Summary

The proposed research is relevant to public health because stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability among older adults and communication impairments resulting from stroke have a significant negative impact on quality of life. By seeking to better understand post-stroke aphasia, this project lays the groundwork for development of new interventions, and aligns with NIDCD's priority areas 1 (understanding normal function), 2 (understanding diseases), and 3 (improving diagnosis, treatment, and prevention).

Conditions

  • Aphasia, Acquired
  • Stroke
  • Healthy Aging

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Language Condition

The intervention involves asking participants to speak and understand words and sentences with different linguistic manipulations such as morphological, semantic, phonological priming, predictability of the subject and object nouns associated with verbs, naming of verbs and nouns, production of sentences with past, future or present tense. Accuracy, response times and brain activity are the outcome measures.
