TL;DR: This article showed that the indicative mood accepts both specific and non-specific Spanish noun phrases, and that sentences in the subjunctive mood are either ungrammatical or are actually in the indicative one.
Abstract: University of Nevada This paper questions the basic claim of M.-L. Rivero's 'Referential properties of Spanish noun phrases' (LG. 51.32-48)-i.e., that a correlation exists between the 'specificity' of the head NP, as she calls it, and the mood of the dependent relative clause. It is demonstrated here that the indicative mood accepts both 'specific' and 'non-specific' NP's, and that the sentences in the subjunctive mood are either ungrammatical or are actually in the indicative mood. Moreoever, it is shown that the traditional distinction between referential and attributive NP's should not be interpreted as a distinction between specific and non-specific NP's. The final sections of the paper point out that Rivero's data do not show conclusively that existential import affects definite and indefinite NP's alike, nor that these two types of NP's receive their existential interpretation through the same linguistic means.*

TL;DR: The performances of two groups of patients, one aphasic and one non-aphasic, with severe head injuries, and a control group were compared on tests of: auditory-verbal memory span, rote learning, learning of unrelated words, concrete and abstract, and substance recall.
Abstract: The performances of two groups of patients, one aphasic and one non-aphasic, with severe head injuries, and a control group were compared on tests of: auditory-verbal memory span, rote learning, learning of unrelated words, concrete and abstract, and substance recall. The non-aphasics scored significantly lower than the controls in all tests but substance recall (immediate) and the aphasics did so in all tests. The aphasics were significantly worse on rote learning and learning of unrelated words than patients without aphasia.
