title: Morphosyntactic processing in German agrammatism: a replication and revision of von Stockert/Bader (1976).
abstract: This paper reports the results of a revised replication of the von Stockert/Bader constituent ordering study (1976) with German agrammatics. Part 1 describes why such a replication was necessary. In part 2, the original study is summarized and the weaknesses are identified which caused a revision. Part 3 reports the replication study with 10 German agrammatics. The findings of the original study with respect to Broca's aphasics could not be replicated: instead of an almost total loss of morphosyntactic sensitivity, there was almost total preservation. Part 4 eliminates the possibility of a population artefact by reporting on the performance of 3 patients with global aphasia. Part 5 integrates the results of this study within a larger framework of syntax and inflectional morphology in (German) agrammatism.
