Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aim of this study was to obtain basic findings that would lead to the development of effective treatments for patients with aphasia who were experiencing difficulty with word recall. In this study, in order to clarify the effects of emotional processing in word recall in patients with aphasia, we measured the skin conductance response (SCR), which is an autonomic nervous system index, during tasks of confrontation naming. In the process of word recall, the results of this study suggest that brain-damaged patients may show different patterns of autonomic nervous response in SCR compared with healthy subjects. We pointed out that it is important to examine the relationship between the characteristics of the disorder in brain-damaged patients and the autonomic nervous response.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究では、これまで明らかにされていない失語症患者の喚語過程おける情動的処理の影響について、SCRを用いた検討をした。本研究の結果は、喚語過程において、健常者と比べ失語症患者をはじめとした脳損傷患者の自律神経反応が異なる可能性を示唆した。脳損傷患者の障害特性と自律神経反応との関連を検証してゆくことは、喚語障害に対するあらたな治療プログラムや介入法を構築するために重要である。
