What is Broca's aphasia?
200
these are important differences between the left and right hemisphere
L: language (linguistic content), skilled motor functions, verbal memory, processing detail, sequential and analytic musical skills
R: language (emotion/prosody), visual spatial analysis/attention, self-awareness, nonverbal memory, processing gestalt, music in untrained muscians
200
a transcortical aphasia results in a lesion disconnecting this area

**BONUS: What are the structures in the perislyvian language arc?
300
adult onset stuttering is known as this type of aphasia
What is a psychogenic aphasia?
300
transcortical aphasias preserve this function
What is repetition?
300
lesions in this area result in impaired comprehension and repeats, but preserved speech production
What is Wernicke's area?
300
Simultanagnosia is a failure to perform this task
What is a failure to scan and integrate an entire visual scene/picture?
i.e. you can only see one object at a time

What is age 5?
400
the definition of this term is as follows:
loss of normal inflection/emotional contet of speech
What is aprosodia?
400
a transcortical sensory aphasia results from a lesion to this area
What is a lesion disconnecting Wernicke's area?

400
Balint syndrome is the result of bilateral lesions to this area of the brain
What is the occipito-parietal junction?
400
In visual processing, what is the difference between the dorsal and ventral pathway?
dorsal pathway = where
ventral pathway = what
500
this syndrome results from damage to the angular gyrus in the left parietal lobe and symptoms include finger agnosia, right-left confusion, agraphia, acalculia

500
idational apraxia is a hallmark of frontotemporal dementia. Describe ideational apraxia
cannot conceive/perform sequential steps in a task (i.e. can't follow steps to make coffee)
500
a L occipital plus a posterior corpus callosum lesion is usually associated with a R homonymous hemianopsia and this other aphasic finding
What is alexia without agraphia?
500
involuntary repetition of examiner's words
What is echolalia?
500
