-
The model of organizing categories whereby word meaning is composed by semantic features. Defining features=core, basic, essential to the meaning. Characteristic features=more specific
Semantic features
-

acquired dyslexia
-
Type of dyslexia that involves imparied phonological route (indirect), low frequency words are imparied, assess using non-words b/c they have trouble in this area
Phonological Dyslexia
