"Language and Social Disadvantage" critically analyses and reviews the development of language in direct relation to social disadvantage in the early years and beyond. Definitions and descriptions of social disadvantage are addressed and wider aspects discussed. Theory and practice in relation to language development and social disadvantage are explored.

The book is divided into two sections: the first addresses the theoretical associations and relationships between social disadvantage and language, where cognition, literacy, behaviour, learning, socio-emotional development, intervention and outcomes are considered in depth. The second section applies the theory to practice, where real-life intervention studies in nurseries, schools and other contexts are reported. Research and practice based in the UK is a focus of all the chapters and research reports.

A genuinely interdisciplinary and collaborative approach is taken using perspectives from speech and language therapy, psychology and education. The book is ideal for professionals and students interested in the study of language development and intervention in the context of social disadvantage.

''Dysphagia Assessment and Treatment Planning: A Team Approach, Fourth Edition'' is ideal for graduate dysphagia courses in speech-language pathology programs. The unique value of this book is the multidisciplinary approach it presents. Too often, speech-language pathologists function clinically with insufficient interaction with, or understanding of, the roles of other professionals involved with their patients. This text incorporates information pertinent to the roles, tools, and views of a multidisciplinary dysphagia team, including physicians, speech pathologists, nurse specialists, and dieticians, that work together on a daily basis. In this fourth edition the organization has changed, with chapters concerned with assessment techniques coming first, and material addressing special populations comprising the latter portion of the text. This reflects what is likely a more typical approach to dysphagia in graduate courses concerned with the topic, and one that complements teaching of the subject matter. Updates to the Fourth Edition include: *The treatment chapter (Ch. 10) has been updated to reflect the current status of therapeutic approaches previously considered in treating dysphagic patients. *Chapters dealing with nursing (Ch. 11) and nutrition (Ch. 12) have been updated to incorporate the latest recommendations in nursing care and dietary considerations for patients experiencing dysphagia. *The pediatrics chapter (Ch. 13) has been expanded to address specific problems and needs not only of infants, but also the entire spectrum of childhood. *A chapter devoted to the esophagus (Ch. 14) addresses new information on the management of esophageal disorders, including the novel double-balloon dilation of the UES, and a device for manually opening the upper esophagus. *Chapters addressing special populations, including neurogenic disease (Ch. 15) and head and neck cancer (Ch. 16), incorporate the latest information regarding dysphagia and approaches to treatment pertinent to each group. *A brand-new addition to the book is Ch. 18 which addresses dysphagia associated with alterations to the spine as a consequence of either disease or surgery. *A major new inclusion in the current edition are materials utilizing a new software program, called "Swallowtail," that permits the all-in-one measurement, display and storage of timing, displacement and other measures from fluoroscopic studies. ''Dysphagia Assessment and Treatment Planning'' comes with a PluralPlus companion website that includes videos of patient studies which were selected to represent impairments typically observed in clinical practice (inpatient and outpatient). Other media clips illustrate each instrumental assessment technique introduced in the book (e.g., endoscopic, transnasal esophagoscopy, high resolution manometry), performed on a variety of dysphagic patients. ''Dysphagia Assessment and Treatment Planning Workbook, Fourth Edition'', is also included in this package. It includes practical exercises accompanying each chapter. The exercises are designed to clarify and expand on information presented in the text and should be of interest not only to students but to practicing clinicians hoping to add new skills to their repertoires. The workbook has been thoroughly updated to reflect the new organization and content of the textbook.

Meike Schulte geht der Frage nach, inwieweit sich die Effektivitat der Aphasietherapie in der chronischen Phase steigern lasst. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird in dieser Studie die kombinierte Intervention aus einem gruppentherapeutischen Therapiekonzept (CIAT-COLLOC NK) und einer nicht-invasiven Hirnstimulationsmethode (tDCS) erprobt. Diese Verbindung erweist sich als ausserst effektiv. Alle teilnehmenden Probanden profitieren von der kombinierten Intervention. UEberwiegend lasst sich zudem der isolierte Mehrwert der Hirnstimulation belegen. Weiterhin wird deutlich, dass die Kontrolle der diversen Einflussfaktoren auf dieses Therapiegefuge eine besondere Herausforderung darstellt. Innerhalb von Folgestudien mussen diese ersten Ergebnisse anhand von groesseren Stichproben abgesichert werden. Die Autorin Meike Schulte hat sich in ihrem Forschungsprojekt an der RWTH Aachen und im Rahmen ihrer Mitarbeit in der Sektion Klinische Kognitionswissenschaften mit der Erprobung verschiedener Hirnstimulationsmethoden befasst. Derzeitig ist sie in der klinischen Versorgung von Schlaganfallpatienten tatig.

