Apraxia of Speech: A Comparison of EPG Treatment & Sound Production Treatment
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating EPG Tx and SPT for Apraxia of Speech and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 6 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of the proposed research is to examine the effects of two treatment approaches on speech production involving speakers with chronic apraxia of speech (AOS) and aphasia. The planned investigation is designed to examine the acquisition, maintenance and generalization effects of each treatment. One approach, electropalatography (EPG) uses visual biofeedback in conjunction with articulatory-kinematic treatment and the other approach, sound production treatment (SPT) is one of the most systematically studied articulatory-kinematic treatments for AOS.
