This thesis discusses the relation between syntactic movement and comprehension deficits
in Broca's aphasia. Syntactic movement is one of the central factors underlying the …

This paper is about syntactic processing in aphasia. Specifically, we present data
concerning the ability of Broca′ s and Wernicke′ s aphasic patients to link moved …

Over many years now, we have provided evidence that the cortical area associated with
Broca's aphasia sustains operations necessary for the analysis of syntactic constructions …

Sentences with non-canonical wh-movement are often difficult for individuals with
agrammatic Broca's aphasia to understand (, inter alia). However, the explanation of this …

One influential hypothesis posits that the brain regions implicated in Broca's aphasia are
responsible for specific syntactic operations that are necessary for the comprehension and …

Behavioral variation in Broca's aphasia has been characterized as boundless, calling into
question the validity of the syndrome-based schema and related diagnostic methods of …

Background: Theories of comprehension deficits in Broca's aphasia have largely been
based on the pattern of deficit found with movement constructions. However, some studies …

Detailed assumptions about syntactic processing are essential to explain the syndrome of
Broca's aphasia, both in terms of test performance and communicative behavior. However …

Verb production is notoriously difficult for individuals with Broca's aphasia, both at the word
and at the sentence level. An intriguing question is at which level in the speech production …

This study focuses on the production of sentences in which objects have been moved
without a change in the order of the thematic roles. In Dutch, the basic word order is subject …