In diesem Buch untersucht Andreas Wolfs die Viabilitat oder Brauchbarkeit der Nutzung von Schlusselbegriffen einer systemisch-konstruktivistischen Padagogik im Zusammenhang mit der logopadischen Therapie. Im Ergebnis lasst sich festhalten, dass die Nutzung der Schlusselbegriffe es Logopadinnen und Logopaden ermoeglicht, Aspekte der ICF (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health), des Clinical Reasonings und der Therapiephasen zu beschreiben und sich individueller und zielgerichteter auf die Wunsche und Bedurfnisse ihrer Patientinnen und Patienten einlassen zu koennen. Daruber hinaus kann die Nutzung eines systemisch-konstruktivistischen Paradigmas der Erwachsenenpadagogik dazu beitragen, die Bedeutung der Padagogik als Grundlagenwissenschaft fur den therapeutischen Bereich zu vergroessern.

Primary Progressive Aphasia and Other Frontotemporal Dementias: Diagnosis and Treatment of Associated Communication Disorders is the second volume in the "Medical Speech-Language Pathology" book series. It is intended to fill an unmet need to assist clinicians, students, and related healthcare professionals in the diagnosis and treatment of the title disorders. There is a growing population of individuals diagnosed with various forms of Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) and Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA), and this number is likely to increase as medical practitioners and speech-language pathologists (SLPs) become more expert at identifying these conditions. More clinicians will be seeing, and treating, patients with a diagnosis of FTD or PPA. Toward that end, the goal of this book is to expand this clinical knowledge base and support the development of skills in diagnosis, but also in clinical management. Within each chapter is a concise presentation of available evidence-based practice and research findings, with a focus on sharing information that is clinically applicable and digestible for non-researchers. Each chapter provides a comprehensive outline of testing that will assist in the diagnosis of the cognitive-communication disorders associated with FTD, PPAs, and primary progressive apraxia of speech (PPAOS). Primary Progressive Aphasia and Other Frontotemporal Dementias is targeted toward practicing clinicians, graduate students, and clinical researchers who are interested in the latest conceptualization of FTD spectrum disorders. The intent is that this book provides clinical pearls to assist in diagnostic assessments and treatment planning. The book also comes with a PluralPlus companion website containing full color images from the text and supplementary videos.

This is a practical, accessible manual for Speech and Language Therapists, Educational Psychologists and Educators who assess children with language impairments, explaining how and why to implement Dynamic Assessment and gives you a huge range of ready-to-use, practical tools. Where normal assessments simply identify deficits, Dynamic Assessment also identifies the child's potential to learn by allowing for prompts from you, during the assessment, thus far better informing your decisions about appropriate interventions and strategies to help the children you work with. What does this manual offer? Provides a concise introduction to the principles of Dynamic Assessment to make clear the enormous benefits of applying this approach to the assessment of language. Presents a full example of a Dynamic Assessment of Sentence Structure (DASS) to demonstrate how the principles are implemented and the findings applied to plan more effective interventions. All the materials for the DASS are included so that you can use this assessment immediately. Includes numerous templates, generic prompt sheets, score sheets and materials that you can adapt for use in Dynamic Assessments that you devise yourself. Written by Dr Natalie Hasson, a highly experienced Speech and Language Therapist who leads the field in researching the dynamic assessment of language, this is the only Dynamic Assessment manual of its kind.

Often, books on neurogenic language disorders view individuals with these disorders as a homogeneous group - ethnically, culturally, and linguistically. Adult Neurogenic Language Disorders: Assessment and Treatment - A Comprehensive Ethnobiological Approach, Second Edition examines how the country's ever-changing demographics require sensitivity and competency in clinicians treating individuals from diverse backgrounds, and also how those demographics relate to health disparities. As in the previous edition, this second edition addresses the three key disorders that affect adults: language/cognitive disorders associated with dementia, language/cognitive disorders associated with traumatic brain injury, and aphasia and right-hemisphere disorders.This new edition includes updated and expanded information on the following topics: Types, prevalence, and assessment of neurogenic language disorders Educating and counseling patients and their families New technologies and new therapies available for treatment Clinician resources with literature and Internet sources Another new feature to this edition is the companion website, which provides PowerPoint lectures with illustrations for each chapter, a total of 100 multiple-choice questions, and associated instructor answer keys. Several pedagogical features are also included in this text: Study questions at the end of each chapter Illustrations of site(s) of lesions, abnormal cell inclusions, and other neuropathologies in types of dementia, neuropathologies of head trauma, and stroke Reference tables that compare the dementias, aphasias, and traumatic brain injuries and characteristics of associated language/cognitive disorders Updated glossary of terms and updated references This much-needed text illustrates the impact of cultural and ethnic diversity in neurogenic language disorders on medical speech-language pathology caseloads.
