At #ASHA24 there were 2 papers of systematic reviews of #GestaltLanguageProcessing by SEPARATE research groups!

1. Ours - systematic review - empty
2. Theirs - systematic review - empty

Ours had a tighter inclusion criteria.
So even a looser inclusion criteria made no difference to the result.

The needs assessments are a #costsaving measure. Disability must never be a political scorecard. What message does the government want to send to the highly qualified allied health sector? #donttrashthendis
