摘要：Picture naming tasks are one of the most practicable treatment options for persons with aphasia. The frequencies of correct responses can be applied to evaluate the patient's naming ability. However, it remains unknown how individuals with aphasia organize the connections between the concepts of pictures. Free association tasks are available to detect conceptual associative structures in clinical populations and such structures can be analyzed by network modeling and analysis (Borge-Holthoefer & Arenas, 2010; De Deyne & Storms, 2008). The present study aimed to explore whether network modeling is a potentially useful method for the study of concept structures in individuals with aphasia.
