This paper discusses the use of single subject controlled experimental designs for
investigating the effects of treatment for aphasia. A brief historical perspective is presented …

This text ntroduces readers to the history, epistemology, and strategies of single-case
research design. The authors offer concrete information on how to observe, measure, and …

Background: A new phonologically based treatment that we developed for addressing
naming deficits in aphasia—the phonological components analysis (PCA) treatment—is …

The location and extent of brain changes that support recovery in chronic stroke is probably
related to the structural integrity of the remaining cortex. However, little is known about the …

Background and Purpose—Most studies comparing different levels of aphasia treatment
intensity have not controlled the dosage of therapy provided. Consequently, the true effect of …

Background: There is a growing body of research that evaluates interventions for
neuropsychological impairments using single-case experimental designs and diversity of …

Attempts to personalize aphasia treatment to the extent where it is possible to reliably predict
individual response to a particular treatment have yielded inconclusive results. The current …

This investigation examined the effects of a semantic feature training procedure on retrieval
of action names in a participant with anomic aphasia. Treatment was applied sequentially …

Therapy for naming impairments post-stroke typically involves semantic and/or
phonologically-based tasks. However, the relationship between individuals' locus of …
