A patient (ES) with a right fronto-temporo-parieto-occipital lesion, and left neglect dyslexia, is reported. ES performed reading and association tasks on written words, composed of two embedded words, one to the left and one to the right of the division point. The meaning of the whole stimulus differed from that of the embedded words, and could not be inferred from either of them. ES produced appropriate associations even to those stimuli on which she made neglect paralexic errors. This dissociation reflects a distinction between processes which use co-ordinate spatial systems and subserve perceptual awareness, impaired in hemineglect, and processes which do not. The latter analyse left-sided information to a large extent, without reaching awareness.
报告了一名患有右侧额颞顶枕叶病变及左侧忽视性失读症的患者（ES）。ES对由两个嵌入词组成的书面单词进行阅读和联想任务，这两个嵌入词分别位于分割点的左侧和右侧。整个刺激的含义与嵌入词的含义不同，且无法从任何一个嵌入词中推断出来。即使对于那些她出现忽视性错读错误的刺激，ES也能产生恰当的联想。这种分离反映了使用坐标空间系统并服务于知觉意识的过程（在半侧忽视中受损）与不使用坐标空间系统的过程之间的区别。后者在很大程度上分析左侧信息，但未达到意识层面。
