Non-linear spelling in writing after a pure cerebellar lesion
The most common deficits in processing written language result from damage to the graphemic buffer system and refer to semantic and lexical problems or difficulties in phoneme-grapheme conversion. However, a writing disorder that has not yet been studied in depth is the non-linear spelling phenomenon. Indeed, although some cases have been described, no report has exhaustively explained the cognitive mechanism and the anatomical substrates underlying this process.
