- The aim of this project is to explain the cause of aphasic phenomena by biologically precise models and to apply these insights to therapeutical concepts. ...
- However, a general exclusion of other causes of aphasic language deficits is not intended.
- The aspect of the "elevated firing threshold" could be an interesting point concerning a biologically adequate modelling of aphasic phenomena with probably even therapeutical consequences.
- Greener, Enderby & Whurr wrote about the benefit of language therapy of aphasic symptoms after stroke in: Speech and language therapy for aphasia following stroke (Cochrane Review):.
- Further research is required to find out if effectiveness of speech and language therapy for aphasic patients is effective. ...
- Since it is not possible to locally substitute medicals in the brain, concrete and valid hypotheses have to be proposed so that a medical treatment of aphasic patients shall be justified.

- We asked two questions: does performance by neurologically normal African Americans (AA-N) differ significantly from performance by neurologically normal Caucasians (C-N) on selected, traditional aphasia tests and culturally appropriate discourse measures, and does performance on the same measures by aphasic African Americans (AA-A) differ significantly form performance by aphasic Caucasians (C-A)? .
- Aphasic participants had suffered a left hemisphere stroke and were at least two months postonset. ...
- African Americans were younger than Caucasians, normal subjects were younger than aphasic subjects, African Americans had less years of education, and SES was lower in African Americans. The aphasic groups did not differ significantly in severity of aphasia or months postonset. ...
- Normal groups performed significantly better than aphasic groups on all aphasia tests and discourse measures. ...
