CSD 115 Exam #3(100% Updated)
Neurological Impairments - ANSWERDescribe the types of communication deficits seen in people
who have damage to the brain in one way or another
Broca's Area - ANSWER(Frontal lobe) is related to linguistic programming, speech motor
programming, and the production of expressive speech and language
Wernicke's Area - ANSWER(Temporal Lobe) primarily responsible for the comprehension of speech
and language and the formulation of language concepts
Where is the language that is formulated in the wernickes transmitted? - ANSWER(via arcurate
fasciculus -connect brocas and wernickes ) to brocas area for speech to be programmed and
transmitted to the muscle for speech
Define Aphasia - ANSWERThe loss (one had it now don't) of the ability to comprehend or formulate
language typically associated with neurological damage.
A disorder that results from damage to the parts of the brain that contain language. -
ANSWERAphasia
Causes problems with any or all of the following: speaking, listening, reading, and writing (ASHA) -
ANSWERAphasia
What causes damage to the brain that result in aphasia? - ANSWERmostly typically caused by stroke
(cerebro vascular accident/CVA)
What causes strokes?
two things the stop blood from flowing - ANSWER-blockage in a blood vessel supplying blood to the
brain (ischemic)-lack of oxygen
-or bleeding in or around the brain(hemorrhagic)-often people die; aneurysm
Two types of strokes (CVA) - ANSWER-ischemic: blockage in the artery that supplies blood(oxygen) to
the brain
*Thrombosis: gradual blockage
*Embolism: clot gets lodged in artery causing blockage
-Hemorrhagic: a bleed in the brain caused by aneurysm
Define Aneurysm - ANSWERA bubble in the artery overtime gets weak and bursts
Ischemia stroke vs hemorrhagic stroke - ANSWERischemia stroke : a clot blocks flow to an area of the
brain
Hemorrhagic stroke: bleeding occurs inside or around the brain
Wernicke's aphasia - ANSWERunderstanding language/formulation of language
*doesn't make sense
, *not saying/doing what they tell him to do
Broca's aphasia - ANSWERproduction of speech video of lady describing pic of lady washing dishes
Expressive language deficits associated with aphasia - ANSWER*fluent/non-fluent
*anomia
*paraphasis
*neologism
*jargon
*Agrammatism
*paragrammatism
*preservation
Anomia - ANSWERDifficulty with retrieving and pronouncing words
*cant think of right way to say ex: computer-TV
paraphasis - ANSWERSound and word substitutions that are often dound in the speech at aphasic
patients whose speech and language is fluent; real word say wrong thing or sound. ex dog but say
lion
Neologism - ANSWERwords made up by patients with aphasia, they use them as though everyone
understands them
Jargon - ANSWERUsing normal intonation, prosody, and fluent speech and language while stringing
together a series of meaningless words that don't make sense to the listener (become sentence)
Agrammatism - ANSWERdeficit where articles, conjunction, and grammatical, morphemes might be
left out. effortful; short sentences tend to leave in nouns and/or verbs
Pragrammatism - ANSWERleave out most nouns and verbs, leaving only non content words (take out
meaningful stuff when describing picture give what's irrelevant/non important)
preservation - ANSWERunintentional repetition of a word, sound or movement ex' what did you
play ?basketball...no...uhh.basketball
Deficits of comprehension associated with aphasia - ANSWER*varies in severity
*Verbal agnosia- pure word -unable to comprehend and verbal language
*may be able to follow simple commands, but nothing more
*may be able to understand simple conversation, but not complex
Agnosia definition - ANSWER*its own thing
identifying sensory information. client is able to perceive the sensation but unable to interpret what
it is.
What senses can agnosia be evident in? - ANSWERAll: visual, tactile(feel what it is but don't know
what your feeling), auditory, taste, smell
