Developmental and Acquired Dyslexia: Some Observations on Jorm (1979).

Peer reviewed

Ellis, Andrew W. – Cognition, 1979

Jorm's proposal (EJ 205 636) that developmental dyslexics resemble brain-damaged deep dyslexics is not grounded on firm evidence. Holmes' likening of developmental dyslexia to acquired surface dyslexia at least demonstrates clear similarity between the errors made by the two groups. (Author/CP)

The Nature of the Reading Deficit in Developmental Dyslexia: A Reply to Ellis.

Peer reviewed

Jorm, Anthony F. – Cognition, 1979

Jorm did not, as Ellis (TM 504 892) implies, propose that developmental and acquired phonemic-deep dyslexia are functionally equivalent. Rather, Jorm identified functional similarities. Most of Ellis' criticisms are irrelevant because they are directed at this equivalency. (Author/CP)
