摘要：Inefficient lexical processing has been found in both fluent and non-fluent aphasia, although different underlyingmechanisms were proposed for those two clinical populations (Prather et al., 1997). Individuals with non-fluentaphasia were suggested to have delayed initial lexical activation, while problems of individuals with fluent aphasiaconcerned inhibition of irrelevant activation. The current study was designed to further tap into the time course oflexical processing in non-fluent and fluent aphasia. Specifically, lexical ambiguity resolution was investigated usingan eye-tracking-while-listening paradigm.
