Treatment of Grammatical Time Marking in Post-Stroke Aphasia

Treatment of Grammatical Time Marking in Post-Stroke Aphasia: a Study of French-Speaking Subjects With Chronic Fluent and Non-fluent Aphasia

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 May 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The study aims to assess an individual or self-administered computer therapy's effectiveness in grammatical time marking. The main objective is to examine whether the therapy improves grammatical time marking of inflected verbs treated on the sessions. We also explore whether the observed progress can be transferred to untrained items, more ecological contexts and if is maintained two and four weeks after the end of treatment. This therapy will be administered to six individuals with brain lesions after stroke. Four individuals will take part of the individual therapy and two individuals will take part of the self-administered computer therapy. The therapy will last one month, at the rate of three weekly sessions of approximately one hour.
