Background: Speech and language impairments are well-established in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, knowledge about particular aspects of social communication and everyday conversational abilities is limited. Aims: To investigate self- and informant-report ratings of social communicative abilities in ALS participants…

Tambyraja, Sherine R.; Farquharson, Kelly; Justice, Laura – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which school-age children with speech sound disorder (SSD) exhibit concomitant reading difficulties and examine the extent to which phonological processing and speech production abilities are associated with increased likelihood of reading risks. Method: Data were obtained from 120…

Wood, Rebecca – Educational Review, 2020
As a result of the association of autism with speech and language difficulties, autistic school children can be subject to interventions ostensibly intended to remedy these problems. However, my study, based in five mainstream primary schools in England, which incorporated the views and experiences of school staff (n = 36), autistic children…

Wren, Yvonne; Harding, Sam; Goldbart, Juliet; Roulstone, Sue – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2018
Background: Multiple interventions have been developed to address speech sound disorder (SSD) in children. Many of these have been evaluated but the evidence for these has not been considered within a model which categorizes types of intervention. The opportunity to carry out a systematic review of interventions for SSD arose as part of a larger…

Emelyanova, Irina A.; Borisova, Elena A.; Shapovalova, Olga E.; Karynbaeva, Olga V.; Vorotilkina, Irina M. – Journal of Social Studies Education Research, 2018
The relevance of the research is due to the necessity of creating the pedagogical conditions for correction and development of speech in children having the general speech underdevelopment. For them, difficulties generating a coherent utterance are characteristic, which prevents a sufficient speech readiness for schooling forming in them as well…

Penttilä, Nelly; Korpijaakko-Huuhka, Anna-Maija; Kent, Ray D. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate how speech fluency in typical and atypical speech is perceptually assessed by speech-language pathologists (SLPs). Our research questions were as follows: (a) How do SLPs rate fluency in speakers with and without neurological communication disorders? (b) Do they differentiate the speaker groups? and…

Farquharson, Kelly; Boldini, Lisa – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2018
Purpose: Speech sound disorders (SSDs) can have a negative impact on literacy development, social-emotional well-being, and participation across the life span. Despite this, many public schools do not provide appropriate or timely services to this population of children. In large part, this is a result of variation in how state and local agencies…

Uzhansky, Jane – ProQuest LLC, 2018
The co-occurrence of learning disabilities (LD), such as speech and language impairment (SLI) and attention deficit disorder/attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADD/ADHD), also classified as other health impairment (OHI), is significant. Many of these students are being placed in the general education setting and need to obtain the learning…

Spencer, Kristie A.; France, Ashley A. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2016
Background: The speech characteristics of ataxic dysarthria are known to be quite diverse. The varied presentation of this dysarthria challenges researchers and clinicians alike, and brings into question whether it is a single entity. While the possibility of subtypes of ataxic dysarthria has been suggested, the nature of these putative groups…

Calcus, Axelle; Lorenzi, Christian; Collet, Gregory; Colin, Cécile; Kolinsky, Régine – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2016
Purpose: Children with dyslexia have been suggested to experience deficits in both categorical perception (CP) and speech identification in noise (SIN) perception. However, results regarding both abilities are inconsistent, and the relationship between them is still unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between CP…

Van Sickle, Angela – EBP Briefs (Evidence-based Practice Briefs), 2016
Clinical Question: Would individuals with acquired apraxia of speech (AOS) demonstrate greater improvements for speech production with an articulatory kinematic approach or a rate/rhythm approach? Method: EBP Intervention Comparison Review. Study Sources: ASHA journal, Google Scholar, PubMed, CINAHL Plus with Full Text, Web of Science, Ovid, and…

Hinckley, Jacqueline J. – Topics in Language Disorders, 2015
Illness narratives may be told in various contexts and are reported to be associated with a variety of positive health outcomes, such as fewer doctors' office visits. The story of stroke onset can be highly varied among people without language impairments, seeming to reflect the way the individual is understanding and adapting to living with the…

Gormley, Andrea – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2015
Speech errors are generally said to accommodate to their new phonological context. This accommodation has been validated by several transcription studies. The transcription methodology is not the best choice for detecting errors at this level, however, as this type of error can be difficult to perceive. This paper presents an acoustic analysis of…

Ireland, Marie; McLeod, Sharynne; Farquharson, Kelly; Crowe, Kathryn – Topics in Language Disorders, 2020
More than half of U.S. speech-language pathologists (SLPs) currently practice in the school setting and 92.6% of SLPs who work in schools provide services focused on children's speech sound production (articulation and/or phonology). This article describes evaluation and eligibility requirements for children with speech sound disorders in the…
