Brief description of study

Purdue Aphasia Research Lab invites individuals with stroke-induced aphasia to participate in a NIH-funded research project. The goal of the project is to examine how different types of cues facilitate sentence production and comprehension in persons with aphasia. The findings will lead to development of more cost-effective interventions for persons with aphasia. Participants will complete non-invasive tasks such as comprehensive aphasia evaluation, computerized language tasks, language games, and eyetracking-while-speaking.
