Wernicke's and Broca's Aphasia

[ao405]

Why is the first doctor wearing sun glasses in a darkened room?

[torktt]

these guys are hot ....très sexy

[Vojak3]

This young man had a stroke?

[agdiazrio]

During the interview the doctor says to the patient that he doesn't understand... YOU CANNOT SAY THAT TO A PATIENT WHO HAS WERNICKE'S APHASIA, you evaluate and by what he says you know what to do in a rehabilitation program

[vde7]

This looks like a METU dorm room in Ankara Turkey and these students are clearly acting. Good acting yet they should add a note to that effect as an ethical matter.

[thymalinum]

it's just a cognitive video, they change their parts, first part is Wernicke's aphasia, the second one is Broca's

[1ironaut]

these guys are in a dorm room doing a school project.

[solakgitar]

Vay, vay, vay. Çok güzelmiş bu, cidden başarılı ve yararlı buldum. Teşekkürler!

[jawbraeka]

This is a simulation of what the aphasia types are... not real... but i'm sure if you looked them up you will find real ones...

[GAGAGAmonster]

aweh ): this breaks my heart

the patients look so sweet <3

[evodem]

Supersiniz abiii!!!!! hahaha nerden geldi akliniza boyle bisey yapmak! :D

[StalinKanal]

Really so poor ;/

[marowak1337]

rofl, this is obviously fake. first doctor = second patient.

[JScarper]

6 people obviously have something worse than aphasia.

[AuggieX1]

very good video. Thank you for posting this. 

[WeltenbrandBM]

This is not at all funny. People sufferung REAL aphasia have to struggle with it every second of their lives.

[faiz461]

@WeltenbrandBM you are right,it is not funny.

but i dont think the people in the video are in any way making fun of people with aphasia. i think they just did a video to show what aphasia is. and i think they did a pretty good job at it.

[foxtrotgirlie]

These are probably psych students who made a video for class and forgot to say REINACTMENT... hehehe

[SymphUK]

If you want to see a genuine young person with aphasia, look at my daughter's video just search for Sarah Scott Stroke

[jellybeanie53]

FAKE

[JScarper]

@jellybeanie53

O RLY?

[hunkydorimatty]

Im studying this seriously for post-grad. Why do you post this BS?! I dont need a bad reenactment from poor speakers of English.

[euesthetophorist]

@hunkydorimatty if I was researching my post-grad on YouTube, I would at least refrain from posting BS comments so that people wouldn't discover my laziness.

I for one found this useful. If u r serious about research stop trolling & contact ur uni psych dept, they ought to have some vids of real patients.

[truegirl2anna]

This is a fucking reinaction... Twats need to state that... These are fucking actors, the doctor is the same man as is the 2nd patient.

[Aarzis]

taktir ettim.tesekkurler

[DaculDatDracu]

Too fake :)) But still ingenious

[scorpioo]

the first is wernicke's? i tot he understood the doctor's prompt to describe but his description is bad so isn't that broca's..? =X not sure

[terminaldeity]

@scorpioo

His speech is fluent but does not make much sense, which is indicative of Wernicke's.

[georgianagina]

@scorpioo Perhaps he figured it out through the doctor's gestures.

[always2bfaithful]

I think this must be some kind of a school project to demonstrate the differences between the two syndromes. It's obvious they just changed places, and the words the second dude was saying is an almost exact transcript from words a case study patient was recorded to have said when asked about his dentist appointment.

[vmbhimura]

why does it seem to me that the first doctor looks very alike to the second patient???

[OMANmobil]

@vmbhimura I think that this is an act. Patient with Broca's dont look like him in demeanour!! STRANFGE



[skaterblm1]

@vmbhimura that's just a symptom of the disease

[TheGypsykilla]

he would make a create cartoon character. lmao

[nathantruant]

You mentioned his inability to speak English, but your inability to type it is far more hilarious. Moron.

[dvac2000]

Thank you so much for this video!! I have never experienced observing patients with aphasia and this video really helped me to understand more about it!!

Thank you so much!!!

[Lehmann108]

Good job modeling Broca's and Wernicke's aphasia

[08may1]

My son knows he's lost his words, we do lots of therapy and word recall exercises, in the hopes that eventually he'll be able to express his thoughts at least in simple sentences that can be understood by others.

We use yes and no questions and charades when he's trying to communicate. It would be horribly frustrating for him if he had no one to care enough to try and understand him.

