Comprehension of passives in Broca’s aphasia

Communicative effectiveness in Broca's aphasia

Journal of Communication Disorders, 1985
The purpose of this study was to investigate communicative effectiveness in aphasia. Five patients with Broca's aphasia and five neurologically normal subjects participated in referential communication and spontaneous conversation tasks. Performance on the referential tasks was used to derive measures of communication success, learning, and efficiency.

Compensatory articulation in Broca's aphasia

Brain and Language, 1986
Thirteen patients clinically diagnosed as Broca's aphasics, were administered a vowel bite block task to ascertain their on-line compensatory articulation ability. Formant frequencies for F1 and F2 were obtained from a pitch-synchronous spectral analysis of digitized vowel waveforms. Bite block/i/productions were consistently characterized by higher F1

Speech prosody in Broca's aphasia

Brain and Language, 1982
Abstract Because speech prosody is thought to be impaired in Broca's aphasia, we conducted three experiments using Broca's aphasics and nonneurological control subjects in order to determine to what extent this statement is accurate. Using three acoustic measures of speech prosody—sentence-final fundamental frequency (F0) fall, F0 declination, and ...
