The Influence of Anticipation, Anxiety, and Avoidance on the Stuttering ExperienceJumper, Andrea 14 June 2018 (has links)
<p> Stuttering is a speech disorder recognized in both speech pathology and psychology diagnostic manuals. Overt characteristics of the disorder include prolonged and disrupted speech while covert behaviors include anxiety and avoidance (American Speech-Language Hearing Association, n.d; American Psychiatric Association, 2013). The purpose of this study was to highlight the significant role covert characteristics play in the stuttering experience. Specifically, this study investigated anticipation, avoidance, anxiety, life interference, and self-reported stuttering severity. The data used for this study was archival data collected from 2012–2013 to investigate psychological traits within the stuttering population. The participants were adults who stuttered recruited from online and in-vivo stuttering support groups. Analysis of the data found 1) no significant difference in avoidant behavior between those who do and do not anticipate stuttering events 2) that anxiety and avoidance are positively correlated regardless of ability to anticipate, and 3) that anxiety and avoidance are greater predictors of life interference than self-reported stuttering severity. These finding provide further evidence of the impact of psychosocial traits on the stuttering experience and support the need for comprehensive stuttering interventions.</p><p>

Speech-language Pathologists and Behavior Analysts| How Is Collaboration Viewed among Their Professions?Manlapaz, Nicole M. 20 June 2018 (has links)
<p> The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study is to explore the perspectives of Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) and Behavior Analysts (BAs) related to their scopes of practice and their influence on collaboration. A methodological overview of qualitative, phenomenological interviewing will be described. Based on a collective analysis of the participants’ responses, several themes emerged related to barriers to collaboration between SLPs and BAs such as the following: (a) Influence of schedules and personality characteristics; (b) Lack of consensus of the relationship between behavior and communication; (c) Professional territorialism; (d) Perception of other professional’s level of competency; (5) Different theoretical backgrounds; and (e) Perceived inequities about insurance approval for therapy. The perspectives of SLPs and BAs are reported within each barrier to collaboration in order to provide further insight between these two professionals. Lastly, the importance of an interprofessional approach to collaboration when treating individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders is reviewed.</p><p>

The Role of the Speech-Language Pathologist when Working with Clients Who are Transgender| A Guide of Gender Identity and Cultural CompetencyWelch, Brett 15 September 2017 (has links)
<p> It is within the scope of practice of a speech-language pathologist to work with a client who is transgender for voice. However, regardless of the setting, a speech-language pathologist is likely to encounter a person who is transgender on their caseload. The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association mandates that all of its members be culturally competent when working with clients from different cultural backgrounds, including those from the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community. </p><p> This thesis pulls from sociological, linguistic, and queer theory literature to provide an in-depth understanding of identity, gender, and transgender identity formation. With this nuanced understanding of these topics, the thesis explores the practical implications to cultural competency, and voice and communication therapy. Additionally, this thesis reviews current topics for debate in Gender Spectrum Voice and Communication therapy.</p><p>

Relationships Between Auditory Temporal Processing, Language, and Reading Abilities in School-Aged ChildrenMisencik, Leann 11 August 2017 (has links)
<p> Previous research indicates that auditory temporal processing is related to phonological processing abilities in individuals with reading difficulties; however, additional research is needed that comprehensively investigates the relationships between specific auditory temporal processing, language, and reading skills in children. The purpose of the current study was to examine these relationships in school-aged children, using a comprehensive battery of clinically-relevant assessments. Statistically significant positive relationships were found between performance on tasks of temporal ordering and phonological awareness. No significant relationships were found between temporal resolution and phonological awareness tasks, or between temporal processing and reading tasks. This information provides additional insight into the relationship between auditory temporal processing and the phonological awareness skills that are critical for success in reading, and may contribute to the development of interventions to improve the phonological awareness abilities of struggling readers.</p><p>

Linguistic Differences in Individuals with Early Stage Alzheimer's Disease and the Normal Aging PopulationKomulaine, Julie L. 28 November 2017 (has links)
<p> Early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is crucial. The risk of progressing to advanced stages is higher among those in the earliest stages of AD, and early diagnosis can lead to more effective treatment. Language assessments can be effective in diagnosing AD early. The current study evaluated the effectiveness of action fluency tasks in detecting early AD. An individual with early AD and a normal aging individual participated in three verbal fluency tasks: letter, category, and action. Results revealed that the individual with early AD performed more poorly than the normal aging individual on most verbal fluency tasks, including action fluency. Comparison of these results to performance on a discourse production task revealed a correlation between the category and action fluency tasks and the discourse production task but no correlation with the letter fluency task. The findings add support to the effectiveness of action fluency tasks in detecting early AD.</p><p>
