Roberts, Angela; Aveni, Katharine; Basque, Shalane; Orange, Joseph B.; McLaughlin, Paula; Ramirez, Joel; Troyer, Angela K.; Gutierrez, Stephanie; Chen, Angie; Bartha, Robert; Binns, Malcolm A.; Black, Sandra E.; Casaubon, Leanne K.; Dowlatshahi, Dar; Hassan, Ayman; Kwan, Donna; Levine, Brian; Mandzia, Jennifer; Sahlas, Demetrios J.; Scott, Christopher J. M.; Strother, Stephen; Sunderland, Kelly M.; Symons, Sean; Swartz, Richard – Topics in Language Disorders, 2021
Purpose: Dementia due to cerebrovascular disease (CVD) is common. Detecting early cognitive decline in CVD is critical because addressing risk factors may slow or prevent dementia. This study used a multidomain discourse analysis approach to determine the spoken language signature of CVD-related cognitive impairment. Method: Spoken language and…

N.; Varma, Ravi Prasad; Verma, Mansi; Vishwanath, Yeshaswini – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Picture-naming tests (PNTs) evaluate linguistic impairment in dementia due to semantic memory impairment, impaired lexical retrieval or perceptual deficits. They also assess the decline in naming impairment at various stages of dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) that occurs due to progressive cognitive impairment. With the…

Phillips, Ashley N.; Maricle, Denise E. – Journal of the American Academy of Special Education Professionals, 2021
Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system through the destruction of myelin. Frequently cited symptoms include cognitive impairment as a hallmark repercussion, neuropsychological executive dysfunction, and psychosocial disturbances, such as affective disorders and fatigue. Other symptomatology…

Sherman, Janet Cohen; Henderson, Charles R.; Flynn, Suzanne; Gair, James W.; Lust, Barbara – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This research investigated the nature of cognitive decline in prodromal Alzheimer's disease (AD), particularly in mild cognitive impairment, amnestic type (aMCI). We assessed language in aMCI as compared with healthy aging (HA) and healthy young (HY) with new psycholinguistic assessment of complex sentences, and we tested the degree to…

Rebstock, Alicia M.; Wallace, Sarah E. – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2020
Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by language and cognitive decline. Word-retrieval deficits are the most common PPA symptom and contribute to impaired spoken expression. Intense semantic interventions show promise for improving word retrieval in people with PPA. In addition, people with PPA may learn…

McCullough, Kim C.; Bayles, Kathryn A.; Bouldin, Erin D. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Evidence exists that changes in language performance may be an early indicator of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), often a harbinger of dementing disease. The purpose of this study was the evaluation of language performance in individuals at risk for MCI by virtue of age and self-concern and its relation to performance on tests of memory,…

Justice, Laura M.; Ahn, Woo-Young; Logan, Jessica A. R. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2019
In this study, we identified child- and family-level characteristics most strongly associated with clinical identification of language disorder for preschool-aged children. We used machine learning to identify variables that best classified children receiving therapy for language disorder among a sample of 483 3- to 5-year-old children (54%…

Feldman, Jacob I.; Dunham, Kacie; DiCarlo, Gabriella E.; Cassidy, Margaret; Liu, Yupeng; Suzman, Evan; Williams, Zachary J.; Pulliam, Grace; Kaiser, Sophia; Wallace, Mark T.; Woynaroski, Tiffany G. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Differences in audiovisual integration are commonly observed in autism. Temporal binding windows (TBWs) of audiovisual speech can be trained (i.e., narrowed) in non-autistic adults; this study evaluated a computer-based perceptual training in autistic youth and assessed whether treatment outcomes varied according to individual characteristics.…

Obafemi-Ajayi, Tayo; Miles, Judith H.; Takahashi, T. Nicole; Qi, Wenchuan; Aldridge, Kristina; Zhang, Minqi; Xin, Shi-Qing; He, Ying; Duan, Ye – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2015
Varied cluster analysis were applied to facial surface measurements from 62 prepubertal boys with essential autism to determine whether facial morphology constitutes viable biomarker for delineation of discrete Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) subgroups. Earlier study indicated utility of facial morphology for autism subgrouping (Aldridge et al. in…

Yoder, Paul; Watson, Linda R.; Lambert, Warren – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2015
Eighty-seven preschoolers with autism spectrum disorders who were initially nonverbal (under 6 words in language sample and under 21 parent-reported words said) were assessed at five time points over 16 months. Statistical models that accounted for the intercorrelation among nine theoretically- and empirically-motivated predictors, as well as two…

Smith, Kara M.; Ash, Sharon; Xie, Sharon X.; Grossman, Murray – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: Early cognitive symptoms such as word-finding difficulty (WFD) in daily conversation are common in Parkinson's disease (PD), but studies have been limited by a lack of feasible, quantitative measures. Linguistic analysis, focused on pauses in speech, may yield markers of impairment of cognition and communication in PD. The objective of…

Cohen, Matthew L.; Harnish, Stacy M.; Lanzi, Alyssa M.; Brello, Jennifer; Victorson, David; Kisala, Pamela A.; Nandakumar, Ratna; Tulsky, David S. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Background: Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures produce scores that do not always have obvious clinical meaning. The PRO-bookmarking procedure is a new and promising way to make PRO measures more meaningful and interpretable. However, the materials and procedures of the task may benefit from adaptations to be more accessible to individuals…

Davis, Emily; Wolff, Jennifer; Murdock, Rebecca; Lopez, Myrelsa J.; Murphy, Kimberly A. – EBP Briefs (Evidence-based Practice Briefs), 2019
Clinical Question: For adult patients with cognitive linguistic impairment because of traumatic brain injury (TBI), is the use of internal and/or external memory strategies beneficial to memory outcomes compared to alternative or no treatment? Method: Systematic Review. Study Sources: Comprehensive EBSCOhost database search (i.e., ERIC, Academic…
