Verbal learning and memory over repeated trials were studied in 12 severely closed-head-injured patients and a matched control group of 10 subjects for three types of word lists, i.e., unrelated, related but unclustered, and clustered words. Verbal memory was facilitated in both groups by presentation of related words in a clustered format. However, the performance of head-injured patients was characterized by low levels of recall, clustering, and subjective organization. In addition, they had a larger number of intrusive errors. The results provide evidence for some preserved semantic memory following closed-head injury and their implications for rehabilitation are discussed.
对12名重度闭合性颅脑损伤患者和10名匹配的对照组受试者进行了重复试验中的言语学习和记忆研究，涉及三种类型的单词列表，即不相关的、相关但无聚类的和聚类的单词。通过以聚类形式呈现相关单词，两组的言语记忆都得到了促进。然而，颅脑损伤患者的表现特点是回忆、聚类和主观组织水平较低。此外，他们有更多的侵入性错误。结果为闭合性颅脑损伤后一些保留的语义记忆提供了证据，并讨论了其对康复的意义。
