| Abstract | Attention is a control-system of neuronal activity, which modulates neuroplasticity. Attempts to promote functional recovery after brain injury by improving attention have been infrequent. We tested this idea on aphasic patients. 15 stroke patients participated in a training of selective attention (PC programs CogniPlus and "Konzentration"; ca. 15 sessions over 3 weeks complementing standard therapy), whereas 13 further patients served as controls. Training effects were evaluated using the Go/Nogo test (2 versions; TAP) and the Kurze Aphasieprfung. The training did not produce group differences in attention and aphasia and appeared ineffective under the given circumstances. However, the patients, who showed most attentional improvement, exhibited - as trend - fewest aphasic symptoms, supporting partially the hypothesis of plasticity modulation by attention. |
