A striking error in reading is the early and sometimes persistent confusion of mirror letters
such as b and d. These mirror errors are likely a result of the mirror generalization process …

Mirror generalization is detrimental for identifying letters with lateral mirror-image
counterparts ('b/d'). In the present study, we investigated whether the discrimination of this …

Children tend to confuse reversible letters such as b and d when they start learning to read.
According to some authors, mirror errors are a consequence of the mirror generalization …

We investigated whether lateral mirror errors could be more prevalent than vertical mirror
errors (eg, p/q vs. p/b confusions) because mirror generalization is harder to inhibit for the …

Young children often make mirror errors when learning to read and write, for instance writing
their first name from right to left in English. This competence vanishes in most adult readers …

The visual word recognition system recruits neuronal systems originally developed for object
perception which are characterized by orientation insensitivity to mirror reversals. It has …

Humans and primates can quickly recognize mirror images of previously exposed pictures.
This spontaneous mirror invariance, though advantageous for visual recognition, makes it …

Mirror invariance is a visual mechanism that enables a prompt recognition of mirror images.
This visual capacity emerges early in human development, is useful to recognize objects …

Research has shown that recognizing words that contain reversal letters (eg, b/d) is more
difficult than recognizing words that do not contain them. Although none of the current …

At early stages of object identification we process correctly oriented and mirrored versions of
an object similarly. However, in letter and word perception, such tolerance to mirror …
