Abstract

This article presents a dataset consisting of eye-tracking recordings obtained from fifteen patients with Broca’s Aphasia and six healthy individuals. The aphasic volunteers had good hearing and eye function, which allowed them to use a computer for communication. Data from aphasic and healthy participants was recorded once in two Speech-Language Pathology Clinics partners. The experimental design involved thirty-two recording sessions per participant, each one corresponding to the execution of the second version of the clinically validated Test for Reception of Grammar (TROG-2). This dataset can serve as a valuable benchmark for several applications, as it provides complementary information of individual insights, improving linguistic systems, exploring gaze functions, and monitoring cognitive processes in patients undergoing rehabilitation.
