The AIQ-21 is a person-centered tool that allows individuals with aphasia to express and rate the impact of living with aphasia, with or without spoken language. Its key functions are to:

  • Quantify aspects of living with aphasia

  • Enable individuals to share how aphasia affects their lives, regardless of language ability

  • Encourage reflection on personal identity as someone with aphasia

  • Facilitate meaningful dialogue between service providers and individuals to highlight the personal significance of aphasia

El AIQ-21 es una herramienta centrada en la persona que permite a los individuos con afasia expresar y evaluar el impacto de vivir con afasia, con o sin el uso del lenguaje hablado. Sus funciones principales son:

  • Cuantificar aspectos de la vida con afasia

  • Permitir que los individuos compartan cómo la afasia afecta sus vidas, independientemente de sus habilidades lingüísticas

  • Fomentar la reflexión sobre la identidad personal como alguien con afasia

  • Facilitar un diálogo significativo entre los proveedores de servicios y los individuos para resaltar la importancia personal de la afasia

The AIQ is administered in the patient’s dominant language during the initial session of both pre- and post-therapy assessments. It is also administered at the six-month follow-up and the twelve-month follow-up.

Administering the AIQ prior to any other tests is crucial because:

  • Influence on Responses: Other assessments that may be challenging for the patient could influence their responses. If a patient experiences difficulty or frustration with other tests, it may impact their emotional state and willingness to engage in the AIQ. Frustration can lead to less accurate or less honest responses.

  • Genuine Perspective: By starting with the AIQ, clinicians can obtain a more genuine perspective on the patient’s experiences with aphasia. This approach allows the evaluation to take place without the interference of test fatigue or anxiety from other assessments.


El AIQ se administra en el idioma dominante del paciente durante la sesión inicial de las evaluaciones previas y posteriores a la terapia. También se administra en el seguimiento de seis meses y en el de doce meses.

Es crucial administrar el AIQ antes de cualquier otra prueba porque:

  • Influencia en las respuestas: Otras evaluaciones que pueden ser desafiantes para el paciente podrían influir en sus respuestas. Si un paciente experimenta dificultad o frustración con otras pruebas, esto puede afectar su estado emocional y su disposición a participar en el AIQ. La frustración puede llevar a respuestas menos precisas o menos honestas.

  • Perspectiva genuina: Al comenzar con el AIQ, los clínicos pueden obtener una perspectiva más genuina sobre las experiencias del paciente con la afasia. Esto permite que la evaluación se realice sin la interferencia de la fatiga de las pruebas o la ansiedad de otras evaluaciones.

The AIQ-21 has 21 questions and usually takes about 20 to 30 minutes to complete. It is divided into three sections: activities, participation, and emotional state/well-being. Each section focuses on different parts of living with aphasia.

To make it easier to understand, the questions use a repetitive format and include pictures for responses. This design helps reduce the cognitive load, making it simpler for participants. In each section, individuals choose images that they feel represent themselves, with options showing different races and genders. These choices are then turned into scores for each section, allowing a better understanding of how aphasia affects their lives.


El AIQ-21 tiene 21 preguntas y generalmente se tarda entre 20 y 30 minutos en completarse. Se divide en tres secciones: actividades, participación y estado emocional/bienestar. Cada sección se centra en diferentes aspectos de la vida con afasia.

Para hacerlo más fácil de entender, las preguntas utilizan un formato repetitivo e incluyen imágenes como opciones de respuesta. Este diseño ayuda a reducir la carga cognitiva, lo que facilita a los participantes. En cada sección, las personas eligen imágenes que sienten que las representan, con opciones que muestran diferentes razas y géneros. Estas elecciones se convierten en puntuaciones para cada sección, lo que permite comprender mejor cómo la afasia afecta sus vidas.
