N2 - Word production difficulties are well documented in dyslexia, whereas the results are mixed for receptive phonological processing. This asymmetry raises two questions: are receptive difficulties revealed when speed is considered? Are receptive and productive abilities related? To answer these questions, the present study investigated how speed and accuracy with two perception tasks (categorical perception and auditory lexical decision) predicted performance on production as measured by picture naming and RAN. General processing speed was controlled. Lexical decision was used in addition to categorical perception to assess effects of quality of lexical representations on reception.
