Conflict Adaptation in Aphasia: Upregulating Cognitive Control for Improved Sentence Comprehension.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study investigated conflict adaptation in aphasia, specifically whether upregulating cognitive control improves sentence comprehension.

Method

Four individuals with mild aphasia completed four eye tracking sessions with interleaved auditory Stroop and sentence-to-picture matching trials (critical and filler sentences). Auditory Stroop congruency (congruent/incongruent across a male/female voice saying "boy"/"girl") was crossed with sentence congruency (syntactically correct sentences that are semantically plausible/implausible), resulting in four experimental conditions (congruent auditory Stroop followed by incongruent sentence [CI], incongruent auditory Stroop followed by incongruent sentence [II], congruent auditory Stroop followed by congruent sentence [CC],