[TheGypsykilla]

this guy just cant speak english

[luxfero]

i think these choline supplements fucked up my temporal lobe

[luxfero]

i dont know why but when i read now i cant comprehend a whole paragraph without reading it again. before i took these choline supplements, i was able to comprehend paragraphs without reading them. i think they choline supplements

[samir554]

I feel bad for Broca Aphasia patients because it can get very frustrating for them to choose the right words, or at least spell out a proper sentence quickly..

[hedonist73]

is it just me or are these the same guys only they switched places...?

[jsambition]

omg i think they did. looking at the 2 vids both look like they just switch places completely same goatee and everything!

[gloriakenny]

they look similar but the guy on white coat has different facial hair

[JAFFERSH]

@gloriakenny no he doesn't he has the SAME exact style. look again

[makkyhero]

cant u explain more about broca's n wernicke's aphasia? and i want to ask about dyphasia and aphasia is same?

[carlosmdiaz1]

Broca's aphasia - note the pt will sound like a caveman - "me hurt foot", pt will not be fluent but can comprehend language.

Wernicke's apahasia- pt is fluent but can not comprehend language note pt saying things like "I call dog on book t.v is here, can't eat"

also note hemianopias and quadrantinopias associated with wernickes

[TexasTechStudent]

He almost sounds like christopher walken.

[AREDCITA]

???? they have a neurological disorder, it's not that they can`t speak english

[Bernice2105]

learn some psychology oJameso

[dertuy]

zaten bu kadar kötü bir ingilizceyi anlamak mümkün değil...

[frankv789]

I think it's weird how the doctor interviewing patient 2 always nods his head as if he's understanding what he's saying.

[MonjoNinu]

pero tiene una incapacidad de nombrar objetos, repetir frases y por mas que tenga un habla fluida, la articulación de la palabra es defectuosa.

[MonjoNinu]

El primero no es Afasia de Wernicke. El problema que tiene en este caso es que tiene afectado el fascículo arcuato que es el que comunica el área de Wernicke con el área de Broca. Es una Afasia de conducción. Él entiende lo que le están preguntando (cosa que no pasaria en una afasia de Wernicke ya que tendría afectada la comprension y no entendería la orden que le da el médico de que le describa la foto)...

[lauts107]

2nd patient's hands are bone white o.o

[AliceMarx]

it's the light

[LastTree]

Is this caused by a head injury?

[yassir228685]

it can be caused by head injury and stroke. Im assuming these guys are from head injury

[avisoka]

OMG the second guy in the video (wearing the black sweater) looks exactly like the macedonian singer Tose Proseki...wow!! like his twin.

[Ahames85]

And he´s very handsome !

[Scatterbrain50]

do these patients realize that they aren't conveying their thoughts properly?

[madllamaswatwat]

i read that people with broca's aphasia know they're not conveying their thoughts properly. they have very good comprehension but when it comes to speaking they struggle with saying words and putting them together in a fluent manner. it can be very frustrating for them. people with wernicke's aphasia have poor comprehension and believe that what their saying makes sense to other people. they can go on talking blissfully convinced they are carrying out a conversation and expression their ideas.

[MyJk552]

Yes, wernicke's aphasia is a more deeper disorder.

[azrabel]

thanks for the video. I must agree with pegueroxx, i think the first patient is presenting a conduction aphasia. Best regards.

[Pegueroxx]

nice educational video! the second one is really a brocas aphasia but i think you got the first one wrong, in my opinion hes got Conduction Aphasia, where he can understand what your asking to him, he have a mild fluent speech but he keeps repeating like he cant communicate between this 2 centers, in a wernickes aphasia the patient wont answer how is he or describe whats in the picture because he cant understand what you are actually asking him. for more about conduction aphasia visit Wikipedia

[papayasconcrema]

I agree with you

[droh231]

broca aphasia is absolutely not fluent -dr husam odeh -physical medicine and rehabilitation

[gsfirat41]

hocam ben amerikada yasiyorum okula

gidiyorum, neurobiology dersi aliyorum. Broca's ve Wernicke hastaliklarinda video ariyordum siz ciktiniz.:))

yeah, a lot of Americans who are watching this including me can get a little mixed up because of the heavy accent these guys use plus the grammar errors when speaking.and in wernicke's the patient is repeating the words way too much:)) you gotta give these guys a credit because english is not their first language.

[weckerr]

um eeeeerrrrrrrrrr

man eeeeeeeeerrrrrerrrrrrrrrr

errrrrrrrrrr

man err with that eeerrrrrrrrrrr tie eeeerrrrrrrrrrr

rrr

errrrrrrrr

lol

[SGUSOMUSA]

Does anyone recognize this accent??? I dont think its Russian...Somewhere in teh Balkan's perhaps??

[enginCan88]

Turkish :)

[enginCan88]

what do you mean by saying this is not a fair study? We had a project on this topic, and we had to record a video about it. We also study these disorders, and we are aware of the features of them. We don't mislead anyone anyway. If you don't like this, feel free to record a perfect one! What we do here is to share the video.

PS. Yes that is a dorm room. What is wrong with that?!

[curlyprincess1]

This doesn't seem like a fair study because their first language isn't English anyway, surely?? This would surely impair their abilities more.

[xyfnda]

LOL. that doesn't look like a dorm room to you?

[vampiregoth9]

With an aphasia, you retain a dominant language if you're multilingual, and it doesn't have to be what was once your stronger language. No one knows why. This person may choose to speak in English because they can't express themselves (or they feel they can't) in their stronger tongue. In that regard, it's perfectly fair.

[vegansquared]

Broca patients usually can understand spoken and written language, but they can't produce either. Wernicke patients don't even understand.

[Finarda]

Broca's aphasia can be even worse than that - sometimes the patient can't even express any words they intend to say, instead only repeating the word that happened to be stuck in their mind before the aphasia happened. There was a famous case called "Tan" because that was all he could say. I can also speak from personal experience as I experience Broca's aphasia when I get a migraine. Sometimes I have no "word" thoughts, no words at all. I can still understand speech though and I'm aware.

[xyfnda]

Bullshit. You don't just get brain damage from normal migraines. These people NEVER recover.

[townc123321]

hehe, you all sound like undergrad psych students desperate to show off your knowledge, humor me and msg back if this is the case.

P.s- why do i think this, well because i am an undergrad psych student myself!

[enginCan88]

no, the case was not like that. we're students of department of foreign language education. we had a project on linguistics. hope you like it :)

[Guile1989]

Well I haven't posted any show-off comments, but I',also a Psychology undergraduate, studying at the University of Glasgow. I've only really started getting lectures on Cognitive Psychology, and I've only really skimmed the surface of issues like the Aphasia's, the degenerative diseases, understanding and acquisition of language fromchildhood and so forth. So honestly, any more advanced Psychologists out there who can give me any particular relative pointers in this topic, I'd be grateful.

[1210donna]

some people with autism have these

[melodyxp]

Broca's: difficult word production, loss of fluency, telegraphic speech, difficulties with production and comprehension of syntax, and painfully aware of their problem

Wernicke': errors of word comprehension and production without loss of fluency, some semantic confusion in both production and comprehension, they are unware

[JBurneo]

whoa. those are horrible diseases :c never thought broccas aphasia could be that bad

[justpoo]

It's not a disease. It's a disorder.

[curiousone9019]

"never though broca's aphasia could be that bad"

looks more like wernicke's aphasia to me. I'm studying for a psych exam right now so correct me if i'm wrong

[vitr1ol]

I'd say the first could is Wernickes, second is Broca's.

[metabog]

Aphasia aside, his acccent sounds like popeye. :-)

But it's a horrible disease, fortunately it can resolve spontaneously.

[randomjen1]

He isn't sputtering nonsense, but having frequent perseverations. Perseverations are words/phrases that a patient can't control when they interject into their speech. This is common with fluent aphasias.

[princeeteuk]

Is the person with Wernicke's aphasia actually aware that he's sputtering nonsense? It's just weird that he keeps going on talking.. Nevertheless, it's sad to see them find difficulty in even expressing themselves..

[paxlie00]

Generally they are unaware, but they probably know they aren't getting across what they want. As randomjen1 says, he's not stuttering nonsense; Wernicke's area controls lexical retrieval so with damage there's often (mainly) "nonsense" words that may comply with linguistic rules in a language (but aren't words) in a relatively intact syntax and natural rhythm. Also, random words that don't seem to belong in context will be named. ("Word salad")

[lozenger69]

the wernwick's aphasiac is often unaware that the speech does not make sense, unlike a brocca's aphasiac. A person with wernicke's receptive dysphasia creates meaningless words (neolgisms) or replaces the fluent speech with partly correct or incorrect words to the words they intended(paraphasia)

[BeeBsi]

No they're unaware of it

[Yesilefebagimlisi]

türkce yapsaydınız ya

Part 1. Wernicke's hastaligi

Doctor: Nasilsin Bruce

Bruce: Iyiyim, nerdeyse oluyorum, iyiyim, iyiyim.

Doktor: Tamam Bruce. Simdi benim icin bir sey yapmani istiyorum. Burdaki fotografda ne gordugunu aciklarmisin lutfen.

Bruce: burda Yesil bir agac var ki rengi yesil.

[enginCan88]

Burada gözlüklü doktor ve broca hastası ben oluyorum :D hehe..
