Résumé
The authors comments on the article "Orthographic coding in illiterates," by J. A. Duñabeitia, et al. There is a high degree of flexibility in letter-position coding during visual word recognition and reading. This phenomenon is explained based on the presence of perceptual noise in the information used for locating the positions of objects, namely, letters, across space.
