Background: People with aphasia (PWA) frequently experience difficulties in understanding longer written content such as paragraphs or books. Reading strategies are a promising approach to treat text-level reading comprehension deficits in PWA. Nevertheless, empirical evidence for their efficacy remains rare. Aims: The primary objective of this…

Mirjam van Tellingen; Joost Hurkmans; Hayo Terband; Anne Marie van de Zande; Ben Maassen; Roel Jonkers – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Speech--Music Therapy for Aphasia (SMTA), a method that combines speech therapy and music therapy, is introduced as a treatment method for childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). SMTA will be evaluated in a proof-ofprinciple study. The first case study is presented herein. Method: SMTA was evaluated in a study with a single-subject…

Schwen Blackett, Deena; Harnish, Stacy M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Emotional stimuli have been shown to influence language processing (both language comprehension and production) in people with aphasia (PWA); however, this finding is not universally reported. Effects of emotional stimuli on language performance in PWA could have clinical and theoretical implications, yet the sparsity of studies and…

Lo, Suzanne Hoi Shan; Chau, Janita Pak Chun – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: People with post-stroke aphasia tend to have smaller social networks, a higher risk of depression and poorer health-related quality of life than those who do not have aphasia after stroke. Stroke-specific or general rehabilitation programmes offered by community-based organizations are commonly group-based and involve discussions among…

Gary Robinaugh; Maya L. Henry; Robert Cavanaugh; Stephanie M. Grasso – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a self-administered naming treatment for one individual, B.N., presenting with semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) and a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Method: Naming treatment included components of Lexical Retrieval Cascade Treatment and was…

Brock, Kris L.; Koul, Rajinder; Corwin, Melinda; Schlosser, Ralf W. – Augmentative and Alternative Communication, 2022
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of interface display and respondent group on listener attitudes toward and perceived communicative competence of persons with aphasia. The Attitudes Toward Nonspeaking Persons scale and the Communicative Competence Scale was used to measure listener attitudes and communicative competence,…

In this paper, we describe technological advances for supporting persons with aphasia in philosophical dialogues about personally relevant and contestable questions. A computer game-based application for iPads is developed and researched through Living Lab inspired workshops in order to promote the target group's communicative participation during…

Background: Evidence-based recommendations for a core outcome set (COS; minimum set of outcomes) for aphasia treatment research have been developed (the Research Outcome Measurement in Aphasia--ROMA, COS). Five recommended core outcome constructs: communication, language, quality of life, emotional well-being and patient-reported…

Johansson-Malmeling, Charlotte; Antonsson, Malin; Wengelin, Åsa; Henriksson, Ingrid – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Intervention studies aimed to improve the written production of single words by persons with aphasia have yielded promising results and there is growing interest in interventions targeting text writing. The development of technical writing aids offers opportunities for persons with aphasia, and studies have shown that using them can…

Wallace, Sarah J.; Sullivan, Bridget; Rose, Tanya A.; Worrall, Linda; Le Dorze, Guylaine; Shrubsole, Kirstine – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: A core outcome set (COS; an agreed minimum set of outcomes) was developed to address the heterogeneous measurement of outcomes in poststroke aphasia treatment research. Successful implementation of a COS requires change in individual and collective research behavior. We used the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) to understand the…

Swann, Zoe; Daliri, Ayoub; Honeycutt, Claire F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The StartReact effect, whereby movements are elicited by loud, startling acoustic stimuli (SAS), allows the evaluation of movements when initiated through involuntary circuitry, before auditory feedback. When StartReact is applied during poststroke upper extremity movements, individuals exhibit increased muscle recruitment, reaction…

Henry, Maya L.; Hubbard, H. Isabel; Grasso, Stephanie M.; Dial, Heather R.; Beeson, Pélagie M.; Miller, Bruce L.; Gorno-Tempini, Maria Luisa – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Recent studies confirm the utility of speech-language intervention in primary progressive aphasia (PPA); however, long-term outcomes, ideal dosage parameters, and relative benefits of intervention across clinical variants warrant additional investigation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether naming treatment affords…

Law, Thomas; Wei, Yifeng; Wong, Kay H. Y.; Hu, Yunyi; Tong, Michael C. F.; Lee, Kathy Y. S. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: With a rapidly aging population in mainland China, dysphagia has become one of the common geriatric disorders which creates a huge demand on speech and language therapists (SLTs). The major challenge is the shortage of SLTs in China. In addition, frontline practitioners in mainland China may not be well equipped with the knowledge and…

Flurie, Maurice; Ungrady, Molly; Reilly, Jamie – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and the amnestic variant of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are neurodegenerative conditions characterized by a profound loss of functional communication abilities. Communicative impairment in AD and PPA is especially apparent in the domain of naming common objects and familiar faces. We evaluated the…

Bacon, Katharine; Marshall, Jane; Caute, Anna; Monnelly, Katie; Cruice, Madeline; Moutou, Corinne; Woolf, Celia – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: Treatment fidelity (TF), that is, the degree to which the treatment delivery has adhered to protocol, is an important aspect of establishing treatment validity and reliability. Research has shown that establishing TF is only done in a small percentage of aphasia treatment studies. Aims: This project supports the work of the CommuniCATE…
