Extending the work of Corballis et al (1985, Cortex 21 225-236), we investigated mental rotation of letters (experiment 1), and of letters and shapes (experiment 2) in normal readers and developmental dyslexics. Whereas the overall response times were equal for shapes in both groups, for letters they were slower in dyslexics. For letters as well as for shapes, however, the same mental-rotation effects were obtained between the groups. The results are interpreted as support for the notion of developmental dyslexia as a deficit in functional coordination between graphemic and phonological letter representations.
在扩展科尔巴利斯等人（1985年，《大脑皮层》21卷225 - 236页）研究工作的基础上，我们对正常阅读者和发展性阅读障碍者进行了字母心理旋转（实验1）以及字母与形状心理旋转（实验2）的研究。虽然两组中形状的总体反应时间相同，但阅读障碍者对字母的反应时间较慢。然而，对于字母和形状，两组之间都获得了相同的心理旋转效应。这些结果被解释为支持将发展性阅读障碍视为字形和语音字母表征之间功能协调缺陷这一观点。
