Visuospatial Analysis of the Printed Word.
Glaser, Laura; Vandemark, Ann
Journal of Communication Disorders, v16 n6 p425-33 Nov 1983
Fifteen aphasic and 15 normal adults demonstrated use of a right hemisphere visuospatial strategy to analyze printed whole words and word parts such as prefixes and suffixes. The performances of the two groups were similar, suggesting that the hypothesized strategy could be useful as a reading approach for aphasics. (Author/CL)
