Abstract

Purpose: In the field of dysphagia research, there is a need to establish a framework for the critical appraisal of methodological reporting. A working group was formed to develop a tool to aid in such critical appraisal across various domains of dysphagia research (called the FRONTIERS [Framework for RigOr aNd Transparency In REseaRch on Swallowing] Framework). The goal of the current paper is to present and describe one domain of this tool: noninstrumental assessment and screening tools.

Method: Methods describing the development of the FRONTIERS Framework and the associated tool are detailed in the prologue of this series.

Results: A set of questions specific to the critical appraisal of transparency and rigor of research involving noninstrumental screening and assessment tools was developed. This included 13 "yes/no" questions, each of which is presented with a rationale for its inclusion and an example of its implementation.

Conclusions: The use of this framework will serve researchers and those appraising the quality of research that uses noninstrumental dysphagia assessment and screening tools. More broadly, the FRONTIERS Framework will facilitate improved rigor and transparency across dysphagia research. Special considerations and future goals are discussed.

非仪器性吞咽困难评估和筛查：建议核对表。

目的：在吞咽困难研究领域，需要建立一个对方法报告进行严格评估的框架。我们成立了一个工作小组，以开发一种工具来帮助对吞咽困难研究的各个领域进行批判性评估（称为 FRONTIERS [吞咽研究中的严格与透明框架] 框架）。本文旨在介绍和描述该工具的一个领域：非仪器评估和筛查工具：方法：本系列序言中详细介绍了 FRONTIERS 框架和相关工具的开发方法：结果：针对对非工具性筛选和评估工具研究的透明度和严谨性进行批判性评估的问题集已经开发完成。其中包括 13 个 "是/否 "问题，每个问题都附有纳入理由和实施示例：结论：本框架的使用将有助于研究人员以及对使用非工具性吞咽困难评估和筛查工具的研究质量进行评估的人员。更广泛地说，FRONTIERS 框架将有助于提高吞咽困难研究的严谨性和透明度。本文还讨论了特别注意事项和未来目标。

期刊介绍： Mission: AJSLP publishes peer-reviewed research and other scholarly articles on all aspects of clinical practice in speech-language pathology. The journal is an international outlet for clinical research pertaining to screening, detection, diagnosis, management, and outcomes of communication and swallowing disorders across the lifespan as well as the etiologies and characteristics of these disorders. Because of its clinical orientation, the journal disseminates research findings applicable to diverse aspects of clinical practice in speech-language pathology. AJSLP seeks to advance evidence-based practice by disseminating the results of new studies as well as providing a forum for critical reviews and meta-analyses of previously published work. Scope: The broad field of speech-language pathology, including aphasia; apraxia of speech and childhood apraxia of speech; aural rehabilitation; augmentative and alternative communication; cognitive impairment; craniofacial disorders; dysarthria; fluency disorders; language disorders in children; speech sound disorders; swallowing, dysphagia, and feeding disorders; and voice disorders.
