Linking Clinic With Classroom in Intensive Focused Preservice Education on Augmentative and Alternative Communication
CONCLUSION: This study suggests the significance of compulsory fieldwork embedded in the AAC training as evidenced by the graduate students' subjective perception of competence and preparedness in AAC services following the AAC course.PMID:37724941 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-23-00020

Implementation of Esophageal Screening in an Outpatient Hospital-Based Setting: A Quality Improvement Project
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this QIP show that focusing on assessment of dysfunction and interplay across the swallowing continuum can substantially improve patient care by expediting and specifying next steps of the multidisciplinary dysphagia care team.PMID:37722389 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-23-00069

Objective and Subjective Clustering Methods for Verb Fluency Responses From Individuals With Alzheimer's Dementia and Cognitively Healthy Older Adults
CONCLUSIONS: The results from using the objective clustering method in this study are consistent with the previous literature, making it a viable option for clustering analyses on the verb fluency task, which naturally minimizes subjectivity and rater bias. Alternatively, employing a thoroughly validated and reliable subjective approach can also mitigate potential rater bias and improve replicability across studies.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.24061017.PMID:37722380 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-22-00290

A Measure of Swallow Effort Using the Borg Category Ratio 10 Perceived Exertion Scale
CONCLUSION: Results suggest that the Borg CR 10 is a reasonable measurement tool to capture patient-perceived effort in swallowing.PMID:37713539 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-23-00090

Speech-Language Pathologists' Preparation, Practices, and Perspectives on Serving Indigenous Families and Children
CONCLUSIONS: Very few respondents had training on serving Indigenous children and families, yet they had overall awareness of educational disparities experienced by this group. Respondents reported challenges with developing relationships and overcoming access barriers. Their clinical practices were not as tailored to the language and learning needs of Indigenous children, especially when compared to practices recommended in two recent scoping reviews. The Indigenous Connectedness Framework, the abundance model, and Indigenous pedagogies are presented as ways to initiate change and meaningful engagement with Indigenous fam...

Clinical Practice in Childhood Dysarthria: An Online Survey of German-Speaking Speech-Language Pathologists
CONCLUSIONS: German-speaking SLPs working with children with neurological conditions use various assessment and treatment methods to support children's communication. However, dysarthria-specific approaches were not an established part of clinical practice. Results of the survey highlight the need for access to relevant developments in German and for evaluation of current curricula for speech-language pathology students and continuing education opportunities for practicing clinicians.PMID:37707370 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-23-00076

A Mixed-Methods Analysis of Speech-Language Pathologists' Executive Function Services
CONCLUSIONS: Speech-language pathology graduate programs and providers of professional development should be mindful of their role in preparing SLPs to address EF needs, while SLPs may use these results to inform their own practice. Further guidance and research are necessary to elucidate the SLPs' role in mitigating the negative impact of EF challenges on students' education.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.24101241.PMID:37707364 | DOI:10.1044/2023_AJSLP-22-00238

A Know-Brainer: The Power of Cadaver-Based Instruction to Teach Clinical Neuroanatomy
CONCLUSIONS: Cadaver-based instruction was more effective in improving students' ability to identify neuroanatomy compared to lecture for CSD students. Interestingly, cadaver-based demonstrations were also most effective in bolstering students' retention of structural knowledge when conducted before, instead of after, a lecture. Clinical training programs, specifically student learning outcomes, benefit from cadaver-based instruction that provides both three-dimensional orientation and a deep appreciation of the human elements of clinical anatomy. Furthermore, both the acquisition and retention of anatomical concepts may b...
