Developmental graphemic buffer dysgraphia in English: A single case study.

abstract：:Motivated by neuropsychological investigations of category-specific impairments, many functional brain imaging studies have found distinct patterns of neural activity associated with different object categories. However, the extent to which these category-related activation patterns reflect differences in conceptual r...
