Studies on mildly impaired speakers with aphasia conducted over the past 30 years have emphasized the clinical importance of the study of discourse production (Doyle et al. 1998, Armstrong 2000, Olness & Ulatowska 2002, Wright et al. 2005, Olness et al. 2010, Stark 2010). Since people with aphasia experience particular difficulties in their everyday communication, the study of their abilities at the discourse level is a natural and objective method for assessing the communicative effectiveness of these individuals in their everyday life. Moreover, the study of discourse production can contribute to a more accurate identification of the communication impairments of speakers with aphasia, as well as to the evaluation of their response to treatment. Among the various discourse types, narrative discourse has attracted more attention in aphasia research, mainly because the abstract narrative schema provides an objective framework for the analysis of speakers' spoken and written productions and their comparison to healthy controls. Different assessment tools including a variety of measures and elicitation tasks for narrative discourse production have been applied in aphasia research. This paper presents a comprehensive battery for the elicitation and evaluation of narrative discourse in Greek, which can serve as a valid and reliable assessment tool of narrative and communication abilities of speakers with aphasia, but also as a tool for planning effective treatment.
