|
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of associative drawing task in a Korean bilingual aphasic. The subject is a 41-year old male and lived and was educated in the United States for over 25 years(from the age of 14 through 39). His former occupation was a psychiatrist. He has had a massive lesion in the occipital lobe. This study focused on improving his spontaneous language performances by associative drawing task. The associative drawing task along with spontaneous speech is to help the subject´s cognition. The ten target words in this treatment were familiar words and could be drawn easily. The results were that the associative drawing task was effective on improving the patient´s drawing ability-writing ability in English only-and naming performance both in English and Korean. However, the patient´s writing ability in Korean did not show any improvement.
