Abstract
SummaryThirteen adult aphasics (L-CVA) were administered the Porch Index of Communicative Ability at intervals throughout language rehabilitation. The time, amount, and pattern of change in PICA subtest scores were investigated. All subtest scores showed positive change. The average time required for peak improvement in overall score was 8-94 months post onset. Receptive language processes improved more quickly and completely than expressive. The course of language recovery appears somewhat predictable in terms of time, amount, and pattern of improvement.
