A deep dyslexic patient was tested on a series of experiments designed to assess her comprehension of abstract words. On tests where a precise semantic representation of words was required, performance was much poorer with visual than with auditory presentation. However, on some but not all categorisation tests performance with both modalities was good. It is argued that deep dyslexia can result from a modality-specific deficit in attaining the meaning of words together with a disorder of the phonological reading route.
对一名深度诵读困难患者进行了一系列旨在评估她对抽象词理解能力的实验。在需要对单词进行精确语义表征的测试中，视觉呈现时的表现比听觉呈现时要差得多。然而，在一些（但并非所有）分类测试中，两种呈现方式下的表现都很好。有人认为，深度诵读困难可能是由于在获取单词意义方面存在特定模态的缺陷以及语音阅读路径紊乱所致。
