Abstract
Based on authentic data from an ethnographic study of compensatory strategies in adults with aphasia, an operational definition of compensatory strategies has been formulated. By employing seven characteristics derived from the data, this definition provides a perspective on compensation that is different from previous definitions and examples. Several assessment and treatment implications are discussed.Keywords
