The Acquisition of Static and Dynamic Intervention Skills by Graduate Speech-Language Pathology Students
CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate that SLEs are efficacious in teaching students the clinical skills needed for actual clinical practice. Furthermore, we show that dynamic skills are more difficult for students to learn and implement than static skills, which suggests the need for greater attention to dynamic skill acquisition during clinical education.PMID:38477644 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00291 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)

A Comparison of Autistic and Non-Autistic College Students' Perceived Challenges and Engagement in Self-Advocacy
CONCLUSIONS: Findings highlight the need for systematic, individualized self-advocacy supports for autistic and other neurodivergent college students. In addition, findings show the need to educate peers and professors about autism and self-advocacy to foster a welcoming college environment. Finally, findings suggest the need for increased social support and opportunities for social integration within postsecondary settings. Speech-language pathologists play a critical role in implementing these next steps.PMID:38470839 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-22-00381 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)

Morphological Complexity in Writing: Implications for Writing Quality and Patterns of Change
CONCLUSIONS: The relation between MCW use and teachers' writing quality ratings highlights the utility of MCW as a written language measure for progress monitoring or assessment. The presence of differential change and potential Matthew effects for MLs and students with DLD substantiates the need for further exploration of instructional components that support the increased use of complex vocabulary.PMID:38451710 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00265 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)

Inhibitory Control, Cognitive Flexibility, and the Production of Disfluencies in Children Who Do and Do Not Stutter
CONCLUSIONS: CWS with reduced inhibitory control or cognitive flexibility produce more SLDs, but not other disfluencies. These results are partly in line with some previous findings in nonstuttering and stuttering populations linking inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility weaknesses to the production of speech disfluencies.PMID:38451741 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00242 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)

Exploring the Views, Perspectives, and Current Practices of Educational Speech-Language Pathologists and Psychologists in Canada: How Childhood Developmental Language Disorders Are Identified and Diagnosed
CONCLUSION: Both EPs and SLPs acknowledged the importance of working together; therefore, DLD could inspire more collaborative practice between SLPs and EPs around language disorders.PMID:38446909 | DOI:10.1044/2024_AJSLP-23-00170 (Source: American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology)
