Abstract:
The California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT) was used to examine the qualitative, and quantitative aspects of memory in patients with amnesic anterior communicating artery aneurysm (ACoA) and in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). The results show that both groups were impaired relative to control participants with respect to acquisition of verbal material. The participants with A CoA exhibited a profound loss of information and emitted a significantly greater number of intrusions and false positives than either control participants or participants with MS. The advantages of using both quantitative and qualitative measures of memory in differentiating various clinical populations are discussed.

Amnesia
The severity and duration of memory loss vary depending on the type and underlying cause. Amnesia is classified into two main types: retrograde and anterograde.
Retrograde amnesia is marked by the loss of memories formed before the onset of the condition. Patients may recall distant past events but often forget those occurring shortly before the incident.
Anterograde...

The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...
