Aims

- to introduce students to the classification and to the semeiology of language disorders (neurolinguistics) and to the semeiology of the cognitive disorders resulting from acquired cerebral impairments. A cognitive analysis of the disorders will be emphasised during the course in order to make their interpretation in terms of psychological mechanisms possible.

Main themes

Clinical presentation of the main aphasic and relevant neuropsychological syndromes : amnesias, apraxias, agnosias as well as more specific syndromes (frontal syndromes, ...)
Introduction to the cognitive analysis of the language disorders going beyond the semeiology to identify of the psychological mechanisms whose alteration is responsible for the observable disorders.
