Abstract
As there is no aphasia test in Malayalam to test the communication skills in aphasics, an attempt was made to construct a test based on WAB (Kertesz,
1979). The new test thus developed for aphasics in Malayalam consists of 4 language subtests.
(1) Spontaneous speech : Information content, Fluency.
(2) Auditory comprehension
(3) Repetition
(4) Naming and 3 performance tests
(5) Reading
(6) Writing
(7) Praxis, and a subtest to measure intelligence and visuospatial performance.
(8) Construction: Drawing
