Identification of profile indicators for optimal language of therapy in the treatment of non-monolingual individuals
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This critical review examines the importance of language of therapy on outcomes across languages in nonmonolingual individuals with aphasia. A literature search was completed and yielded the following study designs: one single subject design and four individual case studies. With fair consistency (4/5 studies), research suggests that treatment provided in one language confers a generalized benefit to the other languages of the individuals with aphasia; however, premorbid language proficiency levels may affect the different patterns of generalization. Identification of profile indicators for optimal language of therapy in the treatment of non-monolingual individuals with aphasia has not yet occurred.
