In the current study we present interim results of verb use analysis in two aphasic groups
based on Russian CliPS (Clinical Pear Stories) data. Russian CliPS is a multimedia corpus of
narratives produced by speakers with aphasia and right hemisphere damage, as well as
neurologically healthy speakers of Russian. ...

Background: Coherence is the quality which distinguishes discourse from a random collection of sentences. People with aphasia have been reported to produce less-coherent discourse than non-language-impaired speakers. It is largely unclear how coherence is established in natural language and what leads to its impairment in aphasia.
Aims: This paper presents a cross-methodological investigation on coherence in ...

Background: A verb’s instrumentality and name relation to an associated instrument noun are among the factors influencing verb retrieval in speakers with aphasia. Previous data on the effects of these factors are equivocal, possibly due to language- and taskspecific factors. Aims: The present study aimed to investigate the nature of the instrumentality and verbnoun name ...

The article gives an overview of mistakes made by a peculiar type of speakers – children of emigrants from Russia who grew up in a foreign linguistic environment and inherited their Russian from their parents. English tradition refers to this variety of Russian as heritage Russian. The study is based on the data from the ...

There is converging evidence that there are cognitive nonlinguistic deficits in aphasia and that these cognitive nonlinguistic deficits tend to exacerbate the language impairment of persons with aphasia. For instance, concurrent memory load or on-going interference (even when it is non-linguistic in nature) strongly affects accuracy and speed of linguistic processing in aphasia (Murray, 1999). ...

Background
Implicit-statistical learning (ISL) research investigates whether domain-general mechanisms are recruited in the linguistic processes that require manipulation of patterned regularities (e.g. syntax). Aphasia is a language disorder caused by focal brain damage in the left fronto-temporal-parietal network. Research shows that people with aphasia (PWA) with frontal lobe lesions manifest convergent deficits in syntax and ISL mechanisms. ...

The problem of incomplete language acquisition and heritage languages is approached from several perspectives: who are heritage speakers, how are they different from native speakers and L2 learners, is heritage language a particular system? This paper aims at answering these and other questions focusing on constructional deviations in the output of heritage speakers and linguistic ...

The present research addresses the role of recurrence in structuring the composition and developing the author’s argumentative line and analyses different types of recurrence depending on the literary genre. It is claimed that recurrence occurs at all layers: phoneme, morpheme, word, word combination, phrase and the whole text. The research proves that recurrent structures possess ...

The present study employed the visual-world paradigm with eyetracking to discriminate between two versions of the reordered access model - namely, whether meaning frequency and context affect (a) speed of lexical access or (b) the relative weight of simultaneously accessed meanings. The time course of lexical access and meaning integration were studied in 3 groups ...

Background: Agrammatic speakers have problems with grammatical encoding and decoding. However, not all syntactic processes are equally problematic: present time reference, who questions, and reflexives can be processed by narrow syntax alone and are relatively spared compared to past time reference, which questions, and personal pronouns, respectively. The latter need additional access to discourse and ...

Linguistic problems of individuals with agrammatic aphasia are not solely restricted to the grammatical domain: a considerable delay in lexical processing was also found in this clinical population (Prather et al., 1997). It was suggested that language processing abilities of aphasic individuals is predictable from their working memory (WM) capacities (Caspari et al., 1998; Friedmann ...

The article introduces the new corpus of eye-movements in silent reading – the Russian Sentence Corpus (RSC). Russian uses Cyrillic script that has not yet been investigated in cross-linguistic eye-movement research. As in every language studied so far, we have confirmed the expected effects of low-level parameters, such as word length, frequency, and predictability, on the eye-movements of skilled ...

There is converging evidence that there are cognitive nonlinguistic deficits in aphasia and that these cognitive nonlinguistic deficits tend to exacerbate the language impairment of persons with aphasia. Still much remains unknown about joint impact of various cognitive mechanisms or their differential influence on language processing depending on the type of aphasia. The goal of ...

Inefficient lexical processing has been found in both fluent and non-fluent aphasia, although different underlying mechanisms were proposed for those two clinical populations (Prather et al., 1997). Individuals with non-fluent aphasia were suggested to have delayed initial lexical activation, while problems of individuals with fluent aphasia concerned inhibition of irrelevant activation. The current study was ...

Discourse abilities of brain-damaged individuals are still being a matter of discussion, and Russian CliPS was created for the thorough analysis of micro- and macro-linguistic levels of narratives by PWA and ...

Понятие носитель языка (например, русского) ассоциируется с человеком, который может свободно выразить любую мысль, и при этом не делает ошибок. Этот упрощенный стереотип предполагает, что носители всегда придерживаются в своей речи какого-то единого стандарта и следуют стандартным правилам. В реальности, однако, далеко не все, кого мы называем носителями языка, говорят одинаково: как известно, есть «особенная» ...

Background: There are a limited number of aphasia language tests in the majority of the
world’s commonly spoken languages. Furthermore, few aphasia tests in languages other
than English have been standardised and normed, and few have supportive psychometric
data pertaining to reliability and validity. The lack of standardised assessment tools
across many of the world’s languages poses serious challenges ...

Cross-linguistic data suggest that the grammatical categories of tense and aspect are not generally impaired in individuals with aphasia (see Bastiaanse et al., 2011 for a review). Rather, and more specifically, verb forms expressing reference to the past or conveying perfective semantics are more impaired than verb forms expressing reference to the non-past (present or future) or conveying ...

The purpose of the present study was to identify general and syndrome-specific deficits in the lexical processing of individuals with non-fluent and fluent aphasia compared to individuals without cognitive, neurological or language impairments. The time course of lexical access, as well as lexical selection and integration was studied using a visual-world paradigm in three groups ...

Deficits in working memory (WM) are an important subset of cognitive processing deficits associated with aphasia. However, there are serious limitations to research on WM in aphasia largely due to the lack of an established valid measure of WM impairment for this population. The aim of the current study was to address shortcomings of previous ...
