Direct linkSwiderski, Alexander M.; Quique, Yina M.; Dickey, Michael Walsh; Hula, William D. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This meta-analysis synthesizes published studies using "treatment of underlying forms" (TUF) for sentence-level deficits in people with aphasia (PWA). The study aims were to examine group-level evidence for TUF efficacy, to characterize the effects of treatment-related variables (sentence structural family and complexity;…

Fergadiotis, Gerasimos; Casilio, Marianne; Dickey, Michael Walsh; Steel, Stacey; Nicholson, Hannele; Fleegle, Mikala; Swiderski, Alexander; Hula, William D. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: Item response theory (IRT) is a modern psychometric framework with several advantageous properties as compared with classical test theory. IRT has been successfully used to model performance on anomia tests in individuals with aphasia; however, all efforts to date have focused on noun production accuracy. The purpose of this study is to…

Gravier, Michelle L.; Hula, William D.; Johnson, Jeffrey P.; Autenreith, Alyssa; Dickey, Michael Walsh – Topics in Language Disorders, 2022
Purpose: To evaluate whether levels of cortisol, a stress-related hormone, predicted response to intensive speech-language intervention for individuals with chronic aphasia (IWA). Secondary analyses explored baseline cortisol levels, change following intervention, association between cortisol levels and aphasia severity, self-reported…

Faroqi-Shah, Yasmeen; Dickey, Michael Walsh – Brain and Language, 2009
Agrammatic aphasic individuals exhibit marked production deficits for tense morphology. This paper presents three experiments examining whether a group of English-speaking agrammatic individuals (n = 10) exhibit parallel deficits in their comprehension of tense. Results from two comprehension experiments (on-line grammaticality judgment studies)…

Milman, Lisa H.; Dickey, Michael Walsh; Thompson, Cynthia K. – Brain and Language, 2008
Hierarchical models of agrammatism propose that sentence production deficits can be accounted for in terms of clausal syntactic structure [Friedmann, N., & Grodzinsky, Y. (1997). "Tense and agreement in agrammatic production: Pruning the syntactic tree." "Brain and Language, 56", 397-425; Hagiwara, H. (1995). "The breakdown of functional…

Dickey, Michael Walsh; Choy, JungWon Janet; Thompson, Cynthia, K. – Brain and Language, 2007
Sentences with non-canonical wh- movement are often difficult for individuals with agrammatic Broca's aphasia to understand (Carramazza & Zurif, 1976, inter alia). However, the explanation of this difficulty remains controversial, and little is known about how individuals with aphasia try to understand such sentences in real time. This study uses…
