Abstract:

The assessment of aphasics’ cognitive performance is challenging and such patients are generally excluded from studies that describe cognitive deficits after stroke. We evaluated aphasics’ performance in cognitive tasks compared to non-aphasic subjects. A sample of 47 patients (21 aphasics, 17 non-aphasics with left hemisphere lesions and 9 non-aphasics with right hemisphere lesions) performed cognitive tasks (attention, verbal and visual memory, executive functions, visuospatial skills and praxis). Aphasic patients performed poorer than all non-aphasics in Digit Span (p < 0.001), Clock-Dra

Abstract:

The rehabilitation of aphasics is fundamentally based on the assessment of speech impairment. Developing methods for assessing speech impairment automatically is important due to the growing number of stroke cases each year. Traditionally, aphasia is assessed manually using one of the well-known assessment batteries, such as the Western Aphasia Battery (WAB), the Chinese Rehabilitation Research Center Aphasia Examination (CRRCAE), and the Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination (BDAE). In aphasia testing, a speech-language pathologist (SLP) administers multiple subtests to assess people with aph

Abstract:

Speech assessment is an essential part of the rehabilitation procedure for patients with aphasia (PWA). It is a comprehensive and time-consuming process that aims to discriminate between healthy individuals and aphasic patients, determine the type of aphasia syndrome, and determine the patients’ impairment severity levels (these are referred to here as aphasia assessment tasks). Hence, the automation of aphasia assessment tasks is essential. In this study, the performance of three automatic speech assessment models based on the speech dataset-type was investigated.

Abstract:

Background and Objectives: There are several tests to determine the type and severity of aphasia, but they take a long time to administer when assessing aphasic patients. In recent years, the analysis of spontaneous speech has gained great attention because it is important to diagnose and follow post-treatment improvement in aphasic patients. This study was done to assess some parameters of connected speech in aphasic patients. In addition, the correlation between connected speech parameters and the type and severity of aphasia was measured. Methods: We compared the connected speech parameters

Abstract Aphasia following an acquired neurological insult necessitates an in-depth evaluation of the primary and secondary language symptoms. Of all the tools available for aphasia diagnosis, the Western Aphasia Battery (WAB; Kertesz, 1982) has proved to be one of the most comprehensive test batteries for describing the aphasia symptom complex. Several authors have pointed out the need for language-specific tools for the assessment of aphasia. But in Bengali, the most prevalent language in eastern India, no formal language assessment tool was available to date. The present study adapted the o

One complication is that there are many reasons to undertake language assessments, each of which may have different methods and goals.

As might be expected, the history of aphasia assessment closely mirrors the history of our understanding of the neurological underpinnings of language.

Aphasia can globally or selectively affect comprehension and production of verbal and written language. Discourse analysis can aid language assessment and diagnosis. Objective: [1] To explore narratives that produce a number of valid indicators for diagnosing aphasia in speakers of Brazilian Portuguese. [2] To analyze the macrostructural aspects of the discourse of normal individuals. [3] To analyze the macrostructural aspects of the discourse of aphasic individuals. Methods: The macrostructural aspects of three narratives produced by aphasic individuals and cognitively healthy subjects were a

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of persons with aphasia, with and without hearing loss, to complete a commonly used open-set word recognition test that requires a verbal response. Furthermore, phonotactic probabilities and neighborhood densities of word recognition errors were assessed to explore potential underlying linguistic complexities that might differentially influence performance among groups. Method Four groups of adult participants were tested: participants with no brain injury with normal hearing, participants with no brain injury with hearing loss, par

Abstract:

The Clinical Protocol for Aphasia was created on the basis of international scientific research and presented to the professionals in this field at the First Congress of the Speech and Language Pathologists of Serbia. The Protocol, whose character is diagnostic-prognostic, is multidimensional in its structure containing five axes of assessment. Its greatest value is that it aims at realistic goal setting in the rehabilitation therapy of aphasia.Communication is the key to social participation and the objective of the rehabilitation of aphasia is a social goal, i.e., the optimization of communi

Abstract:

A brief look is taken at the wide range of bilingual definitions circulating in the literature. The question of how to work within this extensively yet inaccurately defined area, is raised, with specific reference to the study of aphasia in bilingual individuals. The basic patterns of language restoration following bilingual aphasia reported in the literature are outlined. Recommended study and assessment methods in the field of bilingual aphasia are compiled from suggestions in the literature. The assessment procedures used in previous studies are critically reviewed.

Abstract:

Introduction Capacity is assumed to be present unless proven otherwise. Assessments of specific decision-making capacity for financial and legal decisions, although challenging in the general population, becomes almost impossible for individuals with language disorders (i.e. aphasia) in the absence of appropriate communication aids. Several capacity aids exist for the general population; however, it is unclear whether any communication aids exist specifically for the aphasic population to assist assessment of financial and legal decision-making capacity. Method A literature review was conducte

Abstract:

Chinese is the world's most widely spoken language with about 1.2 billion speakers. Yet, the majority of the aphasia research to date has been focused on speakers of Indo-European languages. The goals of this paper are threefold: (a) to highlight major research findings that are specific to Chinese speakers with aphasia, (b) to provide a review of the state-of-the-art tools and resources for assessing and managing aphasia in Chinese, and (c) to discuss factors to consider for evaluating and treating Chinese aphasia.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: Naming and lexical retrieval difficulties are common symptoms of aphasia. Naming abilities are usually evaluated by means of real objects or pictures or line drawings that are printed. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the ability to name objects among individuals with aphasia is influenced by the dimensions of the visual stimuli and to understand whether the order of presentation of the stimuli, number of years of education and length of time post-onset are involved in the success of naming. Methods: The naming abilities of healthy controls and p
