Anarthria Impairs Subvocal Counting
Roberto Cubelli, Paolo Nichelli, Roberta Pentore · Perceptual and Motor Skills · 1993
We studied subvocal counting in two pure anarthric patients. Analysis showed that they performed definitively worse than normal subjects free to articulate subvocally and their scores were in the lower bounds of the performances of subjects suppressing articulation. These results suggest that subvocal counting is impaired after anarthria.
