Abstract
Abstract This study investigated the efficacy of two types of cues (phonemic and semantic) in aphasic patients with naming deficits. Subjects consisted of ten Broca's, ten Wernicke's, eight conduction, and eight anomic aphasic subjects. Cues were administered following failure to name on confrontation. Responsiveness to cueing was dependent on type of cue and type of aphasia. Subjects performed better on phonemic as compared to semantic cues. In addition, aphasic subgroups responded differentially, with conduction subjects responding significantly better to cueing than Wernicke's subjects. These findings are discussed with respect to the neuropsychological mechanisms involved in cueing.
