Direct linkBaker, Clarisse; Bryant, Lucy; Power, Emma – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Narrative discourse is central to effective participation in conversations. When discourse is assessed in people with communication disability, structured tasks (e.g., picture descriptions) provide experimental control, while unstructured tasks (e.g., personal narratives) represent more natural communication. Immersive virtual reality…

Monnelly, Katie; Marshall, Jane; Dipper, Lucy; Cruice, Madeline – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Research evidence suggests aphasia therapy must be delivered at high intensity to effect change. Comprehensive therapy, addressing all domains of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, is also called for by people with aphasia and their families. However, aphasia therapy is rarely intense or…

Salis, Christos; Jarrar, Rawand; Murray, Laura L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: The dual-task paradigm has been frequently used to examine stroke-related deficits because it samples behavioral performance under conditions of distraction similar to functioning in real-life environments. This original systematic review synthesizes studies that examined dual-task effects involving spoken language production in adults…

Introduction: Dysphagia affects up to 70% of care home residents, increasing morbidity and hospital admissions. Speech and language therapists make recommendations to support safe nutrition but have limited capacity to offer ongoing guidance. This study aimed to understand if recommendations made to support safe and effective care are implemented…

Campbell; Peter Worthy – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Speech and language therapy for post-stroke aphasia (language/communication impairment) improves language and communication in the short-term; however, access to therapy is limited, and effects are not always maintained. Mobile Health (mHealth) applications may support long-term therapy access and maintenance of gains. We present a…

Swiderski, Alexander M.; Quique, Yina M.; Dickey, Michael Walsh; Hula, William D. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This meta-analysis synthesizes published studies using "treatment of underlying forms" (TUF) for sentence-level deficits in people with aphasia (PWA). The study aims were to examine group-level evidence for TUF efficacy, to characterize the effects of treatment-related variables (sentence structural family and complexity;…

Clapham, Renee P.; McKinley, Kathryn; Stone, Marissa; Candy, Mary-Anne; Candy, Phil; Carragher, Marcella; O'Halloran, Robyn – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Evidence should guide decisions in aphasia practice across the continuum of stroke care; however, evidence-practice gaps persist. This is particularly pertinent in the acute setting where 30% of people with stroke will have aphasia, and speech pathologists experience many challenges implementing evidence-based practice. This has…

Eleanor Gulick; Brent Archer; Marion C. Leaman – Topics in Language Disorders, 2024
To support improved understanding of interaction among the heterogeneous people with aphasia who attend facilitated conversation groups we applied discourse structure analysis (DSA). We focused on group members with mild and severe aphasia. We identified the function of each communicative move, an utterance unit core to DSA, individuals made in…

Jacinda Choy; Fereshteh Pourkazemi; Hans Bogaardt; Caitlin Anderson; Shing Yee Chai; Roxanna N. Pebdani – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Dysphagia affects over half of adults after stroke. Dysphagia rehabilitation aims to improve swallowing and reduce negative outcomes for these adults. However, significant variability exists in dysphagia rehabilitation. Research is needed to explore the underlying clinician-specific and workplace factors that contribute to variability…

Bose, Arpita; Patra, Abhijeet; Antoniou, Georgia Eleftheria; Stickland, Rachael C.; Belke, Eva – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Verbal fluency tasks are routinely used in clinical assessment and research studies of aphasia. People with aphasia produce fewer items in verbal fluency tasks. It remains unclear if their output is limited solely by their lexical difficulties and/or has a basis in their executive control abilities. Recent research has illustrated that…

Manning, Molly; MacFarlane, Anne; Hickey, Anne; Galvin, Rose; Franklin, Sue – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: People with post-stroke aphasia (PWA) are more likely to experience serious mood disorders compared with those without. Emotional regulation may be important for influencing life participation after stroke. Understanding emotional regulation in the context of aphasia is important for promoting personally defined recovery, psychological…

Kim, Hana; Schoemann, Alexander M.; Wright, Heather Harris – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Core lexicon measures have received growing attention in research. They are intended to provide clinicians with a clinician-friendly means to quantify word retrieval ability in discourse based on normal expectations of discourse production for specific discourse elicitation tasks. To date, different criteria have been used to develop core…

Warner, Heather; Cometz, Alexa – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Patients with schizophrenia present with both cognitive impairment as well as language difficulties. There are similarities in the language output of patients with schizophrenia and patients with aphasia, thus a differential diagnosis of patients who present with a question of dual diagnoses can be a clinical challenge. This case…

Söderhielm, Kajsa; Eriksson, Karin; Möller, Marika – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Purpose: Communicative participation poses a challenge in meetings between healthcare professionals (HCPs) and people with aphasia (PwA). How communication is affected by aphasia in group meetings, where several healthcare professionals participate together with the patient, is largely unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate…

Knollman-Porter, Kelly; Bevelhimer, Andrew; Hux, Karen; Wallace, Sarah E.; Hughes, Michael R.; Brown, Jessica A. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Background: Researchers have used eye-tracking technology to investigate eye movements in neurotypical adults (NAs) when reading. The technology can provide comparable information about people with aphasia (PWA). Eye fixations occurring when PWA do and do not have access to text-to-speech (TTS) technology are of interest because the support…
