Recently, there has been growing interest in understanding how nonlinguistic cognitive problems such as impaired attention might negatively affect the linguistic abilities of adults with aphasia. This article begins with a summary of research focused on the relationship between attention and language impairments in aphasia and a discussion of why it might be important for clinicians to address the attention abilities of their aphasic patients. Also discussed are formal and informal measures for quantifying and qualifying attention problems, treatment strategies for directly or indirectly remediating attention problems in patients with aphasia, and empirical support for such treatment.
最近，人们越来越关注理解诸如注意力受损等非语言认知问题如何可能对失语症成年人的语言能力产生负面影响。本文首先总结了聚焦于失语症中注意力与语言障碍之间关系的研究，并讨论了临床医生关注失语症患者注意力能力为何可能很重要。还讨论了量化和界定注意力问题的正式和非正式措施、直接或间接纠正失语症患者注意力问题的治疗策略以及此类治疗的实证支持。
