Sentence comprehension requires the listener to link incoming words with short-term memory representations in order to build linguistic dependencies. The cue-based retrieval theory of sentence processing predicts that the retrieval of these memory representations is affected by similarity-based interference. We present the first large-scale computa...
Resource limitation has often been invoked as a key driver of sentence comprehension difficulty, in both theories of language-unimpaired and language-impaired populations. In the field of aphasia, one such influential theory is Caplan’s resource reduction hypothesis (RRH). In this large investigation of online processing in aphasia in German, we ev...
Zusammenfassung Hintergrund: Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit bestand darin, Adaptation in der syntaktischen Verarbeitung bei Personen mit Aphasie zu untersuchen. Dafür wurden das Auftreten von Komplexitätseffekten in der Satzverarbeitung und die Veränderung des Komplexitätseffekts über zwei Testphasen (im Abstand von ca. zwei Monaten) hinweg sowoh...

An important aspect of aphasia is the observation of behavioral variability between and within individual participants. Our study addresses variability in sentence comprehension in German, by testing 21 individuals with aphasia and a control group and involving (a) several constructions (declarative sentences, relative clauses and control structure...
Background
According to the lexical retrieval hypothesis (LRH), the primary function of gestures is to facilitate word retrieval. Thus, individuals with aphasia (IWA) might benefit from gestures in case of word retrieval impairments. However, the facilitative effect of gestures on word finding is still unclear since most facilitation/treatment stud...
This systematic review investigated how successful children/adolescents with poor literacy skills learn a foreign language compared with their peers with typical literacy skills. Moreover, we explored whether specific characteristics related to participants, foreign language instruction, and assessment moderated scores on foreign language tests in...
Several researchers have argued that sentence comprehension is mediated via a content addressable retrieval mechanism that allows fast and direct access to memory items. Initially failed retrievals can result in backtracking, which leads to correct retrieval. We present an augmented version of the direct access model that allows backtracking to fai...
Can sentence comprehension impairments in aphasia be explained by difficulties arising from dependency completion processes in parsing? Two distinct models of dependency completion difficulty are investigated, the Lewis and Vasishth (2005) activation‐based model and the direct‐access model (DA; McElree, 2000). These models' predictive performance i...
An important property of aphasia is the variability in the performance between and within individual patients. However, there have been only a few systematic large-scale studies in a range of syntactic constructions and tasks that make it possible to investigate variability and to evaluate the quantitative predictions of competing models of sentenc...

Background: It is a well-established finding that individuals with aphasia have difficulties in using morpho-syntactic cues to determine the meaning of non-canonical sentences, such as object relative clauses (ORCs). While non-brain-damaged speakers can process ORCs disambiguated through unambiguous case marking more easily than number marking (i.e...
This poster presents my empirical bachelor thesis. Herbert, Hickin, Howard, Osborne and Best (2008) have developed a protocol to measure the conversational performance of people with aphasia (PwA) and in particular to measure possible transfer of improvements to spontaneous speech after word retrieval therapy.
The aim of the empirical work was to...
The cross-linguistic finding of greater demands in processing object relatives as compared
to subject relatives in individuals with aphasia and non-brain-damaged speakers has been
explained within the Relativized Minimality approach. Based on this account, the asymmetry
is attributed to an element intervening between the moved element and its
extra...
Exploring generalisation following treatment of language deficits in aphasia can provide insights into the functional relation of the cognitive processing systems involved. In the present study, we first review treatment outcomes of interventions targeting sentence processing deficits and, second report a treatment study examining the occurrence of...

Introduction
Individuals with aphasia (IWAs) often demonstrate chance performance in the comprehension of object relative clauses (ORCs) in off-line sentence-picture verification tasks (e.g., Burchert, De Bleser, & Sonntag, 2003). Regarding the impact of morphological features, Burchert et al. (2003) observed that IWAs’ comprehension of German ca...
The presence or absence of generalization after treatment can provide important insights into the functional relationship between cognitive processes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the cognitive processes that underlie sentence comprehension and production in aphasia. Using data from seven participants who...

Die vorliegende Studie beschreibt eine Überprüfung der Wirksamkeit des semantischen Wiederholungsprimings zur Behandlung des mündlichen Bildbenennens bei Aphasie (Laine & Martin, 1996; Martin, Fink, & Laine, 2004). Teilnehmer der Pilotstudie war ein deutschsprachiger Patient mit erhaltenen semantischen Fähigkeiten und einer post-semantisch bedingte...

LEMO (Lexikon modellorientiert) ist ein Verfahren zur modellorientierten Untersuchung von Störungen der Wortverarbeitung bei Aphasie, Dyslexie und Dysgraphie. In LEMO können erhaltene und gestörte Leistungen bei verschiedenen sprachlichen Aktivitäten (z.B. Wortverständnis, Benennen, Lesen, Schreiben nach Diktat usw.) differentialdiagnostisch ermitt...
PhoMo-Kids ist eine psycholinguistisch fundierte Aufgabensammlung für die systematische Untersuchung phonologischer Fähigkeiten bei Kindern. Ermöglicht wird eine modellorientierte Eingrenzung sowohl rezeptiver wie auch expressiver Defizite phonologischer Teilfähigkeiten, um so eine störungsspezifische Therapie zu gewährleisten.

Agrammatism is-among others, characterized by a deficit in producing grammatical structures. Of specific difficulty is the utilization of complex, non-canonical sentence structures (e.g. object-questions, passives, object-clefts). Several studies have documented positive effects when applying a specific treatment protocol in terms of increasingly c...
The aim of the single case study was to evaluate two different treatment procedures to improve reading skills with a German-speaking deep dyslexic. Generally, in treatment studies for deep dyslexia, retraining of grapheme-phoneme correspondences is described, but hardly any treatment focuses on reactivating residual functions of the semantic-lexica...
There have been relatively few single case studies concerned with the remediation of spelling deficits among developmental
impairments. Among these there have been a small number that targeted specific components of the spelling process and used
linguistic theories as theoretical underpinning for the development of remediation procedures. This sing...
Die vorliegende Studie untersucht die Lesefehler eines 10jährigen Jungen (OL) mit Entwicklungsdyslexie, der bei seinen Leseversuchen ausschließlich eine buchstabierende Lesestrategie anwendete. OL zeigte eine starke Beeinträchtigung in der Entwicklung sowohl der lexikalischen und als auch der nichtlexikalischen Leseroute. Im Rahmen einer detaillier...
Eine in der Literatur oft diskutierte Hypothese über die Ursache von Entwicklungsdyslexie ist die Annahme eines Defizits der phonologischen Bewußtheit (Goswami & Bryant, 1990). In detaillierten Einzelfallstudien über entwicklungsbedingte Lesestörungen wurden Schwierigkeiten der phonologischen Bewußtheit bei Entwicklungsbeeinträchtigungen der nichtl...
