“…The pathophysiology of HD and related specific cognitive changes may prove to be an important vehicle for relating such biological and cognitive events. This would require specifying the relationship between disturbances in those neurotransmitter substances disrupted in HD and specific changes in cognition (Bowen, Brady, & Yahr, 1973;Bowen, Kamienny, Burns, & Yahr, 1975;Henry, Weingartner, & Murphy, 1973).…”

Mixed lists of 10 high-imagery and 10 low-imagery words were stimuli in a prompted, free-recall experiment. On each trial, only words not recalled on the previous trial were presented again as stimuli. Normal controls recalled more words on each test of recall than did patients with Huntington's disease. Controls remembered more high-imagery words after fewer presentation trials and could recall them with greater consistency than low-imagery words. Patients with Huntington's disease required far more trials to remember words, never recalled all 20 words, and did not differentiate high-and low-imagery words with respect to their recall probability. Evidence presented here indicates that these patients, unlike controls, cannot consistently retrieve responses that were recalled previously. These findings are discussed in terms of the relationship between encoding and retrieval processes.

However, attempts to specify the nature of the deficit in terms of the mechanisms of motor control and types of processes that are disrupted have not been definitive (Angel, Alston, & Higgins, 1970;Brumlik & Boshes, 1966;Dinnerstein, Frigyesi, & Lowenthal, 1962;Flowers, 1975Flowers, , 1976Flowers, , 1978aHiggins, 1970;Lee & Tatton, 1975;Talland & Schwab, 1964).…”

The present study is concerned with a comparison of Parkinson's disease patients and normal subjects on a number of simple and choice reaction time tasks in accordance with Sternberg's interactive procedures. The results indicated that the motor disorder in Parkinson's disease was at the level of output processing and related to the inability of central mechanisms to select and organize responses. Further, the results suggested that patients had difficulty in formulating complex plans or programmes for action.
