Purpose The purpose of this study was to review treatment studies of semantic feature
analysis (SFA) for persons with aphasia. The review documents how SFA is used, appraises …

The effect of semantic feature analysis (SFA) treatment on confrontation naming and

The location and extent of brain changes that support recovery in chronic stroke is probably
related to the structural integrity of the remaining cortex. However, little is known about the …

Attempts to personalize aphasia treatment to the extent where it is possible to reliably predict
individual response to a particular treatment have yielded inconclusive results. The current …

This investigation examined the effects of a semantic feature training procedure on retrieval
of action names in a participant with anomic aphasia. Treatment was applied sequentially …

Research on the neural substrate of aphasia recovery has consistently increased since the
advent of functional neuroimaging. The evidence from therapy-induced aphasia recovery …

Purpose This Phase II treatment study examined the effect of Verb Network Strengthening
Treatment (VNeST) on individuals with moderate-to-severe aphasia. Research questions …

Background: The aphasiological literature has provided an extensive body of research on
verb impairments but many fewer verb therapy studies. Verbs display particular complexity …
