dyslexia has also been reported in children with Williams Syndrome.〔 Deep dyslexia is considered to be a "central dyslexia" as compared to a "peripheral dyslexia". Peripheral dyslexics have difficulty matching the visual characteristics of letters that comprise a word to a stored memory of this word from prior encounters.〔 Central dyslexics are unable to properly match the visual word to the word's meaning.〔 They may also be incapable of speaking, or phonating, the sequence of written letters that they see into the word these letters represent.〔 Deep dyslexia differs from other forms of central dyslexia (phonological dyslexia and surface dyslexia) in that deep dyslexics have many more symptoms and these symptoms are generally more severe.〔 According to the “continuum” hypothesis, deep dyslexia is a more severe form of phonological dyslexia.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Deep dyslexia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
