Neuroimaging and recovery of language in aphasia.
The use of functional neuroimaging techniques has advanced what is known about the neural mechanisms used to support language processing in aphasia resulting from brain damage. This paper highlights recent findings derived from neuroimaging studies focused on neuroplasticity of language networks, the role of the left and right hemispheres in this process, and studies examining how treatment aff...
متن کاملLanguage deficits after apparent clinical recovery from childhood aphasia.
Twenty-seven children with childhood injury to the left hemisphere were tested for language function and compared with appropriate controls. Eleven children had incurred their lesions before the age of 1 year, 16 afterward. The group with perinatal injury to the left hemisphere did not show a specific aphasic deficit even though they were mildly cognitively impaired. The group of children with ...
متن کاملSentence Comprehension in Aphasia
We show in this chapter that selective aphasic deficits dissociate distinct language processing systems. To this end, we focus on disruptions of lexical access that appear to implicate initial stages of sentence comprehension. The analyses we present turn on comparisons between agrammatic (Broca's) aphasic patients and paragrammatic (Wernicke's) aphasic patients. By the former we mean roughly, ...
متن کاملDissociation of algorithmic and heuristic processes in language comprehension: evidence from aphasia.
Three groups of aphasic patients, Broca’s, Conduction, and Wernicke’s, and a nonaphasic patients control group were tested for comprehension ofobject-relative center-embedded sentences. The sentences were of three types: sentences in which semantic constraints between words allowed the subjects to assign a correct semantic reading of the sentence without decoding the syntax, sentences in which ...
متن کاملDynamic Mediation for Removing Language Comprehension Problems: A Psychological Support for Listening Comprehension Mental Processing
Dynamic Assessment is an approach to assessment within Applied Linguistics which is stemmed from Vygotsky’s Socio-Cultural Theory of mind, his concept of Zone of Proximal Development and Feuerstein's theory of Structural Cognitive Modifiability. This study is an attempt to pinpoint the sources of mental processing problems in listening comprehension and applies dynamic interventions to remove t...
