Abstract

The article considers the relationship between the language biography of a patient with aphasia and the process of her speech rehabilitation. The research project focuses on the problem of predicting the structure of mental lexicon in patients with aphasia via modeling it in native speakers from the same socio-professional groups without speech disorders. The process is largely based on knowledge about common characteristics of their language biography. The aim of the article is to feature the methodology used in such a type of predictive modeling, its theoretical foundations and main advantages for speech rehabilitation work. The research data include: statistics about sociological characteristics of patients collected at the local Neurorehabilitation Center from 2014 to 2018; 18 questionnaires filled in by the relatives of the patients in question; interviews with healthy Russian native speakers, whose socio-professional characteristics are similar to characteristics of one of the target groups of the patients; 12 hours of audio recordings of interviews with healthy native speakers of the Russian language, whose language biography, gender and age characteristics are similar to those of the target groups of the patients; a corpus of interview scripts processed with the Sketch Engine corpus manager; 14 patients’ speech assessment sheets completed in accordance with the Wasserman scale (it is designed to determine speech disorders of patients with a local cerebrovascular accident). By using an interdisciplinary complex of methods we obtained the following results: completed a sociolinguistic portrait of people at risk of aphasia with similar language biographies; listed the most frequent words, collocations and automated verbal series (phrases and sayings) specific to people at risk of aphasia; identified the language biography features that affect mental lexicon; elaborated a complex of exercises for speech rehabilitation of patients with aphasia regarding the specificity of their language biography; validated and assessed the exercises’ effectiveness in clinical practice. Our main conclusion is that the proposed method can help to design for patients with aphasia a more personalized complex of speech recovery exercises that will be adapted to their language biography
个体的语言传记作为心理词汇建模的工具(基于对失语症患者的实验工作)
本文探讨了一位失语症患者的语言传记与其语言康复过程之间的关系。本研究的重点是通过对来自同一社会专业群体的无语言障碍的母语人士进行建模来预测失语症患者的心理词汇结构。这个过程很大程度上是基于对他们语言传记的共同特征的了解。本文的目的是介绍这种类型的预测建模所使用的方法,理论基础和语音康复工作的主要优势。研究数据包括:2014 - 2018年在当地神经康复中心收集的患者的社会学特征统计;患者家属填写问卷18份;与健康的俄语母语人士面谈,他们的社会专业特征与患者目标群体之一的特征相似;对健康的俄语母语人士进行12小时的访谈录音,这些人的语言背景、性别和年龄特征与患者目标群体相似;由Sketch Engine语料库管理器处理的访谈脚本语料库;按照Wasserman量表(用于判断局部脑血管意外患者的言语障碍)完成14例患者言语评估表。通过使用跨学科的复杂方法,我们获得了以下结果:完成了具有相似语言传记的失语症风险人群的社会语言学肖像;列出最常见的单词,搭配和自动的口头系列(短语和谚语),针对有失语症风险的人;确定了影响心理词汇的语言传记特征;针对失语症患者语言传记的特殊性,阐述了失语症患者语言康复的复杂练习;在临床实践中验证和评估练习的有效性。我们的主要结论是,提出的方法可以帮助失语症患者设计一个更个性化的复杂的语言恢复练习,将适应他们的语言传记
