Braun, Emily J.; Kiran, Swathi – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The impact of stimulus-level psycholinguistic variables and personlevel semantic and phonological processing skills on treatment outcomes in individuals with aphasia requires further examination to inform clinical decision making in treatment prescription and stimuli selection. This study investigated the influence of stimulus-level…

Engelhoven, Amy E. R.; Bislick, Lauren; Gray, Sara; Pompon, Rebecca Hunting – Topics in Language Disorders, 2022
Purpose: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for persons with aphasia (PWA) are commonly used to measure various outcomes. Persons with aphasia commonly present with language deficits that can likely increase respondent burden. Elements that contribute to respondent burden include readability, design, and formatting methods. The aims of this…

Backman, Ylva; Gardelli, Viktor; Parnes, Peter – Designs for Learning, 2022
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…

Jimenez Forero, Sonia J.; Palmer, Rebecca – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: In order to conduct research that is meaningful to speech and language therapy services and their patients, it is often desirable to conduct the research within routine clinical services. This can require considerable time and commitment from speech and language therapists (SLTs). It is therefore important to understand the impact that…

Strong, Katie A.; Douglas, Natalie F.; Johnson, Rebecca; Silverman, Maura; Azios, Jamie H.; Archer, Brent – Topics in Language Disorders, 2023
There is a need for intervention to support friendship for people living with aphasia. The purpose of this article is to describe a stakeholder engagement process that involved researchers, clinicians, people living with aphasia, and care partners to inform such intervention. Through reflection and firsthand accounts of non-university-based…

Hounslow, Rhiannon; Rohde, Alexia; Finch, Emma – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: A number of practice barriers (e.g., time constraints, patient comorbidities and competing demands) exist as regards the evidence-based assessment of adult language within the acute hospital setting. There is need for an evidence-based, diagnostically validated, adaptable, comprehensive and efficient aphasia assessment. The Brisbane…

Carlos Rojas; Bernardo Riffo; Ernesto Guerra – SAGE Open, 2023
Older adults show a progressive cognitive decline, and although language processing appears to resist advancing age, studies in word retrieval report that elders show important difficulties. Previous research reports that such failures increase from age 70 years, which suggests that during the fourth age word retrieval would exhibit even stronger…

Caute, Anna; Dipper, Lucy; Roper, Abi – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: People with aphasia rely on gesture more than healthy controls to get their message across, but use a limited range of gesture types. Gesture therapy is thus a potential avenue of intervention for people with aphasia. However, currently no gesture assessment evaluates how they use gesture. Such a tool could inform therapy targets and…

Chapman, Laura Roche; Hallowell, Brooke – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Pupillary responses captured via pupillometry (measurement of pupillary dilation and constriction during the performance of a cognitive task) are psychophysiological indicators of cognitive effort, attention, arousal, and resource engagement. Pupillometry may be a promising tool for enhancing our understanding of the relationship between…

Barnali Mazumdar; Nora De la Mora; Teresa Roberts; Alexander Swiderski; Maria Kapantzoglou; Gerasimos Fergadiotis – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Anomia, or word-finding difficulty, is a prevalent and persistent feature of aphasia, a neurogenic language disorder affecting millions of people in the United States. Anomia assessments are essential for measuring performance and monitoring outcomes in clinical settings. This study aims to evaluate the reliability of response time (RT)…

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…

Man, Grace; Meehan, Sarah; Martin, Nadine; Branigan, Holly; Lee, Jiyeon – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Although there is increasing interest in using structural priming as a means to ameliorate grammatical encoding deficits in persons with aphasia (PWAs), little is known about the precise mechanisms of structural priming that are associated with robust and enduring effects in PWAs. Two dialogue-like comprehension-to-production priming…

Michèle Masson-Trottier; Karine Marcotte; Elizabeth Rochon; Carol Leonard; Ana Inés Ansaldo – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Over 50% of individuals with aphasia face ongoing word-finding issues. Studies have found phonologically oriented therapy helpful for English speakers, but this has not yet been studied in French. It is essential to assess the effectiveness of such a therapy in French, considering the distinct linguistic typologies between both…

Katharine Davies; Tami Howe; Jeff Small; Ging-Yuek Robin Hsiung – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Communication disabilities, such as primary progressive aphasia (PPA), impact family members as well as the individuals with the condition. To provide adequate communication care to people with PPA (PwPPA) and their family members, it is crucial to understand the communication needs from the family members' perspectives. To date,…
