Abstract

Ovaj pregledni diplomski rad bavi se temom zrcalnih neurona i njihove povezanosti s govorom. U prvom poglavlju, analiziramo što su zrcalni neuroni, kako funkcioniraju i kako su otkriveni. U drugom poglavlju, fokusiramo se na govor i istražujemo kako se zrcalni neuroni povezuju s različitim aspektima govora. U trećem poglavlju, razmatramo kliničku povezanost između zrcalnih neurona i govornih poremećaja, kao što su afazija, disleksija i autizam. U četvrtom poglavlju, analiziramo metodičku komponentu, odnosno kako se zrcalni neuroni mogu koristiti u terapiji i rehabilitaciji govornih poremećaja. U zaključku, naglašavamo važnost istraživanja zrcalnih neurona i njihove povezanosti s govorom, te potencijal za primjenu u dijagnostici i terapiji govornih poremećaja, kao i potrebu za daljnjim istraživanjima u ovom području.

Abstract (english)

This thesis deals with the topic of mirror neurons and their connection to speech. The first chapter discusses what mirror neurons are, how they function and how they were discovered. Second chapter is focused on speech and exploring how mirror neurons are linked to different aspects of speech. Third chapter analyses the clinical connection between mirror neurons and speech disorders, such as aphasia, dyslexia, and autism. The fourth chapter focuses on the methodology, i.e. how mirror neurons can be used in therapy and rehabilitation of speech disorders. At the end of the thesis the importance of researching mirror neurons and their connection to speech, the potential for application in diagnosis and therapy of speech disorders is emphasized, as well as the need for further research in this field.
