Ch. 5
A systematic process designed to improve a person's well-being by reducing symptoms and increasing function after damage to or disease of the nervous system
neurorehabilitation
judgement, foresight, delayed gratification, and self regulation are all examples of which executive function domain
restraint
Transcortical sensory aphasia occurs due to damage in what area of the brain
association cortex
what are the types of attention
sustained, selective, divided, and alternating
words used to frame linguistic content, but that lack meaning
function words
neuroplasticity occurs through ...
dendritic sprouting, synaptogenesis, synaptic pruning, and neurogenesis
Symptoms of prefrontal dysfunction that happens after a TBI include
executive function deficits, impaired social communication, and impaired behavioral regulation
type of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) characterized by changes to language expression and comprehension and the first dementia symptom
primary progressive aphasia
_____ hemisphere performs fine coding, and the _____ hemisphere performs coarse coding
left; right
lack of appropriate language construction
agrammatism

LH
impairment of comprehension and/or production of prosody
aprosodia
inability to repeat linguistic information appropriately
repetition deficit
Swallowing therapy is an example for what kind of rehabilitation category
restorative
Symptoms of FTD-bv include
Executive function impairment, loss of empathy and interest in others, compulsive behaviors, distractibility, agitation, and socially inappropriate behavior
_____ of damage will predict the nature of the potential swallowing impairment
location
UUMN involves damage near what area
the motor strip
ability to produce formulaic speech utterances despite aphasia
automaticity
What are the three layers to the coin model
privilege, system of inequality, and oppression
Swallowing issues following prefrontal damage are mostly related to cognitive impairments that occur including
Attention deficits/distractibility, impulsivity, poor endurance, and reduced interest in food (apathy)
What are the types of progressive aphasias
Logopenic (think anomia)
Non-fluent/agrammatic (think Broca's)
Semantic (think Wernicke's)

an acquired impairment in the ability to form letters or forms words using letters
agraphia
