Brief summary: The goal of this observational study is to investigate cognitive functioning profiles in adults with neurologically recognized aphasic syndromes and general population.

The study group consist of minimal 600 adults (over 18 y.o.) who will be examined by qualified diagnosticians. Participants will be evaluated with tasks related to the studied variables: memory, learning and language. Furthermore informations regarding past and present health condition will be collected from participants.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. What is the profile of memory and learning among polish adults?
2. Do gender and age moderates patterns of memory and learning functioning among polish adults?
3. What is a specific pattern of language functioning in adults with neurologically recognized aphasic syndromes?
4. Do gender moderates specific patterns of language functioning in adults with neurologically recognized aphasic syndromes?

Researchers will compare the following groups of adults:

1. general population/control group
2. with neurologically recognized aphasic syndromes
3. seniors (over 60 y.o.)
