Two patients with a specific deficit of auditory verbal short-term memory were tested on two tasks of short-term retention, one involving verbal material-letters-and the other non-verbal material-meaningful sounds. There was a striking dissociation between performance on the two tasks, only their performance on the verbal tasks being impaired.

Abstract

Two patients with a specific deficit of auditory verbal short-term memory were tested on two tasks of short-term retention, one involving verbal material-letters-and the other non-verbal material-meaningful sounds. There was a striking dissociation between performance on the two tasks, only their performance on the verbal tasks being impaired. The results are discussed in the context of the function of this short-term memory system
