以下一般描述的特点，一个字母的阅读和总结以前的解释，这阅读赤字在神经和心理模型，四个单一的情况下，这种综合征的患者的研究。实验研究的一个中心主题是关于书面文字的理解。尽管使用了多种技术，没有证据表明，一个词的理解可以发生在之前或没有口头阅读所需的逐个字母的分析的假设。这些患者似乎必须按顺序识别单词的字母，以便理解和报告它。第二个中心主题，通过分析阅读错误，涉及单词识别的程序。四名患者中有两名表现出“纯粹的”逐个字母综合征，一旦识别出组成字母，单词识别就没有困难。对于另外两名患者，额外的词汇缺陷通常会阻止正确识别的字母序列被识别为正确的单词。这些模式的替代解释进行了讨论的过程模型。
Following a general description of the characteristics of letter-by-letter reading and a summary of previous explanations of this reading deficit in both neurological and psychological models, four single-case studies of patients with this syndrome are presented. One central topic, addressed by experimental investigation, concerns comprehension of written words. Despite the use of multiple techniques, no evidence was obtained for the hypothesis that comprehension of a word could occur prior to or in the absence of the letter-by-letter analysis required for oral reading. It appears that these patients must do sequential letter identification of a word in order both to understand it and to report it. A second central topic, addressed through analysis of reading errors, concerns procedures for word recognition. Two of the four patients showed a “pure” letter-by-letter syndrome, with no difficulty in word recognition once the component letters had been identified. For the other two patients, an additional lexical deficit often prevented a correctly identified sequence of letters from achieving recognition as the correct word. Alternative interpretations of these patterns are discussed in terms of a process model.
