Spontaneous language of 18 patients suffering from Huntington's disease and 15 dysarthric controls suffering from Friedreich's ataxia were investigated. In addition, language functions in various modalities were assessed with the Aachen Aphasia Test (AAT). The Huntington patients exhibited deficits in the syntactical complexity of spontaneous speech and in the Token Test, confrontation naming, and language comprehension subtests of the AAT, which are interpreted as resulting from their dementia. Errors affecting word access mechanisms and production of syntactical structures as such were not encountered.
对18名患有亨廷顿舞蹈症的患者以及15名患有弗里德赖希共济失调且存在构音障碍的对照者的自发语言进行了研究。此外，运用亚琛失语症测试（AAT）对各种语言模式下的语言功能进行了评估。亨廷顿舞蹈症患者在自发言语的句法复杂性、AAT的符号测试、对答命名及语言理解子测试中均表现出缺陷，这些缺陷被解释为是由其痴呆症所致。未发现影响词汇提取机制及句法结构生成的错误。
