Perspectives of U.S. speech-language pathologists on supporting the psychosocial health of individuals with aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: This research highlights the necessity of increased training, as well as improved interprofessional collaboration between SLPs and mental health professionals. Limitations of the study include the potential bias of respondents, as well as the number and scope of the questions and responses. Future studies can employ interviews, trial models for collaboration, and partner with IWA to explore their experiences with psychosocial health support and services.PMID:37481944 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2023.106365 (Source: Journal of Communication Disorders)

Alternative audiometric calibration methods: Evaluation of sound level measuring apps for audiometric calibration
J Commun Disord. 2023 Jul 13;105:106351. doi: 10.1016/j.jcomdis.2023.106351. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAudiometric calibration, which includes the calibration of different audiometer transducers and the measurements of ambient noise levels, is historically carried out using Class 1 sound level meters. As technologies advance, many mobile applications (apps) have been developed to measure sound levels. These apps can provide alternative methods for audiometric calibration in places where sound level meters are not available, such as field testing environments, low-to-mid-income countries, and humanitarian settings.

Speech and phonological impairment across Alzheimer's disease severity
CONCLUSIONS: The type of phonological and phonetic manifestations in the individuals with AD differed according to the dementia stage and were statistically more frequent as dementia worsened.PMID:37453160 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2023.106364 (Source: Journal of Communication Disorders)

Telepractice in speech-language pathology: Assessing remote speech discrimination
CONCLUSIONS: TALSA speech discrimination can be administered remotely to evaluate potential perceptual influences on auditory comprehension. In remote assessment, participants demonstrated the expected pattern of more accurate speech discrimination for word stimuli than for non-words. The non-word TALSA condition may be particularly useful for detecting speech perception impairment, both in face-to-face and telepractice sessions. Similar performance of participants in both live voice and recorded conditions of the NU-6 word lists suggests that recordings used in SLP receptive language or memory assessment, including the TA...
