Note. FDR correction was applied to account for multiple comparisons. Correlation strength is indicated, where bold italic = strong (1.00–.700), bold = moderate (.699–.400), and italic = weak (.399–.100). ASHA FACS = American Speech-Language-Hearing Association Functional Assessment of Communication Skills for Adults; CI = Communication Independence; QDC = Qualitative Dimensions of Communication; WAB = Western Aphasia Battery; LQ = Language Quotient; CQ = Cortical Quotient; AQ = Aphasia Quotient; CLQT = Cognitive-Linguistic Quick Test; BNT = Boston Naming Test; PAPT = Pyramids and Palm Trees Test; n.s. = not significant.
