Wong, Winsy; Low, Sam-Po – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2008
The present study investigated verbal recall of semantically preserved and degraded words and nonwords by taking into consideration the status of one's semantic short-term memory (STM). Two experiments were conducted on 2 Chinese individuals with aphasia. The first experiment showed that they had largely preserved phonological processing abilities…

Baldo, Juliana V.; Klostermann, Ellen C.; Dronkers, Nina F. – Brain and Language, 2008
Patients with conduction aphasia have been characterized as having a short-term memory deficit that leads to relative difficulty on span and repetition tasks. It has also been observed that these same patients often get the gist of what is said to them, even if they are unable to repeat the information verbatim. To study this phenomenon…

Hofmann, Juliane; Kotz, Sonja A.; Marschhauser, Anke; von Cramon, D. Yves; Friederici, Angela D. – Neuropsychologia, 2007
Two experiments investigated phonological, derivational-morphological and semantic aspects of grammatical gender assignment in a perception and a production task in German aphasic patients and age-matched controls. The agreement of a gender indicating adjective (feminine, masculine or neuter) and a noun was evaluated during perception in…

Berg, Thomas – Brain and Language, 2006
The aim of this study is to develop a partial theory of phonological paraphasias which has some cross-syndrome and cross-linguistic validity. It is based on the distinction between content and structural units and emphasizes the role of the latter. The notion of structure holds the key to an understanding of the differences among the following…

Raman, Ilhan; Weekes, Brendan S. – Annals of Dyslexia, 2005
The Turkish script is characterised by completely transparent bidirectional mappings between orthography and phonology. To date, there has been no reported evidence of acquired dyslexia in Turkish speakers leading to the naive view that reading and writing problems in Turkish are probably rare. We examined the extent to which phonological…

Renvall, Kati; Laine, Matti; Martin, Nadine – Brain and Language, 2005
The present case continues the series of anomia treatment studies with contextual priming (CP), being the second in-depth treatment study conducted for an individual suffering from semantically based anomia. Our aim was to acquire further evidence of the facilitation and interference effects of the CP treatment on semantic anomia. Based on the…

Lambon Ralph, M.A.; Braber, N.; McClelland, J.L.; Patterson, K. – Brain and Language, 2005
The disadvantage in producing the past tense of regular relative to irregular verbs shown by some patients with non-fluent aphasia has been alternatively attributed (a) to the failure of a specific rule-based morphological mechanism, or (b) to a more generalised phonological impairment that penalises regular verbs more than irregular owing to the…

Kohn, Susan E.; Smith, Katherine L. – Applied Psycholinguistics, 1994
Two aphasics with a similar level of phonological production difficulty are compared to distinguish the properties of disruption to two stages in the phonological system for producing single words: activation of stored lexical-phonological representations versus construction of phonemic representations. A set of distinguishing behavioral features…

Niemi, Jussi; Koivuselka-Sallinen, Paivi – 1985
Examination of the lexical errors (phonological paraphasias and neologisms) of two posterior aphasic patients who are speakers of Finnish, a highly synthetic language, revealed that the lexical difficulties generally typical of posterior aphasics were found in these patients as well. The typical lexical difficulties clustered around open class…

de Ajuriaguerra, J.; Tissot, R. – Linguistique, 1975
This article uses the example of aphasia to discuss to what extent and under what constraints neuropsychiatry borrows from linguistics. It is affirmed that genetic and functional, rather than static, structuralism is a useful tool for neuropsychiatry and that language functions can be seen to correspond to cerebral functions. (Text is in French.)…

Cubelli, Roberto; And Others – Journal of Communication Disorders, 1988
The article proposes a reeducation program for conduction aphasics with reproductive difficulties. Program characteristics include analysis and manipulation of visual stimuli (written words and syllables), suppression of the compensation effect of the spared lexical-semantic system; and progressive increase in length and complexity of phonological…

Kean, Mary-Louise – Cognition, 1979
The justification for Kean's (EJ 165 107) analysis of agrammatism as a phonological disorder rests on a certain specific theory of the structure of human language faculty, which is summarized. Simply proposing a competing analysis based on a distinct theory does not falsify the hypotheses. However, Kean's claims are subject to empirical…

Wayland, Sarah C.; And Others – Applied Psycholinguistics, 1989
Reports on a study in which subjects heard the beginnings of spoken words, followed by increasingly larger segments of word-onset information until the words could be correctly identified. Results are discussed in terms of word-initial phonology as a trigger for response activation. (34 references) (Author/OD)
