VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
PARTCIPATE IN FREE SPEECH/LANGUAGE THERAPY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN
If you have had a stroke and have difficulty with any of the following:
- Understanding what people say
- Communicating effectively with family and friends
- Finding words at times
- Reading and writing words
- Remembering events and details
Please call the Aphasia Research Laboratory at (512) 232-3440 or (512)- 471-2035
We are conducting experiments to improve communication abilities in individuals who have had a stroke through speech/language therapy. We are looking for individuals who may be interested in receiving therapy free of charge.
At the Aphasia Research Laboratory, we are conducting numerous experiments to determine the effectiveness of language treatment in individuals with word finding, sentence formulation, and sentence comprehension, reading, writing, and memory problems.
Prior to initiation of the experiment, your language abilities following the stroke will be assessed through standardized language tests. Following that, you will receive speech/language therapy to improve your communication abilities. The duration of therapy can range from 2 - 7 months at no cost to you. Throughout the therapy, you will be provided with feedback on your progress.
Even if you have previously received speech therapy, you are eligible to participate in these experiments.
