AI Article Synopsis
- The article outlines the key communication issues linked to damage in the right hemisphere of the brain.
- It introduces the RIC Evaluation of Communication Problems in Right Hemisphere Dysfunction-2 (RICE-2), a test designed to assess communication problems in these patients.
- Preliminary study results suggest that the RICE-2 effectively differentiates between nonneurologically impaired individuals and those who have suffered a right hemisphere stroke, showcasing varied performance patterns among different cognitive-communicative levels.
Article Abstract
This article briefly describes the primary characteristics ofthe communication problems associated with right hemisphere damage. It presents a test battery, the RIC Evaluation of Communication Problems in Right Hemisphere Dysfunction-2 (RICE-2; Halper, Burns, Cherney, & Mogil, 1991), that has been developed for this population. Preliminary results of a study to validate the RICE-2 indicate that the tool is sensitive to measuring the differences between nonneurologically impaired individuals and right hemisphere stroke patients. Test scores of individual subjects who are representative of different cognitive-communicative severity levels are presented to illustrate variability in patterns of performance.
