Abstract

    This paper introduced a manual of aphasia therapy which has been developed by the author. It includes some new devices which have not been seen in previously published manuals. In Japan most handbooks of aphasia therapy are based on the stimulation and/or the programmed learning methods developed in America. These methods have penetrated widely into Japan. However, there are very few manuals which give concrete advice to therapists on which materials to choose in the treatment of specified types of aphasia. The purpose of the present manual is to offer guidelines to aphasia therapists on 1) how to monitor symptoms, 2) how to classify them, 3) how to understand the underlying mechanisms of classified symptoms, 4) how to plan an effective menu for treatment, and 5) which modality is best stimulated. In addition, all processes have been computerized, so that therapists who use this manual would be able to diagnose their cases and choose effective materials for treatment automatically.
