title: [Nonverbal visual memory after unilateral temporal lobe resection].
abstract: The results of investigations on the retention on non-verbal visual material differentiated with respect to the easiness of verbalization, i.e. codability, are presented. Three groups of 20 subjects each were tested: two groups after unilateral resections of the anterior parts of the temporal lobe and a control groups without brain lesions. The effectiveness of retention depended on the degree of material codability, on the location of resection, and on the degree of difficulty of the memorization task. The obtained results suggested lower effectiveness of the verbalization process of the material, and less effective perception after resection, which was compensated for in cases of right-sided lesions by less impaired verbalization process.
