Abstract: This paper begins with an introduction of the concept of neglect dyslexia (ND). Reading impairments in the ND patients are then described. The impairments, with preserved semantic access, include the extinction effect, the lexical effect, the class of word effect, effect of symmetry, and word length effect. While dissociation between neglect and neglect dyslexia has been documented, close relationship between two syndromes is also found. Finally, future studies on ND in Chinese are discussed. It is suggested that one of fundamental questions is to examine to what extent ND in logographic Chinese is comparable to that in alphabetic languages.

Key words: neglect dyslexia (ND), neglect, word length, lexical, semantic.
