Comprehension of familiar phrases by left- but not by right-hemisphere damaged patients.
Single words, familiar phrases (idioms and speech formulas), and novel sentences (matched to the familiar phrases in length, frequency, and structure) were selected for a picture-matching auditory comprehension task and administered to left- and right-brain damaged (LBD, RBD) subjects. The groups did not differ in single word comprehension. A 2 x 2 ANOVA revealed opposite patterns on the two ot...
متن کاملNeuropragmatics: Extralinguistic pragmatic ability is better preserved in left-hemisphere-damaged patients than in right-hemisphere-damaged patients.
The aim of the present study is to compare the pragmatic ability of right- and left-hemisphere-damaged patients excluding the possible interference of linguistic deficits. To this aim, we study extralinguistic communication, that is communication performed only through gestures. The Cognitive Pragmatics Theory provides the theoretical framework: it predicts a gradient of difficulty in the compr...
متن کاملPitch and timing abilities in adult left-hemisphere-dysphasic and right-hemisphere-damaged subjects.
The production and perception of pitch and rhythm were tested in patients with acquired unilateral left-hemisphere (LH) lesions (and subsequent motor dysphasia, n = 13), patients with unilateral right-hemisphere (RH) lesions (n = 14), and normal age-matched controls. While the LH dysphasic subjects were not generally impaired on the production or perception of pitch, they were grossly impaired ...
متن کاملFormulaic language performance in left- and right-hemisphere damaged patients: structured testing
Background: Formulaic expressions—conversational speech formulas, idioms, pause fillers, conventional phrases, proverbs, expletives, and so on—constitute on average about 25% proportionally of everyday communication. While some clinical and experimental studies have implicated a right hemisphere involvement, controversy remains surrounding cerebral processing with respect to comprehension and p...
متن کاملFeast or famine: Fixed expressions in the spontaneous speech of left hemisphere- and right hemisphere-damaged subjects
The preservation of swearing, serial speech, and speech formulas is well-attested in clinical descriptions of aphasia. Survey studies have not only confirmed these observations; they have also documented the selective preservation of proper nouns in the residual speech of left hemisphere (LH) damaged subjects (Blanken, Wallesch, & Papagno, 1990; Code, 1982). It had not been resolved whether the...
