Affective prosody, or the changes in rate, rhythm, pitch, and loudness that convey emotion,
has long been implicated as a function of the right hemisphere (RH), yet there is a dearth of …

Purpose We aimed to:(a) review existing data on the neural basis of affective prosody;(b)
test the hypothesis that there are double dissociations in impairments of expression and …

Background: Defects in expressing or understanding the affective or emotional tone of

(affective prosody) is common and disabling after right hemisphere (RH) stroke. These …

Prosody is an important feature of language, comprising intonation, loudness, and tempo.
Emotional prosodic processing forms an integral part of our social interactions. The main …

Unlike the aphasic syndromes, the organization of affective prosody in brain has remained
controversial because affective-prosodic deficits may occur after left or right brain damage …

Purpose: Hemispheric specialization for the comprehension and expression of linguistic and
emotional prosody is typically attributed to the right hemisphere. This study used techniques …

Although advances have been made regarding how the brain perceives emotional prosody,
the neural bases involved in the generation of affective prosody remain unclear and …

Background Individuals with affective‐prosodic deficits have difficulty understanding or
expressing emotions and attitudes through prosody. Affective prosody disorders can occur in …
