Characteristics of Repetition Priming (Healthy Adults)

•Increases Reaction Time and Improves Accuracy on Subsequent Trials

•Persistent Across Time (Cave, 1997)

•Sensitive to # of Repetitions (Brown, Jones, & Mitchell, 1988; Reber, Gitelman, Parrish, & Mesulam, 2004 )

•Item Specific (Brown, Jones, & Mitchell, 1996)

•Generalizes to Alternate Exemplars (Koutstaal, Wagner, Rotte et al., 2001)

The current investigation examines the application of repetition to improve naming performance in individuals with chronic aphasia. Though repetition is a ubiquitous component of anomia treatment protocols, and may be one of the most potent sources of change, systematic investigation of the influence of stimulus dosage on naming performance has yet to be reported, particularly with respect to the acquisition and maintenance of trained items, generalization to untrained items and generalization to alternate exemplars of trained items.

DiscussionDiscussionIs Repetition Priming: Individuals with Aphasia Age- & Gender-Matched Control (Matched A103)

Persistent across Time?

Response Accuracy: Yes – A102 & A103 maintained improved response accuracy for trained items 6 weeks after last training session; awaiting results from A104 & A106; stronger priming effects for immediate post-training probes vs. delayed probes

Response Time: Yes for A102; A103 demonstrated a RT for accuracy trade-off

Reaction Time: Pending Maintenance Probes

Sensitive to # of Exposures/Session?

Response Accuracy: Inconclusive – may depend on underlying impairment or time post onset

Response Time: Inconclusive

Reaction Time: Yes – 7 ms difference between 4 trials per session and 1 trial per sessions

Item Specific?

Response Accuracy: No evidence of generalization to untrained items presented during experiment; however, note positive changes of BNT and PALPA scores pre/post

Response Time: Yes for A102, A104 & A106: trained items were responded to faster than untrained items; A103 demonstrated a RT for accuracy trade-off

Reaction Time: Yes – No evidence of generalization from trained to untrained items (143 ms difference between trained and untrained items)

Generalize to Alternate Exemplars?

Response Accuracy: Inconclusive, but no obvious trends towards stimulus generalization

Response Time: Yes for A102, A106; No for A103, A104

Reaction Time: Yes – 165 ms difference between first stimulus generalization probe to the last stimulus generalization probe
