The performance of five aphasic patients was rated on three tests of language ability: The Minnesota Test for Differential Diagnosis; Luria's Tests of aphasia; and a Test of expressive language based on graded stimuli from the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test. In order to assess communicative-ability of the subjects, each expressive language sample was administered to four judges and a score of communicative success was computed. The study aimed at comparing each subject's performance on these tests of aphasia and its relationship to the degree of communicative success, in an attempt to ascertain which test is the most accurate predictor of "amount" of aphasic impairment. It also aimed at extracting those variables most useful and appropriate in the diagnosis of the impairment found in aphasic patients. Inter-test correlations revealed that tests of aphasia appear to be accurate predictors of "amount" of communicative success. Inter-item comparison revealed fourteen sub-tests which indicated greatest difference in the performance of all the subjects.

Linguistic tests, based on an expressive language sample and clinical tests of aphasia, were administered to a minimally impaired aphasic subject in an attempt to compare their relative utility and sensitivity. Tests based on a linguistic framework were found to be far more sensitive to the errors in the subject's language than traditional clinical tests. Specifically, the linguistic tests isolated difficulties with the processing of deep structure relations of complex sentences. Various reasons for the results are suggested and some points are made regarding the validation of theoretical constructs through aphasic language data. A suggested model for the classification, testing and therapy of aphasic disorders, based on linguistic theory, is postulated.

Results of the audiometric Weber and Rinne tests were compared to pure tone thresholds in 185 Bantu patients. The frequency of 1000 Hz was selected as being most suitable for Weber and Rinne testing. The Weber was found to be of limited diagnostic value even with unilateral conductive losses whilst the Rinne displays a fair degree of efficiency and is of value as a routine supplement to audiometric threshold tests.
