Abstract:
Tests of verbal fluency provide brief and sensitive measures of the deficits in rapidly retrieving overlearned information common in multiple sclerosis (MS). Production of words that begin with the letters F, A, and S is the verbal fluency measure most often used with patients who are fluent in English. However, because of frequency of words beginning with certain letters varies from one language to another, it is unlikely that any fixed set of letters will be appropriate for multicenter trials that involve patients who are fluent in different languages. A possible alternative involves using s

In fact, it has been suggested that phonemic verbal fluency peaks around age 30 to 39 and begins to decline at older ages.

Abstract:
Background: Changes in cognitive functioning with the progression of age have been suggested as indicator of potential degenerative disorders in older adults. With growing age, deterioration in executive functions happens and is noticeable from the difficulties in day-to-day planning, problem-solving, decision-making, and inhibition or fluency in the elderly. However, in the early stages, it might be tricky to clinically identify if the decline in the cognitive functions is clinically significant or not. Verbal fluency is a valuable executive function and posited as one of the indicators of co

Abstract:
An educational physical education (PE) hybridization program based on the personal and social responsibility model and gamification strategies was used in order to explore the effect on cognitive performance and academic achievement. A 9-month group-randomized controlled trial was conducted, with 150 participants (age: 14.63 ± 1.38) allocated into the control group (CG, n = 37) and experimental group (EG, n = 113). Inhibition, verbal fluency, planning, and academic achievement were assessed. Significant differences were observed in the post-test for cognitive inhibition, verbal fluency (named

Abstract:
Introduction. Executive function deficits are observed in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) from early stages and have great impact on daily living activities. Verbal fluency and oral diadochokinesia involve phonarticulatory coordination, response inhibition, and phonological processing and may also be affected in people with PD. This study aimed to describe the performance of PD patients and an age- and education-matched control group on executive function, verbal fluency, and oral diadochokinesia tests and to investigate possible relationships between them.

AbstractObjectives: Patients with Parkinson’s disease often experience significant decline in verbal fluency over time; however, deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) is also associated with post-surgical declines in verbal fluency. The purpose of this study was to determine if Parkinson’s patients who have undergone bilateral STN-DBS have greater impairment in verbal fluency compared to Parkinson’s patients treated by medication only. Methods: A literature search yielded over 140 articles and 10 articles met inclusion criteria. A total of 439 patients with Parkinson’s di

Abstract:
The effect of age on verbal fluency was studied in 84 healthy volunteers, ages 45 to 91 years, who performed letter-fluency and semantic-fluency tasks. Older subjects (75 to 91 yr.) performed as well as younger (50 to 64 yr.) on letter fluency but did significantly worse on semantic category fluency. This pattern is similar to that observed in Alzheimer-type dementia.

Abstract:
The use of gestures during "normal" speech production is well investigated and understood. In contrast, little systematic research has been carried out to examine gesture behaviour during non-fluent aphasie speech production, which is characterized by considerable anomia and hesitations. However, by comparing gesture behaviour during fluent, hesitant, and anomie speech, gesture research in aphasia can provide insight into a more general question: the nature of the interaction between verbal and manual expression. Furthermore, such research can help to evaluate the usefulness of therapy methods

Abstract:
The aim of this single-case intervention study was to examine whether difficulties in fluently retrieving language-based material are related to learning to retrieve arithmetical facts from long-term memory. Two 10-year-old Finnish-speaking children considered to have Specific Language Impairment (SLI) were trained individually twice a week for two months using computerised game-like addition tasks. The participants were matched for non-verbal reasoning and non-verbal numerical skills as well as linguistic skills (verbal short-term memory, comprehension and vocabulary). The key cognitive diffe

Abstract:
ABSTRACTVerbal fluency tasks, in which participants generate words during a set time, have been used in research and assessments of neurobiological disorders and impairments. Research on verbal fluency in dyslexia has shown impaired performance in semantic and letter fluency. However, studies report inconsistent results, and action fluency has not been examined in dyslexia. Current research has mainly examined verbal fluency in relation to executive functions, vocabulary, and phonological processing. The present study examined performance on letter, semantic, and action fluency in relation to

Abstract:
Background. Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) has been shown to be generally safe from a cognitive perspective, with consistent evidence that the major impact of STN-DBS in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is on verbal fluency. Objective. The aim of this study was first to identify the influence of acute manipulation of STN-DBS in PD on the number and time pattern of word generation on different verbal fluency (VF) tasks, phonemic, switching, and cued switching, and second to determine whether cueing improved VF and if cueing effects interacted with STN-DBS effects.
