摘要:The present project examines the neural correlates of language recovery following a theoreticallybased semantic naming treatment in individuals with aphasia. Our previous work has demonstratedthat training the more complex atypical examples (e.g., garlic ) of a category (e.g., vegetable ) resultsin generalization to the less complex typical examples (e.g., carrots ) in aphasic patients with namingdeficits (Kiran, 2007). In this study, we examined task based neural changes and effectiveconnectivity changes in patients who received this semantically based naming treatment.
