Moving verbs in agrammatic production
Brocas aphasics with agrammatism suffer from a severe deficit in their ability to handle verbs. Until the early eighties, the accepted account was that verb inflections are omitted in agrammatism. This was probably due to the fact that in English, patients produce bare verbs. In 1984, Grodzinsky looked at cross-linguistic data, and showed that the appropriate description of the data is substit...
متن کاملTracking Passive Sentence Comprehension in Agrammatic Aphasia.
People with agrammatic aphasia often experience greater difficulty comprehending passive compared to active sentences. The Trace Deletion Hypothesis (TDH; Grodzinsky, 2000) proposes that aphasic individuals cannot generate accurate syntactic representations of passive sentences and, hence, use an agent-first processing strategy which leads to at-chance performance. We tested this claim using th...

متن کاملSentence production with verbs of alternating transitivity in agrammatic Broca’s aphasia
Bastiaanse, Koekkoek And Van Zonneveld (2003) hypothesized that individuals with Broca’s aphasia have problems with sentences in which the verb and its arguments are not in their base position. The present study is meant to test this hypothesis with the help of verbs with alternating transitivity: transitive: the boy breaks the glass; intransitive or unaccusative: the glass breaks. Superficiall...
متن کاملSyntactic facilitation in agrammatic sentence production.
Recently, proposals have been made to relate processing difficulties in aphasic language performance to limitations in resources for grammatical processing (Carpenter et al., 1994; Hagiwara, 1995; Kolk, 1995; Martin & Romani, 1994). Such proposals may account for a defining characteristic of agrammatic sentence production: reduced syntactic complexity. Syntactic structures that require deep hie...
