The Influence of Developmental Aphasia in Training--With Special Reference to Abstract Thinking.
Maddrell, David
Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, v19 n4 p278-84 Nov 1982
Three training methods differing in degree of abstraction (demonstration, slide-diagram, and diagram) were used to instruct adolescents (26 control and 21 aphasic) in the completion of two tasks. Results indicated that aphasics have a deficit of abstract thinking which can prove a handicap in training situations. Ten sources are cited. (EJS)
