Next, we explain the roles of a dorsal sublexical system in the brain that relates print and speech, a ventral lexical…

Tomblin, J. Bruce – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2006
Research on learning disabilities (LD) depends upon a conceptual framework that specifies what it should explain, what kinds of data are needed, and how these data are to be arranged in order to provide a meaningful explanation.
