Comprehension of Lexical Subcategory Distinctions by Aphasic Patients: Proper/Common and Mass/Count Nouns.
Shapiro, Lewis P.; And Others
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v32 n3 p481-88 Sep 1989
The study with 10 agrammatic aphasic (Broca) adults examined their difficulties using determiners in sentence comprehension. Results included the findings that printed rather than spoken presentation yielded significant improvement for the proper noun/common noun distinction, and that performance was poorer for the mass noun/count noun distinction.
