| Research Abstract |
Semantic dementia(SD) is a selective deterioration in semantic memory associated with bilateral focal atrophy of the temporal lobes. The hypothesis that accuracy of the pronunciations of written words, particularly less familiar words with an atypical spelling-sound relationship, relies in part on knowledge of the meanings of the word. It has already been supported by reports of surface dyslexia in large case-series studies of English-speaking/reading patients with SD. We studied the reading performance of a larger sample of Japanese-speaking SD patients with different degrees of semantic deterioration. Ten SD patients were administered their reading performances with120 two-character kanji words, with 20 words in each of the six conditions formed by crossing three bands of consistency with two bands of word frequency. The pattern of the performance of oral reading kanji in Japanese speaking SD patients showed complete surface dyslexia.
