TI  - The Thai version of Aachen aphasia test (THAI-AAT).
PG  - 601-10
AB  - The lack of a standardized Thai Language aphasia test raises difficulties not 
      only with the assessment and treatment planning for the clinical but also with 
      the accurate diagnosis and the reliable incidence for research on aphasiology in 
      Thailand. This study aimed to use the Thai version of German Aachen aphasia 
      (THAI-AAT), which is systematically adapted according to well-defined linguistic 
      criteria and psychometric requirement, to assess the language deficit of Thai 
      aphasic patients. The subjects participating in this study were 125 aphasia 
      patients, 60 non-aphasic brain damaged patients and 120 normal subjects. The 
      result revealed that the THAI-AAT is linguistically parallel in test design and 
      fulfills the same psychometric properties as the original. The THAI-AAT obtains 
      the goals: to differential diagnosis of aphasia distinguishing it from 
      non-aphasic disturbance and to identify the type of aphasic syndrome.
