Neurolinguistics and language loss.
Afasia
Afasia de Broca
Speech and writing slow, in severe cases, completely inhibited.
Afasia de Wernicke
Speech and writing are virtually intact, but because the sensory cortex is damaged, patients have a lot of trouble processing linguistic information.
Surgical tests
It has progressed since the 19th century.
Alternative treatments for aphasia:
1.Hemispherectomy
It is performed on children under the age of ten.
When an adult undergoes a left hemispherectomy, they are completely aphasic.
Split brain operation
It was developed in the 1970s.
The surgeon makes a front-to-back incision along the corpus callosum.
Speech and language disorders.
Dissolution of damaged brains
stuttering
Most common articulation problems among speech therapists.
Stuttering is caused by the absence of non-extended lateralisation of speech in the left hemisphere.
It occurs more frequently in boys than in girls.
Autism
It has long been debated by opposing sides, who have argued for a behavioural or neurological origin.
Speech loss due to inherited disorders
Language dissolution appears to be inherited.
Down's syndrome
Occurs approximately once in every 600 births
Alzheimer's disease
As people age, they often complain of difficulties in remembering names.
Memory limitations that may become evident as we age appear to be mainly due to short-term memory.
