I want to “like” my own post because this is so key to the tension between practice and research at the moment…. More thoughts later #SLPeeps
How do we define a successful therapy session? The child was happy and loved the activities? Or how they did on their goals? #bskySPEECHIES

Assessment tools must be translated AND adapted to match language differences #IALP2025

Essential characteristics of bilingual aphasia assessment tools: psychometrically sound & standardised, time efficient & easy administration, need to incorporate both language comprehension & production, reading & writing assessment, cultural & linguistic considerations & bilingual eval #IALP2025

Recovery patterns in bilingual #aphasia may vary - parallel recovery, differential recovery, antagonistic recovery, alternating antagonism, blending recovery, selective aphasia, successive recovery #IALP2025
