This literature review synthesizes three seminal studies on cross-linguistic treatment effects in bilingual aphasia. The first study delves into the interplay between language proficiency and linguistic distance in treatment outcomes, revealing nuanced findings. The second study provides new insights into the role of language characteristics and typology in bilingual aphasia, shedding light on language processing and recovery patterns. The third study offers a meta-analytic perspective, emphasizing the impact of language similarity on linguistic competence in aphasic individuals. By integrating these studies, this review aims to present a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationship between linguistic factors and treatment efficacy in bilingual aphasia.
