Agnosia
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page paper describes the different categories of agnosia. This is a condition that can affect any of the five senses and, in general, results in a dissociation between the sensory stimulus and the associative memory related to that stimulus. For instance, if a patient with visual agnosia were shown a picture of an object, he would be unable to recall the name of the object. It is not a memory disorder; it is a perceptual-associative disorder caused primarily by stroke and brain injury. The several classifications of agnosia are discussed. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
