Keywords:
Aphasia, verbal expression, communication disruptionAbstract
This study reports the verbal expression disruption of Thai aphasic persons as perceived by their family members as the most salient to their mutual communication and the most disruptive to their daily communication. The family members were first interviewed and then asked to complete a questionnaire. It was found that “aphasic persons†word-finding difficulties’ was the specific verbal expressive characteristics which families perceived as the most salient and disruptive. Identifying the perceptions of the families through both interview and questionnaire procedures appeared to have advantages in tapping information about communication disability and handicaps that could lend valuable insights in planning ecological valid treatment.
