Quantifying Dosage in Self-Managed Speech-Language Therapy: Exploring Components of Cumulative Intervention Intensity in a Real-World Mobile Health Data Set
CONCLUSIONS: The calculation of CII may provide both users and clinicians with a fuller picture of at-home, self-managed practice habits than looking at any one dosage component alone. The study represents a first step toward more comprehensive and theoretically grounded dose reporting for self-managed SLT.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.25511191.PMID:38573233 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00285 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)

Speech-Language Outcomes in the COVID-19 Milieu for Multilingual Jamaican Preschoolers and Considerations for Telepractice Assessments
CONCLUSIONS: Findings from this investigation serve to characterize the communicative participation and functional speech intelligibility of TD bilingual Jamaican preschoolers and those with fSSDs in the COVID-19 milieu. By extension, the results comparing data from preschoolers collected during the pandemic to an existing corpus of baseline data from a different group of preschoolers provide critical insights about multilingual children's speech-language outcomes in the context of acutely changing environmental circumstances.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.25461505.PMID:38573244 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJS...

Muscle Tension Dysphagia: An Expanded Investigation of Clinical Presentations and Swallowing Kinematics
CONCLUSIONS: Individuals demonstrated abnormalities in the clinical evaluation of the areas of palpation and reported perilaryngeal discomfort and symptoms of laryngeal hyperresponsiveness, with a negative impact on their quality of life across various PROs. Atypical hyoid and/or hyolaryngeal excursion during swallowing was rare when compared to available normative reference values. The clinical evaluation of MTDg may be enhanced by including components related to muscle tension and laryngeal hyperresponsiveness in order to differentiate MTDg from idiopathic functional dysphagia and lead the patient to the otolaryngology/s...

Impact of an International Training on Interventionists' Expertise in Cleft Palate Speech: Results From Oaxaca, Mexico
CONCLUSIONS: Findings provide preliminary support for such two-stage international trainings in preparing local speech interventionists to deliver high-quality speech services to individuals born with cleft palate. While content knowledge appears to be acquired primarily from the online course, the two-stage training incorporating in-person supervised practice working with individuals born with cleft palate may best enhance continued clinical skill development, including replacement of NSOME with evidence-based speech treatment. Such trainings contribute to building capacity for sustainable quality services for this popula...

Project Building Bridges: A Framework for Preparing Highly Qualified Speech-Language Pathologists to Serve Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Students With Augmentative and Alternative Communication Needs
CONCLUSIONS: Project Building Bridges provides a framework for preparing highly qualified speech-language pathologists to serve culturally and linguistically diverse students who benefit from AAC as evidenced by pre- and postsurvey results. The project can serve as a model for other university programs in the development of preservice preparation programs focusing on culturally and linguistically diverse students with AAC needs.PMID:38536710 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00257 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)

Increasing Reciprocal Social Interactions Between Children Who Use Augmentative and Alternative Communication and Peers Using a Collaborative Learning Framework
CONCLUSIONS: Collaborative learning frameworks may be used to increase reciprocal social interactions between children who use AAC and their peers. Speech-language pathologists should consider utilizing collaborative learning elements in activities with children who use AAC. Future research is needed to further explore collaborative learning frameworks for interventions for children who use AAC.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.25464064.PMID:38536727 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00405 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)
