THE 3 JARGONS OF JARGONAPHASIA: SEMANTIC, PHONEMIC AND JARGON
Journal Title: Acta Neuropsychologica - Year 2018, Vol 16, Issue 2
Abstract
In this paper the authors will discuss the nature of jargonaphasia. Any dictionary definition of the word “jargon” will indicate that once again the medical science of aphasia usurped what was originally a lay term. Some researchers have gone as far as modifying a neologism in adults with that sort of jargon by called recognizable ones “target related” and “non-target related. Even studies of the so-called “semantic pa ra pha sias,” go way beyond what is need to describe any of the three jargons – much less to describe “semantic jargon.” Finally, as we shall see, it is often the case that jargon samples have been elicited from naming tasks, mostly object naming. Nevertheless, it is typical to engage the jargon subjects in tasks that require spontaneous stretches of speech discourse. The complex nature of Jargonaphasia which involve a heterogeneity that will ultimately drive many subcategories of it is discussed. The authors described the 3 jargons of jargonaphasia.<br/><br/>
