Teaching, Learning, and Research Hub
A research laboratory is the center of discovery and training of researchers at every level of experience and expertise. Research integrity pervades all aspects of lab life, beginning the moment a new student enters the lab and continuing through the development of independent research projects and programs. Human subject research...
Clinical Research—It’s Relevant Audiologists are evidence-based practitioners. We are challenged to work in an evolving field with rapid advances in technology and changes in health care practices. It is imperative that clinicians remain abreast of current research in audiology to ensure the highest quality of hearing services to our patients....
Clinical Research—Considering Implementation as a Goal Evidence for the efficacy of assessments and treatments of communication disorders has increased over the years; so, too, has the need to learn how to move these protocols into practice. Investigators are becoming increasingly aware of the need and the processes involved in impacting...
Advancing Clinical Practice Research in CSD The need for high-quality clinical practice research in communication sciences and disorders (CSD) is far outpacing the growth of the evidence base (McCrea, 2014). Clinical practice research is a subset of the larger domain of clinical research, which comprises a wide range of research...
Single-subject experimental designs – also referred to as within-subject or single case experimental designs – are among the most prevalent designs used in CSD treatment research. These designs provide a framework for a quantitative, scientifically rigorous approach where each participant provides his or her own experimental control. What is Single-Subject...
I remember the day I received my first grant, funded by the National Institute of Deafness and Communication Disorders—even though that day was almost 30 years ago. I was so excited; I made my research assistant dance a can-can with me. I would get release time from courses; I would...
I think the changing demographics is going to change all landscapes. There are going to be so many people who are living longer, and living with all these different chronic conditions. It’s going to be much more expensive to be able to support the older people as they live longer....
I think it’s stronger when you have an interdisciplinary approach. We have a fairly active vestibular balance lab. There are four investigators that collaborate on research experiments. One physical therapist and three PhD audiologists. I guess what I’ve become really aware of is the contribution that other fields can bring...
I’ve spent a life trying to develop tasks, that are good tasks, that actually measure what we think they measure. When I think about it, I think the one common factor going through anything that I’ve ever tried to do, I would call and other people have called the “task...
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is the national professional, scientific, and credentialing association for 241,000 members, certificate holders, and affiliates who are audiologists; speech-language pathologists; speech, language, and hearing scientists; audiology and speech-language pathology assistants; and students.
The ASHA Teaching, Learning, and Research Hub is a repository of resources to support academic, clinical and research education in communication sciences and disorders (CSD).
