A patient presents with quite limited spontaneous speech, an inability to repeat statements made by the examiner, yet an ability to follow instructions provided by the examiner. This patient may be suffering from:
Wernicke’s Aphasia
Conduction Aphasia
Broca’s Aphasia
Global Aphasia
A lesion of the arcuate fasciculus would most likely cause the following subtype of aphasia:
Wernicke’s Aphasia
Conduction Aphasia
Broca’s Aphasia
Global Aphasia
Cliff was a highly educated scientist who wanted to return to work as soon as possible. He'd sustained a head injury after losing consciousness and falling. He periodically became very discouraged by the difficulty of learning to read and write at a higher-level again. Like many people with aphasia, he has fluent speech but severe word-finding problems,verbose and tangential, little reading or writing and no awareness he wasn’t communicating effectively. The patient suffering from:
Wernicke’s Aphasia
Anomic Aphasia
Broca’s Aphasia
Global Aphasia
