Abstract

Objective To investigate the repeat mechanism in Broca aphasia patients, to guide the language rehabilitation training. Methods Broca aphasia patients was selected with aphasia battery of China; A total of 20 Broca aphasia patients and 20 normal subjects, collected in our hospitals from August 2014 to July 2015, were performed neuropsychological tests: picture naming test, listening and pointing test, repeating test. Results The accuracy of listening and pointing in Broca aphasia patients and normal subjects was 62.50% and 98.20%, that of repeating in Broca aphasia patients and normal subjects was 23.20% and 100.00%, and that of picture naming in Broca aphasia patients and normal subjects was 9.30% and 100.00%, with significant ddiferences (P repeating>picture naming, with significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion The mastery semantic function in Broca aphasia patients is relatively complete; voice activation results in obstacles in retelling; therefore, in the language rehabilitation, voice activated training can be focused on, and it can reach twice the result with half the effort. Key words: Broca aphasia; Repeat path; Mastery semantics
