We reviewed current swallowing skill training approaches and framed existing evidence in the context of motor learning principles.Method: Searches were conducted across six databases (Scopus, CINHAL, MEDLINE, PUBMED, Emcare, and Web of Science) and the grey literature. Two researchers independently screened studies for inclusion using Covidence. English publications were included without time limitations.Result: Of 72 identified publications, 21 studies were included (15 empirical studies and 6 opinion-based papers). Four primary swallowing skill training approaches were identified, including: a) Floor of mouth surface electromyography, b) manometry, c) respiratory swallow coordination, and c) Iowa oral performance instrument. All approaches reported both improved swallowing function and patient reported outcomes. Whilst practice and feedback-related motor learning principles were incorporated in all approaches, their application varied across and within approaches.Conclusion: Swallowing skill training approaches can improve swallowing function and patients reported outcomes. However, to date, underlying methodologies are inconsistently described and motor learning principle are inconsistently applied. Further research is required in diverse populations to further optimise swallowing skill training outcomes.","PeriodicalId":49047,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Speech-Language Pathology","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145214103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The insights provided by academics served to amplify practitioner concerns rather than counter them.

This study evaluated an intervention which aimed to build capacity of parents in supporting children's language and literacy skills, implemented using Facebook.Method: A cross-sector partnership of Australian speech-language pathologists developed a suite of universal messages for parents to support their child's language development. Messages were delivered across 12 weeks via Facebook. A convergent mixed methods study design was used to evaluate survey responses from parents of children aged 0-5 years, before (n = 136) and after the intervention (n = 61). Social media analytics were collected.Result: Participants identified social media was a helpful way to receive information about supporting their child's language and literacy development, reporting an increase in knowledge following the intervention. Participants reported they trusted information provided in Facebook posts as it was from professionals and evidence-based sources. The usability (i.e. look and layout) was generally rated highly.Conclusion: Social media is a valuable tool for speech-language pathologists to deliver universal messages.

Caregivers attended a focus group to share their perspectives. Transcripts of these focus groups were analysed using reflexive thematic analysis.Result: Two themes were identified regarding caregiver engagement during Target Word™ intervention. Firstly, caregivers described explicit support roles for speech-language pathologists: (a) Beginning phase (clarify expectations), (b) middle phase (enable caregiver to link changes in their behaviour to positive child outcomes), and (c) final phase (empowered caregivers). Secondly, caregiver engagement is influenced by: (a) Individual needs and expectations, (b) active engagement during key learning moments, and (c) influence of the broader environment.Conclusion: Each caregiver participating in Target Word™ experienced unique engagement journeys over the course of the program.

The goal of this study was to test the effect of retrieval practice on word learning in children who are hard of hearing (HH).Method: Twenty-six TH children and 16 children who are HH completed a speech perception and a vocabulary test, and a rapid word-learning game to learn new words under no retrieval, immediate retrieval, and spaced retrieval conditions.Result: Linear mixed-effect models revealed that learning condition and time predicted 48% of the variance in word recognition, and age predicted 15% of word recall variance.

Children learned and remembered more words in the immediate and spaced retrieval practice conditions than in the no retrieval condition.Conclusion: Retrieval practice is more effective for word learning and retention than passive exposure (no retrieval).

It is hypothesised that persons with aphasia are more likely to use words with lower age of acquisition and higher concreteness, imageability and familiarity compared to the control group of neurologically intact adults, reflecting their lexical retrieval difficulties.Method: Language samples of picture descriptions, story narratives, and procedural discourse were extracted from AphasiaBank. Words in the samples were cross-referenced with lexical items in large-scale psycholinguistic norms.Result: Persons with aphasia tend to use words with lower age of acquisition in the story narrative task and higher familiarity in both the story narrative and procedural description task compared to the control group, demonstrating difficulties in retrieving later-acquired, and less familiar lexical items. Story narratives were particularly effective in distinguishing the two groups in terms of lexical psycholinguistic properties.Conclusion: Distinctive patterns of lexical psycholinguistic properties were found in persons with aphasia discourse production compared with the control groups.
