摘要: Background: Language performance in aphasia can vary depending on several variables such as stimulus characteristics and task demands. This study focuses the degree of verbal working memory (WM) load inherent language how this variable affects by individuals with aphasia. Aims: The first aim was to identify effects increased WM judgements semantic similarity (synonymy) phonological (rhyming). second determine if any following abilities could modulate effect: or access, short-term (STM), executive processing abilities: inhibition, updating, set shifting. Method & Procedures: A total 31 11 controls participated study. They were administered a synonymy judgement rhyming under high low conditions ...
