Barbara A. Lewis; Gabrielle J. Miller; Sudha K. Iyengar; Catherine Stein; Penelope Benchek – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: The study's primary aims were to describe the long-term speech outcomes for adolescents and young adults with a history of childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) and to examine the association of persistent speech sound errors with measures of literacy skills, phonological processing, motor speech production, and parent report of early motor…

Hillary Schiltz; Dena Gohari; Jamie Park; Catherine Lord – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Many autistic people and people with non-spectrum neurodevelopmental disabilities (e.g. intellectual disability) report feeling lonely, which can negatively impact their well-being. There is little longitudinal research, however, tracking changes in how autistic people experience, conceptualize, and cope with loneliness throughout their lives. A…

Marcela Dos Santos Delabary; Isadora Loch Sbeghen; Mariana Wolffenbuttel; Djefri Ramon Pereira; Aline Nogueira Haas – Research in Dance Education, 2024
The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the consequent social isolation can intensify some Parkinson's disease (PD) motor and non-motor symptoms. To minimize the damage to the physical and mental health of people with PD, strategies to promote health in this population must be adapted to the new reality. Considering the negative impact of social…

Miller, Gabrielle F.; Sarmiento, Kelly; Haarbauer-Krupa, Juliet; Everett Jones, Sherry – Journal of School Health, 2022
Background: Little is known about the effectiveness of school district concussion policies on reducing the concussion prevalence among students. Methods: Data from the 2016 School Health Policies and Practices Study and 2017 Youth Risk Behavior Survey for 10 school districts were linked. The outcome variable was having a sports- or physical…

Teplansky, Kristin J.; Jones, Corinne A. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Within-individual pharyngeal swallowing pressure variability differs among pharyngeal regions in healthy individuals and increases with age. It remains unknown if pharyngeal pressure variability is impacted by volitional swallowing tasks. We hypothesized that pressure variability would increase during volitional swallowing maneuvers and…

Li, Jinglun; Chen, Xiu; Zheng, Ruwen; Chen, Ai; Zhou, Yan; Ruan, Jianghai – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder. The associations between the cerebellum and clinical traits remain unclear. We performed amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) analysis to explore the associations between spontaneous brain activity and clinical traits. 361 juvenile ASD patients were included from the ABIDEII…

Berry-Kravis, Elizabeth – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2022
Fragile X syndrome (FXS), as a monogenic cause of intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder, has been one of the first neurodevelopmental disorders in which molecular and neuronal mechanisms of disease have been identified, leading to the concept of targeting the underlying disease to reverse symptoms. Translating findings in basic…

Edmunds, Sarah R.; Colman, Carly; Vidal, Paige; Faja, Susan – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Deficits in working memory have not been fully explored in toddlers and preschoolers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We investigated the relationship between language (verbal ability, verbal self-talk) and visuospatial working memory in 2- and 4-year-olds with ASD (n = 65) and typical development (TD) (n = 54). Children with ASD displayed…

Moya-Galé, Gemma; Galgano, Jessica; Ferrone, Carol; Chang, Younghwa M.; Ramig, Lorraine A. – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2022
A 36-year-old female with severe spastic dysarthria participated in this study. She received 4 weeks of individual, intensive voice-focused treatment. Voice recordings were conducted at three baseline points, immediately posttreatment, and at a 4-month follow-up. The primary outcome variables were selected acoustic measures of vocal function:…

Collins, Josephine; Barnoux, Magali; Langdon, Peter E. – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2022
Background: Treatment for adults who set fires relies upon valid and reliable assessment. Research is needed to ensure self-report measures are available for adults with neurodevelopmental disabilities and that they are robust. Method: Qualitative and quantitative data from three rounds of a Delphi exercise with practitioners and a focus group…

Thomas, Anusha; Teplansky, Kristin J.; Wisler, Alan; Heitzman, Daragh; Austin, Sara; Wang, Jun – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects bulbar functions including speech and voice. Voice onset time (VOT) was examined in speakers with ALS in early and late stages to explore the coordination of the articulatory and phonatory systems during speech production. Method: VOT was measured in nonword…

Donohue, Cara; Robison, Raele; DiBiase, Lauren; Anderson, Amber; Vasilopoulos, Terrie; Plowman, Emily K. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This study compared the concordance between two validated videofluoroscopic pharyngeal residue outcome scales used in clinical and research settings: the Dynamic Imaging Grade of Swallowing Toxicity (DIGEST) and the Analysis of Swallowing Physiology: Events, Kinematics and Timing (ASPEKT) percent residue metric. Method: Two trained raters…

Kathryn J. Greenslade; Julia K. Bushell; Emily F. Dillon; Amy E. Ramage – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Pragmatic communication difficulties encompass many distinct behaviours, including the use of vague and/or insufficient language, a common characteristic following traumatic brain injury (TBI) that negatively impacts psychosocial outcomes. Existing assessments evaluate pragmatic communication broadly, often with only one or two items…

Background: Concussion education is recommended to increase concussion knowledge, beliefs, and reporting intentions. The Concussion Awareness Training Tool for Youth (CATT-Youth) is a 40-minute e-Learning module developed for high school-aged youth. Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate changes in concussion knowledge, beliefs, and reporting…
