Sažetak
Aphasia is an impairment of language, affecting the production and comprehension of speech and the ability to read or write. Aphasia is always due to injury to the brain, most commonly from a stroke. It may affect mainly a single aspect of language use but more commonly, multiple aspects of communication are impaired. In Croatian, possession can be expressed by possessive adjective, possessive pronoun, possessive genitive and possessive dative. Considering these facts, it can be assumed that patients with aphasia would have difficulties in recognition and use of correct language forms for expression of possession. This field is not yet covered sufficiently in existing literature. The main goal of this study is to identify are there any differences in comprehension and differentiation language forms for expression of possession and speed of correct form detection in patients with aphasia and control group using e-prime. Special attention will be focused on possessive adjective use. Participants consisted of 15 patients with motor aphasia that are involved in speech and language therapy in SUVAG Polyclinic and control group consisted of 15 people with no brain injury or language deficit reported. The results have shown that the control group showed greater speed and accuracy in understanding the possessive adjective.
