“…While most previous studies individually examined a specific narrative type, such as story-telling (e.g. Coelho & Flewellyn, 2003;Lindsey et al, 2018) or picture descriptions (e.g. Galetto et al, 2013), the present investigation have considered a range of elicitation tasks with reference to AphasiaBank protocol.…”

Purpose: Coherence can reflect subtle language deficits in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and cerebrovascular accident (CVA). This study aimed to investigate whether global and local coherence in Cantonese-speaking adults with CVA and TBI differ from non-brain-injured (NBI) speakers. Factors contributing to the coherence ratings and impacts of elicitation tasks on coherence were examined.Method: Two clinical groups with fluent aphasia (7 CVA and 11 TBI) and 18 controls matched in age and education, who were Cantonese speakers living in China participated. Language samples of single and sequential picture description and storytelling were elicited, and subsequently analysed on global and local coherence, content sequence, and informativeness.Result: TBI speakers had impaired global and local coherence, while CVA speakers had poor global coherence. Sequence of main events produced by the three groups correlated significantly with global coherence. Attention and visuospatial skills were also significantly related to global coherence in both clinical groups. Finally, impaired language integrity was associated with problems of local coherence. Conclusion:The results were consistent with previous studies. Linguistic deficits of coherence in discourse in the two clinical groups and possible impacts of elicitation tasks on the cognitive demands and coherence ratings were discussed.

“…The pertinent professional literature continues to abound across fields, including special education, school psychology, social work, and pediatrics, although not necessarily within them (e.g., Smith & Canto, 2015). The foci of these various articles include characteristics and incidence (e.g., Blankenship & Canto, 2018), symptomology (e.g., Rees, 2016); instrumentation (e.g., Cohen et al, 2019;Lindsey, Hurley, Mozeiko, & Coelho, 2019); teacher training (e.g., Davies, Fox, Glang, Ettel, & Thomas, 2013;Ettel, Glang, Todis, & Davies, 2016), treatment (e.g., Kelly, Dunford, Forsyth, & Kavcic, 2019), and, especially, interventions (e.g., Canto & Eftaxas, 2018;Chavez-Arana et al, 2018;Jantz, Davies, & Bigler, 2014;Utley, Obiakor, & Obi, 2019) of ABI.…”

As educators and parents of children with disabilities, we recognize that students with significant disabilities benefit from research-based strategies to support the development of academic and social learning. We regularly use systematic instruction and behavior supports to provide day-today instruction, yet this same detailed planning is not always carried through to support these students in preparation for school crises. Whether a student with a significant disability is in a weather-related event such as a tornado or a larger crisis such as a school shooting, she or he likely needs intensive instruction with research-based strategies in order to survive. In this article, we discuss the critical issue of systematically inquiring about the specific needs of students with significant disabilities as they pertain to staying safe in school crises and introduce why and how to write an Individual Emergency and Lockdown Plan (IELP) for these students.

“…CCDs resulting from TBI commonly reflect shifts in cognitive processes such as attention, memory and executive functioning (Lindsey et al., 2019; Marini et al., 2016; Strauss Hough & Barrow, 2003). These processes support linguistic functioning and are integral to effective and efficient communication (College of Audiologists and Speech–Language Pathologists, 2015; Larkins, 2007; Togher et al., 2014).…”

“…Individuals with a CCD after TBI can, for example, display a variety of impaired communicative profiles. They may present with disorganized discourse that lacks critical content and contains superfluous information (Lê et al., 2011; Lindsey et al., 2019; Marini et al., 2017; Snow & Douglas, 2000; Strauss Hough & Barrow, 2003). They may also display poor pragmatic skills, speak impulsively and fail to acknowledge social cues (Body et al., 1999; Douglas et al., 2000).…”

Background & Aims:The present retrospective study examines veterans and military personnel who have sustained a cognitive-communication deficit/disorder (CCD) and/or aphasia secondary to traumatic brain injury (TBI).The prevalence of each disorder secondary to TBI is identified and demographic factors are analysed to determine whether specific characteristics (age, gender, race and/or ethnicity) differentially influenced diagnosis (CCD or aphasia). Methods & Procedures: A retrospective analysis examining the prevalence of CCD and aphasia among US service personnel with a complicated mildto-severe TBI treated over a 4-year period (1 January 2016-31 December 2019) was conducted. Medical diagnoses and demographic factors were obtained from administrative data repositories and a logistic regression was performed to identify the relationship between demographic factors and diagnoses.Outcomes & Results: Analyses revealed that 8.8% of individuals studied had a secondary diagnosis of CCD (6.9%), aphasia (1.5%) or both (0.4%). This signifies 6863 cases of CCD, 1516 cases of aphasia and 396 cases of CCD and aphasia (dual diagnosis) per 100,000 individuals who have sustained a complicated mild-tosevere TBI. The proportion of cases observed with these diagnoses was consistent with the racial, gender and ethnic demographics of those diagnosed with TBI. Statistical modelling revealed that increased age is predictive of a diagnosis of aphasia relative to CCD. Conclusions & Implications: Service personnel sustaining TBIs are at increased risk of communication impairments with deficits observed across all gender, racial and ethnic demographics. CCD is more commonly observed than aphasia, though clinicians should be cognisant of both when performing assessments. Age is a factor that can influence diagnosis.
