Aphasic patients were given tests assessing pantomime recognition, reading comprehension, aural comprehension, and naming ability to determine whether defective pantomime recognition could be the result of a disturbance of symbolic thinking also affecting linguistic functioning. Defects in pantomime recognition always occurred in conjunction with reading defects of at least comparable severity, but reading defects sometimes occurred without comparable defects in pantomime recognition. The relationship of pantomime recognition with both aural comprehension and naming ability was significantly weaker than that between pantomime recognition and reading comprehension. The implications of the findings with regard to other nonverbal aphasic symptoms and the role of sensory modality factors are discussed.
对失语症患者进行了测试,评估其对哑剧的识别、阅读理解、听觉理解和命名能力,以确定哑剧识别缺陷是否可能是影响语言功能的符号思维障碍所致。哑剧识别缺陷总是与至少同等严重程度的阅读缺陷同时出现,但阅读缺陷有时出现时并无与之相当的哑剧识别缺陷。哑剧识别与听觉理解和命名能力之间的关系明显弱于哑剧识别与阅读理解之间的关系。文中讨论了这些研究结果对于其他非言语性失语症状的意义以及感觉模态因素的作用。
