Abstract
This study added Digit Span to an index investigated in a previous stu dy. An index score, in which the WAIS Vocabulary and Information were more impaired than Similarities and Digit Span, indicated left tempora l lobe damage. Using subjects with damage restricted to a single lobe of the brain, the index was found to be significantly more related to the left temporal lobe than to any other part of the brain.
