Preliminary investigation of semantic memory assessments in Colombian adults with and without post-stroke aphasia
Purpose: This work evaluates clinical-standard semantic memory assessments in monolingual Spanish-speaking Colombian adults with and without aphasia, addressing 2 aims: (1) to examine whether event semantic memory is related to object and action semantic memory performance; and (2) to explore whethe...

| description | Purpose: This work evaluates clinical-standard semantic memory assessments in monolingual Spanish-speaking Colombian adults with and without aphasia, addressing 2 aims: (1) to examine whether event semantic memory is related to object and action semantic memory performance; and (2) to explore whether clinical-standard semantic memory assessments can distinguish between Colombian adults with and without aphasia. Methods: Object, action, and event semantic memory clinical assessments were used evaluate 16 adults with aphasia and 16 matched controls from Colombia. Bayesian linear mixed-effects models were used to examine the 2 specific aims. Results: First, results replicated and extended findings that object and action deficits may contribute to event semantic memory impairments in aphasia. Second, results suggested that clinical-standard semantic memory assessments may distinguish between people with and without post-stroke aphasia in a Colombian sample. Conclusion: This work identifies the need to continue developing sociolinguistically sensitive neuropsychological assessments, which are critical for establishing valid cognitive models and improving clinical diagnostics and treatments in diverse populations of stroke survivors. Resumen: Propósito: Este trabajo busca examinar evaluaciones clínicas de memoria semántica en adultos monolingües hispanohablantes colombianos con y sin afasia. Se describen dos objetivos: (1) examinar si la memoria semántica de eventos se relaciona con la memoria semántica de objetos y acciones; y (2) explorar si las evaluaciones clínicas de memoria semántica pueden distinguir entre adultos colombianos con y sin afasia. Métodos: Se utilizaron evaluaciones clínicas de memoria semántica de objetos, acciones y eventos en 16 adultos con afasia y 16 controles de Colombia. Se utilizaron modelos bayesianos lineales de efectos mixtos para examinar los dos objetivos específicos. Resultados: Primero, nuestros resultados replican y amplían hallazgos previos que indican que los déficits de memoria semantica de objetos y acciones contribuyen a las alteraciones de la memoria semántica de eventos en personas con afasia. Segundo, nuestros resultados sugirieren que las evaluaciones de memoria semántica clínica pueden distinguir entre personas con y sin afasia en una muestra colombiana. Conclusión: Este trabajo resalta la necesidad de desarrollar evaluaciones neuropsicológicas que sean sociolingüísticamente apropiadas. Estas evaluaciones son críticas para establecer modelos cognitivos válidos para cada población, y para mejorar el diagnóstico y tratamiento de poblaciones diversas con afasia, sobrevivientes de accidentes cerebrovasculares. |
