Abstract
The development of the cognitive processes responsible for spelling, as well as the etiology of spelling disorders has received more attention than any other area of written language. While the cognitive networks that allow an individual to spell may have similarities with text structure or sentence production, there are also differences between the networks. In fact, the ability to spell orally, spell from dictation, copy words, or spell on a spontaneous writing tasks all put different demands on cognitive networks.
