研究了一位40岁男性患者在13年前进行的双侧内侧颞叶切除术导致的严重遗忘症候群的运动技能习得。在扶轮追踪、双指掌追踪和敲击方面,他的分数一节接一节地提高,在训练结束几天后可以重新测试的一项任务(扶轮追踪)上,他表现出完全的保持。这些结果表明,在这位患者中,运动学习可以通过完好无损的大脑结构来调节。另外一个发现是,他在两项任务上都不如他的同龄人,无论是最初的还是最后的表现,都归因于他相对较长的反应时间,而不是记忆缺陷。
The acquisition of selected motor skills was studied in a 40-year-old man with a severe amnestic syndrome resulting from a bilateral medial temporal-lobe resection carried out 13 years before. On Rotary Pursuit, Bimanual Tracking, and Tapping, his scores improved from session to session, and on the one task where it was feasible to retest several days after the end of training (Rotary Pursuit), he showed complete retention. These results imply that motor learning can be mediated by brain structures still intact in this patient. The additional finding that he was inferior to normal men of his age on two tasks, in both initial and final levels of performance, is attributed to his relatively long reaction time rather than to the memory deficit.
