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 کاملDopaminergic System in Linguistic Comprehension and Grammar: fMRI study of Parkinsons Disease
This objective of this study is how grammar is implemented in the brain, with special attention to a neurotransmitter dopamine. Among numerous kinds of molecules known to exist in the nervous system, several molecules are known to function as “neurotransmitters”, which mediate gaps between neurons (i.e., synapses) when a neuron transmits signals to another. In this study, a neurotransmitter dop...
متن کاملSelf-paced reading and sentence comprehension in Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is associated with disturbances in sentence processing, particularly for noncanonical sentences. The present study aimed to analyse sentence processing in PD patients and healthy control participants, using a word-by-word self-paced reading task and an auditory comprehension task. Both tasks consisted of subject relative (SR) and object relative (OR) sentences, with com...

When the head noun (key), local noun (cabinet), and verb were all singular, reading times after the verb ...
