When tested with synthesized monosyllabic nonsense syllables and words in which the initial consonants are stops that vary in their VOT values, subjects assumed to have apraxia of speech with aphasia display deviant perception as compared to control subjects. , 1977; Dibrell & Marquardt, 1977) relate to deviant speech production. The majority of investigations of phonological discrimination and identification have utilized pictorial or graphic referents.

A test of two- and three-word sequences of auditorily presented words was used in which the stimulus words in each sequence varied minimally with regard to their initial consonants, final consonants, medial vowels, or multiple phonemes. The patients had before them 36 Anthony G. Mlcoch and Paula A. Square plates that contained four pictures, and their task was to point out the correct sequence. The results of this auditory discrimination-sequencing task revealed that, overall, the apractic group made significantly more errors than the normal control group.

Mlcoch and Paula A. Square Originally, the disorder of apraxia of speech was segregated from aphasia by Broca because auditory comprehension appeared to remain unimpaired. Wernicke originally thought, like Broca, that speech comprehension was intact in pure motor aphasie patients (Head, 1926). However, in 1908, Wernicke stated, " I a m n o longer of the opinion that in pure motor aphasia the ability to understand always remains unimpaired" (cited in Head, 1926, p. 273). Several contemporary studies have demonstrated that auditory comprehension is impaired in subjects who demonstrate Broca's aphasia (Goodglass, Gleason, & Hyde, 1970; Parisi & Pizzamiglio, 1970; Shewan, 1976; Shewan & Canter, 1971; Trost & Canter, 1974).
