He was studied at 9 years poststroke with a Thai adaptation of the Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Exam and supplementary tests. His language characteristics included fluent spontaneous speech, near-normal auditory language comprehension, and poor repetition, leading to a diagnosis of conduction aphasia. In regard to this aphasic syndrome, issues concerning classification, neuroanatomic correlates, and underlying neuropsychological mechanisms are addressed. The nature of his grammatical disturbance is examined critically in light of the notion of "information load.". © 1982.Mahidol UniversityArts and HumanitiesHealth ProfessionsNeurosciencePsychologySocial SciencesArticleSCOPUS10.1016/0093-934X(82)90025-6
