Dunn, Nancy D.; And Others – Journal of Communication Disorders, 1989
Nonfluent and fluent dysphasic subjects (N=22) and nondysphasic subjects (N=20) were assessed on tasks of word fluency and picture-naming.

Judd, Tedd; And Others – 1980
The case study of a 78-year-old music composer who had had a stroke revealed that he had a severe reading disturbance, a well-preserved writing ability, and no appreciable aphasia.
