Abstract

Introduction: Alzheimer Disease (AD) is a neurological disorder associated with the progressive damage of memory and problems in communication and language skills. The examination of language in AD was less studied; therefore, this research aimed to compare linguistic characteristics between AD patients and their healthy counterparts. Materials and Methods: A total of 32 patients with AD (16 women and 16 men) with an Mean± SD age of 77± 7. 41 years, and their healthy peers (19 women and 13 men) with an Mean± SD age of 81. 34± 6. 04 years participated in this study. Both groups were evaluated with the Persian bedside version of western aphasia battery. The results were assessed by the Independent t test. The significance level was set at less than 0. 05. Results: The mean scores of each test and the general criterion for the adversity quotient index were significant between the two groups (P<0. 001). The highest difference was in continuous and naming indices, and the least difference was seen in the repeat index. Conclusion: The AD considerably affects all oral language skills; therefore, patients are significantly weaker than healthy individuals.
