•
The relation of reversals (e.g., d for b) with developmental dyslexia was examined.
- Children performed orientation-based and shape-based tasks on letters and shapes.
• Controls but not dyslexics had worse shape-based judgments of mirror (e.g., d – b) than identical pairs. - For rotated pairs (e.g., d – p), dyslexics behave as controls in both tasks.
- Dyslexics fail to automatize mirror discrimination during visual object processing.
