In fact, they pointed out that Jay Rosenbek, one of the most influential clinicians and researchers of the Mayo tradition, "revised the concept of apraxia of speech to include sensory-perceptual influences rather than the traditional view of it as strictly a motor, or output, speech disorder" (pp. 191-192). The various peripheral oral sensation studies in limb-kinetic apraxias of speech have shown sensory deficits. These deficits could presumably occur from lesions that extend to the lower postrolandic region, and therefore what Rosenbek discovered was that Luria´s "afferent apraxia" could be an added component to limb-kinetic apraxia.
