Direct linkKrishnan, Gopee; Tiwari, Shivani – Indian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2010
Selective impairments of word-class retrieval skills have been extensively reported in the literature. Such findings posit that the conceptual knowledge is represented in specific categories, with possibly different neural representations. Although there are myriads of such findings in the literature, similar reports are scanty from the Indian…

Amberber, Amanda Miller – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2011
This article describes the adaptation of the Bilingual Aphasia Test (BAT) to the Rarotongan dialect of Cook Islands Maori, a Polynesian language spoken in the Cook Islands and expatriate communities. A brief linguistic sketch of Rarotongan is presented. As Rarotongan is characterised by a complex pronominal system, "a" versus "o" possession and…

Hernandez-Sacristan, Carlos; Rosell-Clari, Vicent; MacDonald, Jonathan E. – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2011
With clinical purposes in mind, a review of the proximaldistal opposition is carried out in order to define a universal parameter of variability in semiotic procedures. By taking into consideration different--although notionally inter-related--senses of the proximaldistal opposition, a cluster of semiotic properties is proposed, which initially…

Paradis, Michel – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2011
The Bilingual Aphasia Test (BAT) is designed to be objective (so it can be administered by a lay native speaker of the language) and equivalent across languages (to allow for a comparison between the languages of a given patient as well as across patients from different institutions). It has been used not only with aphasia but also with any…

Karanth, Prathibha – Indian Journal of Applied Linguistics, 2010
The history of the evolution of language assessments for children and adults with language disorders is described briefly. This is followed by a discussion on language assessment of the clinical population with an emphasis on linguistic profiling, illustrated through the Linguistic Profile Test. Discourse analysis, in particular, is highlighted…

Zanini, Sergio; Angeli, Valentina; Tavano, Alessandro – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2011
We report on the case of an elderly bilingual woman presenting with a diagnosis of primary progressive aphasia. The participant's native language was Friulian (L1), a predominantly oral Romance language, and her second language was Italian (L2), formally learned at primary school in oral and written forms. We investigated her linguistic abilities…

Postman, Whitney Anne – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2011
One of the most widely spoken languages of the world, Bahasa Indonesia (BI), became standardized as the official language of Indonesia. Based on Malay, it served as lingua franca in various forms throughout the Indonesian archipelago for centuries. Although BI has been habitually learned as a second language, the number of native speakers of BI…

Purpose: In this article, the authors encapsulate discussions of the Language Work Group that took place as part of the Workshop in Plasticity/NeuroRehabilitation Research at the University of Florida in April 2005. Method: In this narrative review, they define neuroplasticity and review studies that demonstrate neural changes associated with…

Dell, Gary S.; Oppenheim, Gary M.; Kittredge, Audrey K. – Language and Cognitive Processes, 2008
Retrieving a word in a sentence requires speakers to overcome syntagmatic, as well as paradigmatic interference. When accessing "cat" in "The cat chased the string", not only are similar competitors such as "dog" and "cap" activated, but also other words in the planned sentence, such as "chase" and "string". We hypothesise that both types of…

Tsapkini, Kyrana; Vivas, Ana B.; Triarhou, Lazaros C. – Brain and Language, 2008
In 1906, Pierre Marie triggered a heated controversy and an exchange of articles with Jules Dejerine over the localization of language functions in the human brain. The debate spread internationally. One of the timeliest responses, that appeared in print 1 month after Marie's paper, came from Christofredo Jakob, a Bavarian-born neuropathologist…

Lind, Marianne; Kristoffersen, Kristian Emil; Moen, Inger; Simonsen, Hanne Gram – Clinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2009
Functionally relevant assessment of the language production of speakers with aphasia should include assessment of connected speech production. Despite the ecological validity of everyday conversations, more controlled and monological types of texts may be easier to obtain and analyse in clinical practice. This article discusses some simple…

Fischman, Mark G.; Christina, Robert W.; Anson, J. Greg – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2008
Franklin Henry's "memory drum" theory of neuromotor reaction (Henry & Rogers, 1960) was one of the most influential studies of the response programming stage of information processing. The paper is the most-cited study ever published in the "Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport." However, few people know there is a noteworthy error in the…
