Abstract

Abstract: This experiment was designed to investigate the impairment of discourse comprehension subsequent to one hemisphere temporal lobe lesion and its possible mechanism, and the role of cooperation of left and right hemispheres. Patients with one temporal lobe lesion showed discourse comprehension difficulty and inference deficit. It indicated that temporal lobes of both right and left hemispheres were involved in a discourse processing and there may be relations between text comprehension and inference deficit resulted from the brain damage.

Key words: temporal lobe lesion, discourse comprehension, inference
