Abstract
The case study of PR, a patient with acquired dyslexia without dysgraphia, is reported. PR was found to have a deficit in accessing phonology from semantics and a mild deficit in attending selectively to the components making up visual displays. Coupled together, these two deficits severely disrupted her ability to name the components of visual arrays although she could name each component in isolation (the symptom of patients classified as attentional dyslexics). We discuss the possible importance of the co-occurrence of two or more deficits in producing some neuropsychological syndromes.
