When working on naming, patients with Wernicke’s aphasia do NOT respond well to ________ cues.
phonemic
A lesion to the angular gyrus, area 39 may result in
alexia or agraphia
Persons who have deep alexia have not onl ______alexia, but _________impairment as well. Therefore they may read “tall” instead of “short” or “King” instead of “Queen.”
