Abstract

The spontaneous speech of a patient with a specific repetition deficit was studied. The amount of pausing and of paraphasic errors was found to be normal. It was concluded that the repetition difficulty arose from an auditory-verbal short-term memory impairment and not a high-level speech production deficit. It was further concluded that the STM store involved was not part of the speech output system.
