Phonological Components Analysis in FrenchSign Language : a multiple case study
Year: 2025
Type: conference-abstract
Abstract: Background and aims: According to the literature, both sign language (SL) and spoken language (SpL) users can be similarly affected by aphasia, showing that the neural organization for language is modality independent[1,2]. While research has mainly addressed SL aphasia on a descriptive level, no studies have focused on the intervention level. Our aim is thus to see if the recovery mechanisms also are modality independent. To do so, we use the key parameters of sign formation[3] (handshape, orientation, movement, and location) to adapt a well-established anomia therapy, the Phonological Components Analysis[4] to the signed modality.
