Network Dynamics of Visual Naming
<p>Recognition and naming of objects and actions are fundamental components of language. They involve several different systems working in coordination to accomplish a complex behavior. During visual naming, sensory and semantic processing are carried out by dedicated cortical substrates in the …

Test re-test reliability of the Boston Naming Test and the Visual Naming Test on normal subjects with a comparison to subjects with complex partial seizure disorder.
… shown to result in deficits of confrontation naming or anomia. The Boston Naming Test (BNT) and the Visual Naming Test (VNT) are both standardized measures of naming ability. Serving as a neurologically intact group, thirty adult volunteers from the Windsor area were administered the BNT, VNT …
