Discrimination and evocation of affectively intoned speech in patients with right parietal disease

DANIEL M. TUCKER, M.D., ROBERT T. WATSON, M.D. and KENNETH M. HEILMAN, M.D.

Veterans Administration Hospital, and Department of Neurology, College of Medicine, University of Florida, Gainesvitte, Forida.

Patients with right parietal disease have disturbed comprehension of affective speech. Ability to discriminate affective speech (make same/different discriminations) and ability to repeat emotionally bland sentences with affective tones were tested in three groups of subjects—patients with right parietal dysfunction and neglect, conduction aphasics with left hemispheric lesions, and patients without intracranial disease. Patients with right parietal dysfunction performed significantly poorer than did aphasic controls on both a recognition and discrimination task. Patients with right parietal dysfunction also scored poorer on the evocative task than the nonaphasic controls.

This work was supported by the Medical Research Service of the Veterans Administration and by a grant from the National Institutes of Health (NS-12218-01).

Presented at the twenty-eighth annual meeting of the American Academy of Neurology, Toronto, Canada, April 29, 1976.

Accepted for publication January 1977.
