Study Notes
Neuro 11:2 - Class Notes
- Slide Limits: No limit on the number of slides; a reasonable number are needed to tell the story. Some slides might take a long time, while others are quick.
- Slide Time: A slide a minute is a common guideline, but the purpose and content of the slide should dictate the time spent.
- Seminar Class Slides: In a 1-hour and 15-minute seminar, 75 slides are not uncommon.
- Slide Content Suggestions: Avoid excessive text; use visuals to express ideas. Core points only, and use visuals like diagrams and pictures. Short videos can be helpful.
- Aphasia Types: Different types of aphasia, including fluent (comprehension) and non-fluent (production) are discussed.
- Fluent Aphasia: Difficulty understanding spoken language, problems with reading input via visual modality or auditory input.
- Non-Fluent Aphasia: Difficulty with articulation. Core problem is linguistic: trouble finding the word.
- Aomia (a clinical term): This means difficulty finding the word, a word retrieval problem.
- Paraphasia: Errors in word choice. Can be phonological (similar sounding word) or semantic (semantically different word).
- Neologisms: Words with no meaning.
- Word Retrieval Problems: Difficulty finding the right word.
- Example of Aphasia (Enomia): A board game or card game where players have trouble with word retrieval.
- Neurological Disorders:
- Memory (clinical term): Difficulty with remembering words like "anomia."
- Importance of context: Emphasizes the importance of context for understanding how sentences are formed and meaning is conveyed.
- Categories of Aphasia (Examples): Wernicke's, transcortical, sensory, conduction, anomic, Broca's.
- General Deficits: Poor articulation, low verbal fluency, difficulties with writing, lacking prosody variation.
- Jargon in Speech: Frequent use of overused phrases that may or may not be meaningful in the current context. Also may indicate that comprehension skills are not as well preserved as might seem.
- Additional Examples: Fluent aphasia example; non-fluent aphasia; understanding language processing issues; phonological difficulties; and how to respond to students with possible comprehension issues.
- Specific Issues of Aphasia Students : Inability to reproduce sounds accurately, repeating others' words, inability to retrieve specific word choices they want, use of the same words all the time. Other issues, memory deficits, reduced comprehension, not aware they are having communication issues(anoagnosia)
- General Notes: Text-based communication may not always be as clear for those with language and comprehension deficits, but other forms of communication like videos and visuals may also be complicated. Visual aids, videos or other formats of delivering information may significantly help for those facing such issues.
- Diagnosis and Categorization: Diagnosis can change over time, but someone may not move from one category to another, though changes may occur within a category . It is noted that Broca's aphasia is seen as a prototypical type of non-fluent aphasia.
