Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine a novel telepractice screening protocol for people with poststroke aphasia that assesses both language and extralinguistic cognitive abilities via both performance-based and patient-reported measures.METHODTwenty-one participants with previously diagnosed poststroke aphasia completed the telepractice administration of the Frenchay Aphasia Screening Test (FAST), the Aphasia Impact Questionnaire-21 (AIQ-21), the Oxford Cognitive Screen (OCS), and the Cognitive-Communication Checklist for Acquired Brain Injury (CCCABI). Care partners of the participants completed the Communicative Effectiveness Index (CETI). After the telepractice session, each participant completed a feasibility questionnaire to rate their overall experience.RESULTSAll participants screened as having aphasia. Pearson correlation analyses yielded a strong positive relationship between OCS and FAST scores (r = .74), a strong relationship between OCS and CCCABI scores (r = -.71), and a moderate relationship between FAST and AIQ-21 scores (r = -.35). Moderate relationships were noted between the performance-based measures and the CETI (r = .30). The overall feasibility of telepractice administration was rated positively by each participant. No significant relationships were found between the feasibility responses and participant characteristics.CONCLUSIONSOverall, the telepractice screening protocol yielded an effective and feasible way to identify poststroke aphasia. Similar to in-person administration of screening measures, it was more difficult to identify milder levels of aphasia severity. Future research should examine whether this telescreening protocol can identify poststroke aphasia within the broader stroke population.","PeriodicalId":49240,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142223914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Life Participation Approach to Aphasia encourages meaningful participation in life for people living with aphasia. In theory, providing participation-based services to people with aphasia seems logical; however, embedding these constructs of participation into practice can be challenging for speech-language pathologists (SLPs). Project-based intervention (PBI) provides an authentic opportunity to target participation and support identity reformulation in aphasia intervention. Historically, projects have been provided primarily in group-based settings, which may be difficult for the majority of SLPs who primarily offer individual sessions due to reimbursement. This tutorial provides a framework for using PBI in individual sessions for clients with aphasia using five evidence-based components: (a) shared decision making, (b) patient-reported outcomes, (c) goal setting, (d) the project, and (e) ongoing evaluation. Evidence-based tools and a case example are provided to support each component.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Projects and PBI provide tangible means of placing participation at the center of intervention while also providing opportunities to target language impairments, identity reconstruction, and various environments in a meaningful and personalized way.

The presence of cognates between the two languages can lead to differential interpretations of naming performance.
