Two opposing views attribute this to difficulty with either language control or word retrieval. Aims This study investigated the influence of factors that increase activation of the non-target language on the occurrence of language mixing errors. This increased activation predicts more language mixing errors if there is a language control issue, but not if they stem from word retrieval difficulties. Methods and procedures A picture naming experiment was conducted with a bilingual individual with aphasia who showed language mixing. We investigated the influence of four factors likely to influence activation of representations of the non-target language on response accuracy, response latency and the occurrence of language selection errors: language, language mode, task, and phonological overlap between the target word and its translation equivalent. Outcomes and results The increased activation of the non-target language induced by language mode, task and phonological overlap with the translation equivalent did not lead to an increase in language selection errors when compared to correct responses. This is despite the fact that these factors affected accuracy and response latency, in the direction that is expected in unimpaired bilingual performance. Conclusions Results were not consistent with a disruption of the cognitive control needed to respond in the intended language. Instead, they highlight that language mixing in this individual, rather than being “pathological”, is instead used as a strategy to potentially improve communication when lexical retrieval difficulties occur. Language mixing behaviours in aphasia may not be due to issues of control and have a communicative value that should be recognised.","PeriodicalId":50744,"journal":{"name":"Aphasiology","volume":"37 1","pages":"1149 - 1172"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47979865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is especially true for the non-fluent/agrammatic variant (nfvPPA) in which one of the core features is agrammatism. Identification of agrammatism typically involves the analysis of sentence production, as in connected speech, in order to detect syntactic deficits. However, little is known about the longitudinal changes occurring in connected speech of individuals with non-fluent PPA. Aim The aim of this study was to assess changes in connected speech over a one-year span in participants with nfvPPA using semi-structured interviews. Methods and procedures We conducted a prospective group study including participants with nfvPPA (n=9) and age- and education-matched healthy controls (n=9). For each individual, connected speech was obtained using topic-directed interviews at two testing rounds, each approximately one year apart. Production on each task was recorded, transcribed and analyzed according to the Quantitative Production Analysis (QPA) protocol, a tool developed by Berndt and colleagues (2000) for the analysis of sentence production in aphasia. For each group, the probability of deterioration between the two testing rounds was estimated using Bayesian analysis. Results and outcomes For individuals with nfvPPA, statistical evidence of deterioration from the first testing round to the second was found for five variables, namely the proportion of pronouns, the proportion of verbs, the proportion of closed class words, the inflection index and the proportion of well-formed sentences. Conclusions Results from the present study suggest that variables relating to word-finding and morphology are more vulnerable to time and therefore may be relevant potential targets for intervention.","PeriodicalId":50744,"journal":{"name":"Aphasiology","volume":"37 1","pages":"1186 - 1197"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49455438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Importantly, some words appear to be more vulnerable to deterioration than others. We hypothesize that these differences can be explained, in part, by the unique psycholinguistic properties of words.Aims Our study investigated the role of psycholinguistic properties of words, along with their underlying psycholinguistic factors, in predicting confrontation naming performance in individuals with lvPPA.Methods & Procedures Naming accuracy data were collected from 14 individuals with lvPPA using the Boston Naming Test (BNT). For each test item, values were extracted for frequency, age of acquisition (AoA), familiarity, word length, phonological neighborhood density (PND), semantic neighborhood density (SND), arousal, and valence. We examined the effects of these psycholinguistic properties on naming accuracy using logistic regression analyses at the individual level and multiple linear regression analysis at the group level. Further, we performed mediation analyses to examine the mediating contributions of related psycholinguistic properties on naming accuracy. Finally, principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to extract fundamental factors of the psycholinguistic properties. These factor scores were entered into regression analyses to investigate their relative contribution to naming accuracy in lvPPA.Outcomes & Results Age of acquisition emerged as the strongest psycholinguistic predictor of naming accuracy in lvPPA at both the individual and group levels. The influence of AoA on naming accuracy was only partially mediated by frequency. Three principal psycholinguistic factors were extracted from the PCA. These were interpreted as “lexical-semantic usage”, “phonological complexity”, and “emotional intensity”. Results indicated that “lexical-semantic usage” and “emotional intensity” predicted naming performance at both the individual and group levels.Conclusions Age of acquisition has been associated with the phonological level in models of word naming. The observed psycholinguistic effects on naming accuracy are discussed in the context of phonological deficits in lvPPA and models of word naming.","PeriodicalId":50744,"journal":{"name":"Aphasiology","volume":"130 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136261255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
