Description

     We report a case of neologistic jargonaphasia accompanied by stereotypic occurrences of neologisms. The neologisms in the patient's speech varied according to phonological and/or semantic associations. This characteristic pattern of neologism variations suggests a phonological as well as a semantic breakdown that may contribute to the genesis of neologistic jargon. We try to account for the stereotypic occurrence of neologisms using the interactive spreading activation model of language processing postulated by Dell (1986) , and we discuss some aspects of phonological and semantic disorganization in neologistic jargonaphasia from the viewpoint of cognitive neurolinguistics.
