This study investigated whether there are predictors for initial severity of ideomotor apraxia (IMA) in focal left-hemisphere vascular patients. One hundred and twenty-nine subjects were examined between 15 and 30 days post-onset. Twenty-five patients with bilateral lesions were also studied in order to delineate the role of the right hemisphere. Other neuropsychological variables (i.e., token test, progressive matrices and oral apraxia scores) and size of the lesion were included in the experimental design. The main results were that a) token test, progressive matrices, oral apraxia scores, and lesion size correlate significantly with IMA, and b) that the presence of a second lesion in the right hemisphere is not found to have any significant effect on initial severity of IMA.
本研究调查了左侧半球局灶性血管病变患者观念运动性失用症（IMA）初始严重程度的预测因素。129名受试者在发病后15至30天接受了检查。还对25名双侧病变患者进行了研究，以明确右半球的作用。实验设计中纳入了其他神经心理学变量（即代币测验、渐进性矩阵测验和口失用症评分）以及病变大小。主要结果为：a）代币测验、渐进性矩阵测验、口失用症评分和病变大小与IMA显著相关；b）未发现右半球存在第二个病变对IMA的初始严重程度有任何显著影响。
