Control n = 19 for all tests. All patient n = 27 (seizures n = 15, no seizures n = 12, right hemisphere lesions n = 12, left hemisphere lesions n = 15), except that one patient did not receive the Delayed Recognition measure of the Stories subtest (patient n = 26, seizures n = 14, right hemisphere lesions n = 11). p-value = two-tailed t-test.
