About

Twenty-one individuals with aphasia, five of whom were tested longitudinally, completed the Aphasia Bank protocol and the Quick Aphasia Battery. We then derived consensus ratings of connected speech features using the APROCSA system (Casilio et al., 2019).

For more information about the APROCSA consensus rating procedure we developed (as described in Ezzes et al., 2022), please see:

A demographic spreadsheet is included in the Downloadable transcripts folder. It has a README page explaining the information in the demographics tab and the APROCSA tab. Two columns in the demographics tab provide scores indicating evidence for (presence/absence) and severity of apraxia and dysarthria based on the QAB. These participants had apraxia of speech and/or dysarthria:
