Picture description and functional communication rating correlates in variants of primary progressive aphasia
These findings suggest that, while confrontation naming performance may be a proxy for functional communication in lvPPA and nfaPPA, a measure of connected speech is more representative of functional communication in svPPA because confrontation naming is typically more impaired in svPPA than in either of the other two variants.
