Note. AQ=Western Aphasia Battery Aphasia Quotient score out of 100 (Kertesz, 1982). Subtype = aphasia subtype as determined by the Western Aphasia Battery. Picture naming = Percentage of correct responses and various error types on oral picture naming (Philadelphia Naming Test; Roach et al., 1996). Word repetition = A test of immediate word repetition, in percentages (Mirman et al., 2010). Nonword repetition = A test of immediate repetition of nonwords, in percentages (Mirman et al., 2010). STM span = test of verbal short term memory where participants repeat lists of words of increasing lengths; max score = 5 (Martin et al., 1994). Nonverbal comprehension = A picture-picture association test for nonverbal semantic comprehension, in percentages (Howard & Patterson, 1992). Word comprehension = Spoken word to picture matching test of comprehension in percentages (Mirman et al., 2010). Synonymy triplets = Test of verbal semantic relatedness involving choosing two of three words most similar in meaning, in percentages, with noun and verb subscores (Martin et al., 2006).
