Estimated parameters of the Implicit Memory Model. Estimated values of η (weighting of implicit memory) as a function of estimated values of σ (percentage of internal noise) of Controls (blue) and Dyslexics (red). The optimal weighting η* is plotted in green. Gray area depicts the confidence interval of 2.5% below the best performance. Inset. Median deviation from optimal weighting of previous trials. Dyslexics' deviation is larger than Controls' (Mann-Whitney test, Z = 2.5, P < 0.01). Error bars denote inter-quartile range.
