摘要：While the study of phonological errors in aphasie speech is well established in the literature, the majority focuses on the segmental (phones/phonemes) and not the suprasegmental (prosody/stress) properties of aphasie speech. Levelt et al. (1999) have argued that stress is stored in the lexicon only for irregularly stressed words. An on-line psycholinguistic investigation, Tsiamas and Kehayia (in press) on the role of stress in the recognition and naming of compounds in Greek reports differential performance in compounds with stress change and those without, thus signaling the importance of stress in non-impaired psycholinguistic performance. The present study explored the effects of stress and more specifically of the stress properties of compounds during on-line word recognition in Greek-speaking individuals with left hemisphere stroke and aphasia.
