Abstract:

This study examined the judgments and response latencies of 10 participants with aphasia and 10 participants without aphasia for responses to indirect requests. Modals such as can and should were drawn from 5 indirect request categories. There was a significant difference in judgment errors and response latency between participants with and without aphasia. There were no significant differences between aphasic participants' judgments for literal versus nonliteral contrasts. There was a significant effect among the modals and among the categories of indirect requests. Response latency reflected

AbstractWe report the adaptation of the Aachen Aphasia Test (AAT) to the Portuguese language (PAAT) and the results of its standardization in 125 persons with aphasia and 153 healthy controls. Patients with aphasia had a previous syndromic diagnosis, obtained through a Portuguese aphasia battery, which served as a reference. The control group was stratified by age and educational level. Hierarchical cluster analyses showed good construct validity. The increasing degree of difficulty and complexity throughout the item sets comprising subtests was confirmed.

Abstract In my research, I replicate two fundamental hypotheses established by Jakob et al.

I work with 6 persons with diagnosed aphasia and 10 healthy control persons (or persons with no evident speech deficiency). From a methodological point of view, I point out the necessity to include a description of non-verbal elements in language descrip

Abstract:

Discussion abounds in the literature as to whether aphasia is a deficit of linguistic competence or linguistic performance and, if it is a performance deficit, what are its precise mechanisms. Considerable evidence suggests that alteration of nonlinguistic factors can affect language performance in aphasia, a finding that raises questions about the modularity of language and the purity of linguistic mechanisms underlying the putative language deficits in persons with aphasia.

Often times interprofessional health care team members presume individuals with aphasia due to stroke lack the capacity to participate in and contribute to decision-making. This belief may hinder the client’s participation in the decision-making process. Two main impairments resulting from stroke, that impede communication and limit capacity for autonomous participation in decision-making, are aphasia and cognitive deficits. Reduced capacity for communication in the client with stroke, combined with complexity in health team dialogue and process, may further diminish the individual’s ability t

Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the ability of persons with aphasia to access interaction and be included in social encounters in long-term care facilities (LTCFs). Method Four persons with aphasia were the focus of this investigation. A qualitative research approach using ethnographic methods was used to conduct participant observation, semistructured interviews, and artifact analysis. Expanded field notes from observations, transcribed interviews, and artifacts were then coded to identify patterns in the data. Results The interactional context of LTCFs negatively influenced

Abstract:

This report describes a problem-focused group treatment approach for treatment of persons with mild aphasia. The program aids its clients in compensating for and adjusting to day-to-day cognitive/communication problems secondary to brain injury. Speech and language test results, and client self-reports, are presented for 25 individuals with mild aphasia who have participated in the program to date. Treatment outcomes for improved and nonimproved clients receiving group treatment are discussed. Suggestions for improving documentation of the changes made in group treatment by persons with mild a

Abstract:

AbstractThe Aphasia Communication Outcome Measure (ACOM) is a patient-reported measure of communicative functioning developed for persons with stroke-induced aphasia. It was motivated by the desire to include the perspective of persons with aphasia in the measurement of treatment outcomes and to apply newly accessible psychometric tools to improve the quality and usefulness of available outcome measures for aphasia. The ACOM was developed within an item response theory framework, and the validity of the score estimates it provides is supported by evidence based on its content, internal structu

Abstract:

Persons with aphasia suffer from a loss of communication ability as a consequence of a brain injury. While rare, a small strand of research indicates effectiveness of dialogic interventions for communication development for persons with aphasia, but a vast amount of research studies shows its effectiveness for other target groups. In this paper, we describe the main parts of the hitherto technological development of an application named Dialogica that is (i) aimed at facilitating increased communicative participation in dialogic settings for persons with aphasia and other communication disorde

Method: The acoustic correlates of emphasis in Palestinian Arabic using measurements of voice onset time (VOT), frequency values of F1 and F2 formants, and duration of vowel were investigated. Four subjects diagnosed with Broca’s aphasia and four normal speakers residing in the West Bank participated in this study. The emphatic stop /t¯/ and its plain counterpart /t/ in init

Context Aphasia is a post-stroke condition that can dramatically impact a person with aphasia’s (PWA) communication abilities. To date, few if any studies have considered the cost and cost-effectiveness of functional change in aphasia nor considered measures of patient’s value for aphasia treatment. Objective To assess the cost, cost-effectiveness, and perceived value associated with improved functional communication in individuals receiving telerehabilitation treatment for aphasia.

Abstract:

A sociolinguistic analysis of an interaction between a woman with aphasia and a nonaphasic speaking partner was conducted to investigate participant framing in aphasia. Participant frames, or the stances that people take in conversation, help conversational participants structure their talk and collaboratively negotiate meaning (I. Goffman, 1974). This analysis revealed a configuration in which a person with severe aphasia enlisted her speaking partner to speak for her. That is, the interaction was framed such that the nonaphasic speaking partner served as the "spokesperson" for messages that

Abstract:

Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) includes a group of neurodegenerative disorders that are characterized by progressive deterioration of language functions, while other cognitive functions, at least at the onset of the disease, are relatively spared. There are three basic subtypes of PPA: the nonfluent progressive aphasia (nvPPA), the semantic variant of a primary progressive aphasia (svPPA), and the logopenic progressive aphasia (lvPPA). The semantic variant of a PPA can also be found in the literature under the term of semantic dementia. It is clinically manifested by progressive deteriorati

Method: Patterson and Chapey's (2008) descriptions of the hallmarks of the assessment in aphasia are presented. The ICF is described and examined in terms of whether it could be beneficial in meeting these hallmarks. Results and Conclusions: The ICF is demonstrated to be able to contribute towards meeting the goals of this evaluation framework. It is concluded that use of the ICF by clinic

Abstract:

The preconditions for successful voice communication are good hearing and listening, and auditory processing that includes the ability to process the audio signal. Damage or deceleration of sound signal processing at any level from the periphery to the central structures leads to disintegration and inability to process the signal effectively. Auditory processing in people with aphasia has not been examined in Croatia to date. Results of studies conducted in other languages point to negative effects of auditory processing difficulties on the receptive and expressive component of the language. T

Abstract:

Background Aphasia is an acquired communication disorder resulting from a stroke or traumatic brain injury. Persons with Aphasia (PWA) have deficits in language comprehension and expression. Loss of communicative functions can be isolating for PWA as they may face barriers to accessing community-based leisure programs. Aphasia-friendly materials, visuals and simple written or oral instructions, can reduce such barriers and support communicative access. Objective  The pARTicipate project is a student-initiated art group that was piloted with the aim of encouraging PWA to trial
