Butler-Hinz, Susan; And Others
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v33 n2 p269-80 Jun 1990
Two studies examined the ability to assign thematic roles and to coindex referentially dependent noun phrases in closed head injured adults (N=20), adult stroke patients (N=20), and normal adults (N=20). Results suggested that syntactic comprehension disturbances are similar following left cerebral hemisphere infarction and closed head injury. (Author/DB)
