What is the role of motor simulation in action and object recognition? Evidence from apraxia
Gioia A. L. Negri,Raffaella I. Rumiati,Antonietta Zadini,Maja Ukmar,Bradford Z. Mahon,Alfonso Caramazza +5 more
TL;DR: Data from a large group of unilateral stroke patients across a range of tasks using the same set of common manipulable objects show problematic data for the hypothesis that motor processes are constitutively involved in the recognition of actions and objects.

Action performance and action-word understanding: Evidence of double dissociations in left-damaged patients
TL;DR: Dissociations at behavioural level are supported by anatomical dissociations shown in the analysis of patients' lesions, and these findings suggest that processing action words is independent of the ability to produce the associated object-directed actions.

A left basal ganglia case of dynamic aphasia or impairment of extra-language cognitive processes?
TL;DR: The patient's impairments are interpreted as a consequence of an inability to generate verbal responses particularly in situations of high competition and involves the function of left frontal regions and the second deficit is one of impaired novel thought generation as evidenced by perseverations.

STIMA: a short screening test for ideo-motor apraxia, selective for action meaning and bodily district.
TL;DR: STIMA, a short test for ideo-motor apraxia, allowing to quantify the apraxic deficit according to action meaning and affected body segment, offers important information for planning adequate rehabilitation programs based on the functional locus of the deficit.

- 01 Feb 2013
TL;DR: In this article, a strumento psicometrico for diagnosticare l'aprassia ideomotorio is presented. Butte et al. propose a test for identifying deficit selettivi in base al contenuto (gesti conosciuti vs gesti nuovi) and al segmento dell'arto superiore que esegue il movimento (distale vs prossimale).
