  • Title: Patterns of apraxia associated with the production of intransitive limb gestures following left and right hemisphere stroke.
    Author: Heath M, Roy EA, Westwood D, Black SE.
    Journal: Brain Cogn; 2001; 46(1-2):165-9. PubMed ID: 11527320.
    Abstract:
    The model of apraxia proposed by Roy (1996) states that three patterns of apraxia should be observed across pantomime and imitation conditions. In the present analysis the frequency and severity of each pattern of apraxia were examined in a consecutive sample of left-(LHD) and right-hemisphere-damaged (RHD) patients during the production of intransitive limb gestures. The results indicated that a significant proportion of LHD and RHD patients were selectively impaired in formulating the ideational component of intransitive limb gestures.
