Abstract
We have evaluated at length an individual who had as a major neurological defect an impaired ability to recognize the nature of heard non-verbal sounds, that is, auditory agnosia. Wood et al.: (1971) have demonstrated that ≪different neural events occur in the left hemisphere during analysis of linguistic vs non-linguistic parameters of the same acoustic signal≫. This case provides additional clinical support for the theoretical position that there may be two central auditory processing mechanisms, one treating linguistic inputs and the other non-linguistic inputs.
