Abstract
Verbal and nonverbal sequential abilities were compared in a group of 10 children with developmental verbal apraxia. Manual gestures, constructional praxic abilities and nonspeech volitional oral movements were also studied. These children were deficient in verbal sequential abilities, both with reference to their nonverbal sequential abilities and to normotensive data. As a group, the children did not present manualgestural or constructional apraxias, nor oral apraxias for single nonspeech volitional movements. Most had difficulty with sequences of nonspeech volitional oral movements.
