Abstract
This study investigated the relationship of impaired pantomime recognition to reading comprehension, sound recognition, letter recognition, and nonverbal abstract reasoning among aphasic patients. Defects in pantomime recognition were closely associated with defects in reading comprehension, but some with impaired pantomime recognition performed well on some or all of the remaining tests. Implications of the findings for the theory of asymbolia, and for reading comprehension are discussed.
