You are a neuropsychologist and a patient comes into your office having recently had a stroke. They are exhibiting the following symptoms: The patient has no meaningful speech, nor can he comprehend what you say to him. He can repeat words that are spoken to him, but still does not understand these words, even after he has spoke them. In which area(s) did he most likely suffer brain damage?
A.
Arcuate Fasiculus
B.
Posterior Language Area only
C.
Wernicke's Area only
D.
Broca's Area
E.
Wernicke's Area AND Posterior Language Area
What are the similarities and differences between Brocka’s and Wernicke’s aphasia? What do aphasias teach us about language processing in the brain?
What are Speech-motor disorders? I am needing clarity on that.
