Abstract


Speech ts the verbal means of communicating. Speech consists of articulation, voice and fluency. In mania speech is rapid and loud that is difficult to interrupt. In extreme cases speech may become so disorganized that it is incomprehensible. The present study aims at to compare the dysfunction in receptive and expressive speech in patients with Bipolar Affective Disorder, Mania and Single Episode Mama. The sample consists of 30 bipolar manic and 30 single episode manic patients selected from different wards of Ranchi Institute of Neuropsychiatry and Allied Sciences (RINPAS) Kanke, Ranchi. Scales of receptive speech and expressive speech from Luria Nebraska Neuropsychological Battery were administered individually. The findings revealed that there is significant difference between two groups on both receptive and expressive speech scale. Patients with BAD (mania) showed more dysfunction in receptive speech and expressive speech in comparison to patients with single episode mania.
