Corpus Description
The Quick Aphasia Battery (QAB; Wilson et
al., 2018) was administered to 16 individuals with chronic post-stroke
aphasia, 3 times each, and scored independently by 2 raters to establish
test-retest and inter-rater reliability. The Western Aphasia Battery
(WAB) was also administered to these patients to assess concurrent
validity of the QAB. For more information about the QAB, please see our website.

Acknowledgements
We thank the participants for agreeing to share audiovisual recordings
of their language evaluations with the aphasia research community. The
QAB was administered by Dana Eriksson, Stefanie Lauderdale, and Melodie
Yen, and scored by Sarah Schneck and Jillian Lucanie. The connected
speech samples were transcribed by Sarah Schneck. The videos were edited
by Sweta Ghati.
