The objective of this quasi-experimental pilot study was to assess the effect that the presence of aphasia in participants and the presence of an accent in speakers had on the accurate identification of 30 medical sentences. 20 participants, 10 with aphasia and 10 age- and sex-matched adults without aphasia, pointed to printed medical sentences matching utterances produced in English by native and nonnative English speakers. Analysis showed participants with aphasia had significantly lower identification scores than participants without aphasia. Across speakers' languages, scores for sentences produced by the native English speaker were significantly higher than scores for the nonnative English speakers. No interaction effects occurred. Investigations should continue to explore the effect of acquired language disorders on the understanding of accented speech.
这项准实验性试点研究的目的是评估参与者存在失语症以及说话者带有口音对准确识别30个医学句子的影响。20名参与者，10名患有失语症，10名年龄和性别匹配的无失语症成年人，他们指向与以英语为母语和非英语为母语的人所说出的话语相匹配的印刷医学句子。分析表明，患有失语症的参与者的识别分数显著低于无失语症的参与者。在不同说话者的语言中，以英语为母语的人说出的句子的分数显著高于非英语为母语的人说出的句子的分数。未出现交互作用。研究应继续探索后天性语言障碍对带有口音言语理解的影响。
