Nicole Cruse; Victor Piotto; Carl Coelho; Nicholas Behn – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Impaired discourse production is commonly reported for individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Discourse deficits can negatively impact community integration, return to employment and quality of life. COVID-19 restrictions have reduced in-person assessment services for people with communication impairments. Advances in…

Co-Constructed Communication Therapy for Individuals with Acquired Brain Injury: A Systematic Review
Zali Hall; Elise Elbourn; Leanne Togher; Marcella Carragher – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Meaningful, varied, joyful conversation is an important therapy target for adults with language or cognitive-communication disorders following acquired brain injury (ABI). However, the complexity of daily communication is often reduced to component parts within intervention programmes, with mixed evidence of generalization to everyday…

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…

Choinski, Mateusz; Szelag, Elzbieta; Wolak, Tomasz; Szymaszek, Aneta – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Aphasia is often accompanied by impairment of non-language cognitive functions. Assessment of cognitive capacity in people with aphasia (PWA) with standard neuropsychological methods may be problematic due to their language difficulties. Numerous experimental studies indicate that P300 may be considered as an index of cognitive…

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…

Douglas, Joanne T. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is a rare neurodegenerative brain disorder characterized by declining language ability. There is currently no way to reverse or slow the course of the progressive brain degeneration, nor is there a cure for PPA. Throughout the course of the disease, any treatment must therefore be palliative in nature…

Brisebois, Amélie; Brambati, Simona Maria; Rochon, Elizabeth; Leonard, Carol; Marcotte, Karine – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Discourse analysis has recently received much attention in the aphasia literature. Even if post-stroke language recovery occurs throughout the longitudinal continuum of recovery, very few studies have documented discourse changes from the hyperacute to the chronic phases of recovery. Aims: To document a multilevel analysis of discourse…

Lindsey, André; Guernon, Ann; Stika, Monica; Bender Pape, Theresa – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background & Aims: The present retrospective study examines veterans and military personnel who have sustained a cognitive-communication deficit/disorder (CCD) and/or aphasia secondary to traumatic brain injury (TBI). The prevalence of each disorder secondary to TBI is identified and demographic factors are analysed to determine whether…

Lo, Suzanne Hoi Shan; Chau, Janita Pak Chun – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: People with post-stroke aphasia tend to have smaller social networks, a higher risk of depression and poorer health-related quality of life than those who do not have aphasia after stroke. Stroke-specific or general rehabilitation programmes offered by community-based organizations are commonly group-based and involve discussions among…

Stipinovich, Alexandra M.; Tönsing, Kerstin; Dada, Shakila – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: An individual's ability to make autonomous decisions is fundamental to self-determination. The presence of neurological pathology, for example, aphasia, and its associated difficulties with language and/or cognition, may affect an individual's capacity to make decisions, or their ability to reveal their capacity to make decisions.…

Johansson-Malmeling, Charlotte; Antonsson, Malin; Wengelin, Åsa; Henriksson, Ingrid – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Intervention studies aimed to improve the written production of single words by persons with aphasia have yielded promising results and there is growing interest in interventions targeting text writing. The development of technical writing aids offers opportunities for persons with aphasia, and studies have shown that using them can…

Stalpaert, Jara; Cocquyt, Elissa-Marie; Miatton, Marijke; Sieben, Anne; Van Langenhove, Tim; van Mierlo, Pieter; De Letter, Miet – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: The semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) is typically associated with a loss of semantic knowledge. Research on the semantic processing in the other clinical variants of PPA is, however, rather sparse and limited to off-line behavioural studies. Aims: This study aimed to investigate verbal semantic processing in…

Bright, Felicity; Attrill, Stacie; Hersh, Deborah – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: Therapeutic relationships are fundamental in aphasia rehabilitation, influencing patient experience and outcomes. While we have good understandings of the components of therapeutic relationships, there has been little exploration of how and why therapists construct and enact relationships as they do. Sociological theories may help…

Scholl, Dominique I.; McCabe, Patricia; Nickels, Lyndsey; Ballard, Kirrie J. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: To date, studies have not explored whether a dual diagnosis of aphasia plus apraxia of speech (AOS) versus aphasia alone (APH) affects the response to language-based naming treatments. Aims: To compare the effects of semantic feature analysis (SFA) treatment for individuals with APH versus aphasia plus AOS, and to test if the presence…

Bouvier, Liziane; Monetta, Laura; Laforce, Robert, Jr.; Vitali, Paolo; Bocti, Christian; Martel-Sauvageau, Vincent – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2021
Background: The term progressive apraxia of speech (PAOS) is used to describe speakers presenting with isolated or dominant apraxia of speech in the context of a neurodegenerative syndrome, including primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS) and dominant progressive apraxia of speech (DAOS), respectively. Its motor speech profile has been…
