A Comparison of Phonemic, Semantic, and Alternating Word Fluency in Parkinson's Disease [PDF]

Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology, 1999
Word fluency in 45 medicated non-demented Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and 45 normal control subjects was studied with a Phonemic Word Fluency (PWF) task using the letters F, A, and S, a Semantic Word Fluency (SWF) task using the categories animals, boys' names, and states, and an Alternating Word Fluency (AWF) task requiring the person to ...

Functional connectivity in resting state as a phonemic fluency ability measure [PDF]

Neuropsychologia, 2017
There is some evidence that functional connectivity (FC) measures obtained at rest may reflect individual differences in cognitive capabilities. We tested this possibility by using the FAS test as a measure of phonemic fluency. Seed regions of the main brain areas involved in this task were extracted from meta-analysis results (Wagner et al., 2014) and
