TL;DR: The results from a group of patients with cortical atrophy and a control group demonstrated the superiority of the NART over the best previously available word list (the Schonell GWRT) in enabling higher and more accurate levels of intelligence to be predicted.
TL;DR: The 36-item-version of the token test appears to be an useful and convenient device to diagnose aphasic impairment of language comprehension and supports previous studies pointing to the sensitivity of the Token Test to the presence of oral language disorders.
TL;DR: It is highlighted how considering individual differences at the behavioral and neural levels can add considerable insight to the investigation of the functional organization of the brain, and some key points about individual differences to consider when interpreting neuropsychological patterns of dissociation are highlighted.
TL;DR: The depressivecatastrophic reactions of the left brain-damaged patients were found chiefly in subjects with severe aphasia, and appeared generally after repeated failures in verbal communication, and seemed due, as Goldstein argued, to the desperate reaction of the organism, confronted with a task that it cannot face.
TL;DR: It is suggested that a left subcortical network contributes to the storage and retrieval of rote verbal arithmetic facts, while a bilateral inferior parietal network is dedicated to the mental manipulation of numerical quantities.
