An fMRI investigation of the effects of attempted naming on word retrieval in aphasia
In healthy controls, picture naming performance can be facilitated by a single prior exposure to the same picture (priming). This priming phenomenon is utilized in the treatment of aphasia, which often includes repeated picture naming as part of a ...
