Description
The progress of ten neologistic jargonaphasic patients was analyzed and compared, based on clinical observation and changes in total SLTA (Standard Language Test for Aphasia) rating scores between two points in time. Some claims have been reported that semantic and phonological paraphasias increase with the reduction of neologisms, resulting in practical speech that includes much information. The ten jargonaphasics studied here showed an apparent difference in their process of improvement : one patient improved so remarkably that he could express complicated matters, while the other nine patients plateaued at the level where they could have a simple conversation. A change in total SLTA rating scores indicates a good recovery of comprehension in all the cases, better utterance in six and improvement of writing in only three. Finally, continuous neologisms or more content words were found in some cases, which suggests that the mechanism of jargon speech varies by patient.
