SPEECH PATHOLOGIES MANIFESTED IN DAMAGES TO THE TEMPORAL AREAS OF THE BRAIN

Summary. When the dominant hemisphere is damaged, speech (and related functions) are impaired differently in different individuals, with relatively easy recovery in some and almost no recovery in others. These facts cannot be explained only by the degree of damage (volume of damage, presence of complicating factors, etc.). Apparently, the degree of dominance of one of the hemispheres varies greatly, even in relation to such lateral processes as speech, and demonstrates significant variability in the local pathology of higher cortical functions.
