Neuropsychological evidence for “word-meaning deafness” in a Spanish-speaking patient

In this paper we present a case of “word-meaning deafness,” characterised by serious problems in the comprehension of spoken language, whilst repetition and writing words and non-words from dictation are preserved. This performance indicates the impossibility of correctly accessing phonological repr...
