Abstract

|
|
This study attempted to determine the effect of a context-based drawing task on the language expression of a severe Wernicke´s and Broca´s aphasic. The subjects in this study showed a poor auditory comprehension and naming performance. They also showed paraphasia and preservation. This study focused on improving language expression by a drawing task based on conversation at hand. Ten target words were chosen which were easily drawnable and familiar to the subjects. The results showed that the context-based drawing task was effective on improving the subjects´ confrontation naming ability and expressive language ability in terms of explanation of sentences. In addition, the Broca´s aphasic showed improved naming ability when the contextual cues were given and he was supposed to spontaneously name words.
