Background: Working memory (WM) limitations have been suggested as a significant source
of the linguistic processing deficits observed in individuals with aphasia (IWA). Digits forward …

Compared to neurologically healthy adults, persons with aphasia (PWA) demonstrate
impaired performance on working memory (WM) tasks. These deficits in WM are thought to …

Background: Researchers have found that many individuals with aphasia (IWA) present with
cognitive deficits that may impact their communication, and perhaps underlie their language …

PURPOSE: Many adults with aphasia demonstrate concomitant deficits in working memory
(WM), but such deficits are difficult to quantify because of a lack of validated measures as …

Deficits in working memory (WM) are an important subset of cognitive processing deficits
associated with aphasia. However, there are serious limitations to research on WM in …

Background: Language performance in aphasia can vary depending on several variables
such as stimulus characteristics and task demands. This study focuses on the degree of …

Background: Overall, there is growing consensus that working memory (WM) should be
routinely assessed in individuals with aphasia as it can contribute significantly to their level …

Background: Experimental studies of short-term memory and working memory (WM) in
aphasia fail to discriminate cognitive impairments of different aphasia types—non-fluent …

Prior studies have reported inconsistency in the lesion sites associated with verbal short-
term memory impairments. Here we asked: How many different lesion sites can account for …

Aphasia is an acquired impairment of language functions resulting from a brain lesion. It is
usually accompanied by deficits in non-linguistic cognitive processes. This study aimed to …
