This study investigates how semantic and phonological processes contribute to pseudoword reading deficits in stroke patients, finding that both error types are influenced by distinct cognitive and neural mechanisms.

The paper introduces a dataset of reading behavior and multimodal MRI data from older adults to study normative reading patterns and brain-behavior relationships.

The paper develops individualized computational models of alexia by simulating phonological and semantic deficits in stroke survivors, showing strong correlations with measured deficits but also model limitations.

This study identifies neural networks involved in sublexical reading by analyzing lesion patterns in stroke patients, showing distinct roles for frontal and parietal regions in orthography-to-phonology mapping.

This study investigates semantic reading deficits after stroke, finding that impaired integration of semantic and phonological representations, particularly in the left posterior superior temporal sulcus, underlies these deficits.
