We summarize recent published work concerning assessment and treatment of aphasia in bilingual and multilingual people and review current related models of treatment outcomes. As well, we discuss studies that address the recently debated topic of cognitive processes in bilingual individuals with aphasia, with a focus on the effects of bilingualism on aphasia recovery and its potential protective effects.
Providing assessment and treatment tools that best serve multilingual individuals with aphasia and unpacking the variables and mechanisms that underlie response to treatment have emerged as goals of several recent studies. Additionally, while findings are still contradictory, some empirical studies reported that aphasia may manifest less severely in multilingual individuals and may improve faster compared to in monolingual counterparts. The findings of recent studies with the focus of aphasia in multilingual individuals are crucial to understanding theoretical and clinical aspects of brain-related language impairment in multilingual people and to the study of language representation and processing in the brain.
我们总结了近期发表的有关双语和多语人群失语症评估与治疗的研究工作，并回顾了当前相关的治疗结果模型。此外，我们还讨论了针对近期备受争议的失语症双语个体认知过程这一话题的研究，重点关注双语对失语症恢复的影响及其潜在的保护作用。
提供最适合多语失语症患者的评估和治疗工具，以及剖析治疗反应背后的变量和机制，已成为近期多项研究的目标。此外，虽然研究结果仍存在矛盾，但一些实证研究报告称，与单语者相比，失语症在多语个体中可能表现得没那么严重，且恢复得更快。近期以多语个体失语症为重点的研究结果，对于理解多语人群大脑相关语言障碍的理论和临床方面，以及大脑中语言表征和处理的研究至关重要。
