To extend the use of the Spanish Computer-assisted Anomia Rehabilitation Program (CARP-2) for anomia from a single case to a group of 15 people with aphasia. To evaluate whether the treatment is active (Phase 1) for this group (Robey & Schultz, 1998), providing potential explanations as to why.
Fifteen participants with chronic aphasia (with a range from moderate to mild anomia) were recruited to 15 weeks of computer-assisted therapy for anomia. A single treatment period with pre- and post-treatment assessments evaluated participants' ability to name 200 words using the multiple cues provided by the computer. Pre- and post-naming measures of all items examined the effect of treatment. Background linguistic and cognitive skills were measured before and after the therapy to investigate whether the improvements in naming were therapy specific.
All 15 participants showed significant benefits in their naming skills after the therapy. There were no changes to cognitive and linguistic skills unrelated to anomia. There was evidence of some carry-over effects in naming.
The Spanish Computer-assisted Anomia Rehabilitation Program (CARP-2) for anomia is an active treatment for a range of people who have anomia as part of their aphasia profile.
By the end of the paper you will be able to answer the CEU questions and consider whether to use computer assisted therapy on a wide range of clients with anomia difficulties.
将西班牙语计算机辅助失命名症康复程序(CARP - 2)从单病例应用扩展至15名失语症患者群体。评估该治疗对这一群体是否具有有效性(第1阶段)(罗比和舒尔茨,1998年),并给出相关潜在原因解释。
招募15名慢性失语症患者(失命名症程度从中度到轻度不等),进行为期15周的计算机辅助失命名症治疗。采用单一治疗期,并在治疗前后进行评估,利用计算机提供的多种线索评估参与者对200个单词的命名能力。对所有项目的命名前和命名后测量考察了治疗效果。在治疗前后测量背景语言和认知技能,以调查命名能力的提高是否具有治疗特异性。
所有15名参与者在治疗后命名技能均有显著改善。与失命名症无关的认知和语言技能没有变化。有证据表明在命名方面存在一些迁移效应。
西班牙语计算机辅助失命名症康复程序(CARP - 2)对一系列患有失命名症且伴有失语症的患者是一种有效的治疗方法。
在本文结尾,你将能够回答继续教育学分问题,并考虑是否对广泛存在失命名症困难的客户使用计算机辅助治疗。
