Proper Citation: AGNOSIA APHASIA APRAXIA and Related Terms for Cognitive Behavioral and Neurological Disorders (RRID:SCR_005336)

Description: Compilation terms with definitions that describe altered states that are associated with brain injury (e.g., trauma, stroke, tumor) or with developmental deficits. Although the list deals with primarily CNS-associated disorders, in some cases the term does not distinguish between a CNS cause or a peripheral or neuromuscular cause. Terms that are primarily psychiatric diagnoses (e.g., schizophrenia) are not included. AGNOSIA is a general term for a loss of ability to recognize objects, people, sounds, shapes, or smells; that is, the inability to attach appropriate meaning to objective sense-data. It usually is used when the primary sense organ involved is not impaired. APHASIA is a general term relating to a loss of language ability. APRAXIA is a general term for disorders of practice. These conditions are usually caused by brain injury due to trauma, stroke and/or tumor. Many of these terms have two synonymous forms that differ in whether the word starts with a- or with dys- such as alexia and dyslexia. Here the a- form is usually defined and the other is noted as syn:, except when the dys- form is the more common usage. (If you cannot find a term in one of these forms, look for it in the other. All other synonyms are defined in both forms.) Sources: These definitions are paraphrased from definitions in a large number or print and online dictionaries. Thus this list is not meant to be considered my own, but rather is a compilation. Note: When a word appears in italics, that indicates it is defined elsewhere in this list.
