Implementation of Life Participation Approach for Persons with Aphasia
Get PDFObjectives Explain the Life Participation Approach to Aphasia (LPAA) and how it relates to persons with aphasia and their caregivers. Discuss the significance of Life Participation Approach to Aphasia (LPAA) and explain how it can be implemented in the community, as well as what resources are available for Persons with aphasia (PWA) and their caregivers. Perform activities that observe the Life Participation Approach to Aphasia.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1014/thumbnail.jp
Individuals with TBI: Language Processing and Pragmatic Considerations
Get PDFIndividuals with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) often present with some degree of compromised language processing (LP). This may impact the rate and accuracy individuals with TBI process language which can lead to pragmatic concerns. This presentation will focus on how each end of LP may impact components of pragmatic language, including but not limited to topic maintenance, turn-taking abilities, relevancy of response, and listening skills. Pragmatic deficits (PD) may impact the ability to create and sustain human connection or participate in vocational settings resulting in negative impacts on quality of life. Although behaviors of accelerated LP may overlap with executive functioning (EF) deficits, embodying a conversation-based treatment approach may be more functional, applicable, and generalizable. Assessment of the relationship between compromised LP and PD may help to create specific, functional goals to address in speech-language therapy within TBI populations to improve treatment outcomes.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1020/thumbnail.jp
Peer Socialization for Individuals Who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing
Get PDFPeer relationships are needed for positive development, but children who are deaf/hard of hearing (DHH) experience difficulties when socializing with their typically hearing peers. This poster will provide an overview of various supports that can be put in place to facilitate socialization for DHH children with their hearing peers. Opportunities for practitioners and parents to promote peer socialization will be provided.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1026/thumbnail.jp
Why Speech Therapists Are Using Non-Words to treat Speech Sound Disorders in Children
Get PDFThis poster aims to examine why speech therapists use non-words (NWs) to treat speech sound disorders (SSDs) in children. The science behind lexical and phonological learning can play a role in using non-words in therapy. Both real and non-words have been used to treat speech sound disorders. Using real words in treatment can help the child with sound generalizations, while using non-words, the child focuses exclusively on the words\u27 articulation and phonological forms. Knowledge of what non-words, phonological, and lexical representations are willing better help understand the benefits of using non-words in therapy sessions.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1032/thumbnail.jp
Infant Cognition as a Predictor of Language Development
Get PDFThrough everyday interactions with their caregivers, most infants readily acquire early communication that leads to the development of listening and spoken language. However, a child\u27s cognitive abilities may predict their language acquisition trajectory and the complexity of language they ultimately achieve. This poster describes the cognitive skills which are known predictors of language acquisition. Furthermore, this poster offers suggested intervention activities which caregivers and professionals can utilize to enhance the development of language in young children.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1038/thumbnail.jp
Benefits of Interprofessional Collaboration for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Students
Get PDFInterprofessional collaboration is essential to serve and maximize outcomes for students who are deaf and hard of hearing. Speech-language pathologists, audiologists, otolaryngologists, and educators are among the many professionals that serve deaf and hard of hearing students. Although each of these professionals serve this population, interprofessional collaboration is often minimal and lacking. Strategies to implement successful interprofessional collaboration will be identified, as well as why interprofessional collaboration for the deaf and hard of hearing population is crucial. The impact of interprofessional collaboration on outcomes for deaf and hard of hearing students will also be discussed.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/slp-posters-2023/1041/thumbnail.jp
Advocacy Builders Project: Neighborhood & Built Environment
No full textIt’s hard to have a conversation about food without some value assignment taking place. From the start, there are “healthy” foods and “unhealthy” foods; cheap or expensive foods; rich or lean foods; organic or non-organic foods. There are many pairings, and all of them usually come with some sort of positive and negative bend, with individuals making the choice to select something “bad” or “good.” Time after time in this project, we’ve illuminated the ways that systems are designed to shift their intentionally designed failings as individual responsibilities; therefore, it should come as no surprise that our food system (including food bought out and brought home) in the United States, worth over 2 trillion dollars, is another place where obfuscation is occurring.https://griffinshare.fontbonne.edu/westories-advocacy-builders/1001/thumbnail.jp
