An aphasic patient who has problems in using syntactic structural information appropriately will be unable to construct a normal semantic representation of an utterance. In this paper we report data from one patient, DE, who has a syntactic processing deficit but is able to interpret an utterance semantically. We explore the hypothesis that he structures the speech input into local phrases by conducting two word monitoring studies. In these studies, we manipulate the availability of various types of local and global structural information to determine how word monitoring latencies are affected by the presence or absence of different kinds of processing information. We conclude that DE does construct local structures as he processes an utterance, and that the kinds of information upon which these local structures are built depend upon the type of material to which he is listening. |
