NOUN AND VERB PRODUCTION IN UZBEK NON-FLUENT APHASIA

Аннотация

Noun and verb retrieval in Uzbek agrammatic aphasia is studied through picture naming experiment. Healthy and brain-damaged individuals participated in the study. Neurolinguistic studies showed difference in noun and verb impairment in aphasia. Majority of studies reported that noun processing is easier than verb processing for aphasic speakers. The results of the current study showed no noun-verb dissociation in Uzbek agrammatic aphasia. However, a small effect of age of acquisition on noun production and imageability effect on verb production is observed.
