✦ Synopsis

Recently, theorists have suggested a close relation between the codes activated during language processing and those involved in STM. In order to further investigate this relationship, we examined the performance of an anomic patient, MS, to determine whether he would exhibit the same impairment in retrieving phonology from semantics in short-term memory that he shows in picture naming. The results indicated a similar pattern of performance in naming and in STM tasks requiring retention of output phonological codes (those involved in production). However, MS performed at a high level on STM tasks requiring the retention of input phonological codes (those involved in perception). The findings support the following conclusions: semantic information contributes to STM, input and output phonological codes are separable and maintained in separate buffers, and the same pathway that underlies retrieval of phonology from semantics in naming underlies feedback from semantics in list recall.
