Through cognitive task performance, we examined the functional role of finger writing (kūsho) in a Japanese patient with moderate sensory aphasia and reading difficulties. We hypothesized that the visual feedback of kūsho would improve visual language processing, which we tested with a “kanji construction task” using character subparts. Results showed a higher number of correct responses 1) when the patient used kūsho and 2) when visual feedback of finger movements was available. The results suggest that kūsho may not improve the retrieval of phonological information but does aid the visual processing necessary to assemble character subparts.
