Reconstructed brain lesions in two patients from Caplan et al. (Caplan, Gow, & Makris, 1995). Case R.Wi. is a Broca’s aphasic with good auditory comprehension (by definition) whereas Case M.L. is a Wernicke’s aphasic with relatively poor comprehension (by definition). On a syllable discrimination task R.Wi. performed at 72% correct (A′ = .72) whereas M.L. performed much better at 90% correct (A′ = .90). Figure modified from (Caplan et al., 1995).
