In addition to its effects on language, Right Hemisphere Damage (RHD) can lead to
impairments in various cognitive domains such as attention, memory, and executive
functioning. These deficits may impede communication abilities, with specific challenges
like anosognosia (reduced awareness of deficits) and visual neglect (ignoring aspects of
visual stimuli) significantly affecting both spoken and written language. Deficiencies linked to RHD become more noticeable during the execution of complex,
multidimensional tasks, such as engaging in conversation. These impairments can exert a
substantial influence on functional performance in social and vocational settings.
