At baseline and follow-up, for semantic variant PPA (svPPA), we hypothesized that performance on picture description will correlate more strongly with the CARR-FCS, compared to confrontation naming, as those with svPPA tend to have especially poor performance on confrontation naming [compared to logopenic variant PPA (lvPPA) and nonfluent agrammatic PPA (nfaPPA)], a task that may not be reflective of functional communication ability because communication via other means (e.g., circumlocutions) is not captured. We did not expect to find this effect in lvPPA or nfaPPA because, although anomia is present in all PPA variants, it is less severely compromised in these variants. At follow-up, for nfaPPA, we hypothesized that performance on picture description will correlate more strongly with the CARR-FCS, compared to confrontation naming, because those with nfaPPA can have a marked decline in confrontation naming due to worsening apraxia of speech.</p><p><strong>Methods and procedures: </strong>At two time points, we calculated correlation coefficients between care partners' ratings on the CARR-FCS and total CUs from spoken descriptions of the CPT-BDAE and BNT scores of individuals with PPA.

There is growing interest in the application of structural priming to assess and facilitate language processing and learning in clinical populations. Yet, little research has explored structural priming in aphasia. The purpose of this paper is to provide a state-of-the art review of structural priming studies in aphasia and provide future research directions with an eye towards using structural priming for aphasia rehabilitation.</p><p><strong>Main contribution: </strong>Structural priming occurs not only in laboratory settings, but also in everyday speech, across many simple to complex grammatical structures, different languages, and throughout the lifespan. Importantly, a body of literature suggests that structural priming may reflect processes of implicit learning, strengthening the language user's ability to map messages and sentence structures. With respect to aphasia, existing studies have discovered that priming can help persons with aphasia (PWA) produce and comprehend more complex sentences that are otherwise difficult to produce or comprehend on their own. Additionally, priming effects transfer across production and comprehension modalities, and create long-lasting, cumulative improvements of sentence processing in PWA.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The review of the literature suggests that structural priming can be used to assess PWA's ability to access various syntactic structures but also to intervene sentence production deficits in PWA.
