Describe what researchers have learned about phonological short-term memory from

studying persons who suffer from conduction aphasia.

What will be an ideal response?


The answer should contain a definition of phonological short-term memory and
conduction aphasia. The answer should center on describing the deficits that people with
conduction aphasia have with language use and the areas of the brain that are affected by the
disorder (Wernicke's and Broca's areas). Finally, the answer should relate phonological short
term memory to both articulatory and acoustical coding by noting that conduction aphasia
disconnects the regions of the brain involved in these processes.
