Summary

This trial looks at different types of feedback people with aphasia get when speaking to see what helps them communicate better.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking adults aged 21-75 who have aphasia after a stroke, can perform the study tasks, and have no severe hearing or cognitive issues. Healthy controls with normal speech and no neurological disorders are also needed. Both groups must be right-handed.
What is being tested?
The study tests how visual feedback training affects speech in people with aphasia by using EEG and fMRI to track brain activity during speech tasks under altered auditory conditions. It aims to improve communication abilities and develop targeted treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
There may not be direct side effects from the interventions as this is a non-invasive study involving behavioral training and brain imaging techniques like EEG and MRI.
