Abstract

This study focuses on the pattern of impairments seen in a new case KT, diagnosed with non- fluent progressive aphasia (NFPA), a degenerative disorder of language production. A systematic examination of KT’s performance on a wide range of language production tasks (i.e., repetition, reading, spellin...
