Purpose: Adults with right hemisphere damage demonstrate differences in connected
speech compared to controls, but systematic, quantitative methods to capture these …

Background and Purpose—Previous studies have suggested that patients' potential for
poststroke language recovery is related to lesion size; however, lesion location may also be …

Background: Some neuroimaging studies have suggested that specific right hemispheric
regions can compensate deficits induced by left hemispheric lesions in vascular aphasia. In …

Objectives: The aim of this systematic review was to identify the presence and nature of
relationships between specific forms of aprosodia (ie, expressive and receptive emotional …

Sentence processing problems form a common consequence of left‐hemisphere brain
injury, in some patients to such an extent that their pattern of language performance is …

Focal brain lesions are assumed to produce language deficits by two basic mechanisms:
local cortical dysfunction at the lesion site, and remote cortical dysfunction due to disruption …

Purpose: To determine how age at the time of left middle cerebral artery stroke affects
language lateralization in a combined sample of subjects with perinatal, childhood, and …

Early left-hemispheric brain lesions may lead to a reorganization of language into the right
hemisphere. Language functions are consecutively spared, but visuospatial functions show …

Right brain damages can manifest deficits of communicative skills, which sometimes cause
an important inability. The communication impairments following a right hemisphere …

While language facility was once considered to be the sole province of the “dominant” left
hemisphere, clinical and experimental findings suggest the right hemisphere plays an …
