Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this investigation is to examine the evidence on emotion, language, and music, and propose a first step, in the form of a single-subject research design, to determine the most effective and efficient method for application to the rehabilitation of patients with aphasia. A single-subject adapted alternating treatment design will be used to compare two music conditions, using music with sung lyrics simultaneously with reading of the lyrics, and priming with music and sung lyrics followed by a reading of the lyrics, with a control condition using reading lyrics without music. Results are expected to provide evidence of independent versus shared processing of music and language at the phrase level applied to the behavior of human subjects with aphasia.
