Robert Benjamin Cavanaugh – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Communication is fundamental to the human condition but is impaired in life-altering ways for more than 2.4 million individuals with aphasia in the United States. Individuals with aphasia identify discourse-level communication (i.e. language in use) as a high priority for treatment. The central premise of most aphasia treatments is that restoring…

Stead, Amanda; Michael, Paul; Ondo, Katie – Teaching and Learning in Communication Sciences & Disorders, 2022
Clinical simulations, in a variety of forms, is a viable educational tool, allowing CSD students to acquire professional competencies and skills. Simucase is a computer-based simulation program designed for this objective. The goal of this study was to determine what elements of simulation engagement predicted success on a student's overall…

Bright, Felicity; Attrill, Stacie; Hersh, Deborah – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: Therapeutic relationships are fundamental in aphasia rehabilitation, influencing patient experience and outcomes. While we have good understandings of the components of therapeutic relationships, there has been little exploration of how and why therapists construct and enact relationships as they do. Sociological theories may help…

Wilson, Stephen M.; Eriksson, Dana K.; Brandt, Temre H.; Schneck, Sarah M.; Lucanie, Jillian M.; Burchfield, Annie S.; Charney, Sara; Quillen, Ian A.; de Riesthal, Michael; Kirshner, Howard S.; Beeson, Pélagie M.; Ritter, Leslie; Kidwell, Chelsea S. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Recovery from aphasia after stroke has a decelerating trajectory, with the greatest gains taking place early and the slope of change decreasing over time. Despite its importance, little is known regarding evolution of language function in the early postonset period. The goal of this study was to characterize the dynamics and nature of…

Background and Objectives: In Italy, approximately 650 individuals receive a diagnosis of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) every year. Unfortunately, the frequency with which patients are referred to speech-language services is suboptimal, likely due to skepticism regarding the value of speech-language therapy in the context of neurodegeneration.…

Cheng, Bonnie B. Y.; Worrall, Linda E.; Copland, David A.; Wallace, Sarah J. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2020
Background: Prognostication is a complex clinical task that involves forming a prediction about recovery and communicating prognostic information to patients and families. In aphasia, recovery is difficult to predict and evidence-based guidance on prognosis delivery is lacking. Questions about aphasia prognosis commonly arise, but it is unknown…

Archer, Brent; Azios, Jamie H.; Moody, Samantha – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2019
Background: During clinical interactions, clinicians and people with aphasia (PWA) use humour and laughter for a range of purposes, most of which contribute to friendly interactions in which the participants appear to develop a positive regard for one another. Moreover, humour is a vital component of facework, or the processes interactants engage…

Choinski, Mateusz; Szelag, Elzbieta; Wolak, Tomasz; Szymaszek, Aneta – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Aphasia is often accompanied by impairment of non-language cognitive functions. Assessment of cognitive capacity in people with aphasia (PWA) with standard neuropsychological methods may be problematic due to their language difficulties. Numerous experimental studies indicate that P300 may be considered as an index of cognitive…

Kiran, Swathi; Meier, Erin L.; Johnson, Jeffrey P. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Despite a tremendous amount of research in this topic, the precise neural mechanisms underlying language recovery remain unclear. Much of the evidence suggests that activation of remaining left-hemisphere tissue, including perilesional areas, is linked to the best treatment outcomes, yet recruitment of the right hemisphere for various…

Quique, Yina M.; Evans, William S.; Ortega-Llebaría, Marta; Zipse, Lauryn; Walsh Dickey, Michael – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Script training is a well-established treatment for aphasia, but its evidence comes almost exclusively from monolingual English speakers with aphasia. Furthermore, its active ingredients and profiles of people with aphasia (PWA) that respond to this treatment remain understudied. This study aimed to adapt a scripted-sentence learning…

Henriksson, Ingrid; Laakso, Katja – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2020
Background: Reading is most often affected in aphasia and this has an impact on most aspects of everyday life. Being able to read makes a significant difference to how well a person can participate in society. In this study, people with aphasia recount their experiences of being in a book club. Aims: This small scale, exploratory study employs a…

Thompson, Cynthia K. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Reorganization of language networks in aphasia takes advantage of the facts that (a) the brain is an organ of plasticity, with neuronal changes occurring throughout the life span, including following brain damage; (b) plasticity is highly experience dependent; and (c) as with any learning system, language reorganization involves a synergistic…

Finch, Emma; Lethlean, Jennifer; Rose, Tanya; Fleming, Jennifer; Theodoros, Deborah; Cameron, Ashley; Coleman, Adele; Copland, David; McPhail, Steven M. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2020
Background: Speech pathology students can experience low confidence when communicating with people with aphasia. Communication partner training (CPT) is one method to increase confidence and skills when communicating with people with aphasia. There is a paucity of research exploring the effects of delivering CPT to students via technology, such as…

Utianski, Rene L.; Martin, Peter R.; Hanley, Holly; Duffy, Joseph R.; Botha, Hugo; Clark, Heather M.; Whitwell, Jennifer L.; Josephs, Keith A. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Individuals with primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS) have apraxia of speech (AOS) in which disruptions in articulation or prosody predominate the speech pattern, referred to, respectively, as phonetic or prosodic subtypes. Many develop aphasia and/or dysarthria. Past research has demonstrated that simple temporal acoustic…

Vuksanovic, Jasmina; Milovanovic, Tanja; Konstantinovic, Ljubica; Filipovic, Saša R. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2018
Background: Constraint-induced (language) aphasia therapy (CIAT), based on constraint usage of the language channel only, massed practice and shaping through therapeutic language games, has been suggested as a more efficient therapy approach than traditional aphasia therapies. Aims: To examine the comparative efficacy of CIAT and a traditional…
