Patterns of Speech
Revisions in Bilingual
Adults & Children

Connie Summers, U of Texas at El
Paso; Casey Taliancich-Klinger,
Our Lady of the Lake U; Melissa
Silver, Illinois; Jessica Valles, Sierra
Providence Med Ctr

Speech revisions are present in the speech of both
children and adults but may be more frequent in bilinguals.
Speech revisions were examined in the narratives of
bilingual children and adults. Bilingual children produced
more speech revisions in Spanish than in English. Children
with language impairment had more filled pauses than
their typically developing peers. Bilingual adults produced
more speech revisions in their non-dominant language.

The Principles of
Culturally
Competent Practice
for Speech-Language
Pathologists

Sarah Verdon, Charles Sturt U;
Sharynne McLeod, Charles Sturt U;
Sandie Wong, Charles Sturt U

To effectively support the communication of people
from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds,
speech-language pathologists need to engage in culturally
competent practice. This presentation introduces the six
Principles of Culturally Competent Practice for speechlanguage pathologists (Verdon, 2015). The Principles
were developed through international research in 14
sites on 4 continents. This presentation will explain each
of the Principles and provide practical examples of their
application in daily practice to enhance professionals'
cultural competence.

Interprofessional
Education: From
University Clinic to
Community Partner

Marie Kerins, Loyola U

There is no right or wrong way to introduce students to
interprofessional education. After two summers at a
university clinic, a literacy program for 4-7 year olds, went
on the road to an urban charter school. Graduate students
in speech-language pathology and reading specialists
work to sharpen their understanding of each other
professionally, working toward a shared goal of improving
student outcomes. Pros and cons of working with a
community partner will be explored.

The purpose of this study was to examine the current state
of interprofessional graduate training programs between
speech-language pathology and early intervention/ early
childhood special education. A survey was sent to speechlanguage pathology graduate program directors. Findings
indicated that there is a wide range of
interprofessional graduate training across universities.

Parents' Experience of
Diagnostic Assessment
for Their Child with
Autism Spectrum
Disorder

Wendy Krueger, Marquette U;
Norah Johnson, Marquette U;
Elizabeth Jilek, Marquette U; Kendra
Hilgemann, Marquette U; Kristin
Haglund, Marquette U

This study examined the diagnostic experience of the
parents of children with autism spectrum disorders.
Parents were interviewed and qualitative analysis of
their responses conducted to identify common themes.
Results suggest that the timing, content, and manner of
communication between professionals and parents
significantly influenced parents' perceptions of the process.
Sources of parent satisfaction and dissatisfaction will be
discussed and factors to facilitate shared decision-making
during the diagnostic process will be suggested.

Interprofessional
Approaches to
Supporting Clients
with SocialCommunication
Challenges: SLP & OT
Collaborative Practice

Emily Lakey, Appalachian St U;
David Turnbull, U of Southern
California

This session describes an interprofessional approach to
supports and services for clients with social-communication
challenges. Professional practice guidelines in speechlanguage pathology and occupational therapy will be
discussed with strategies for interprofessional collaboration
and teaming. This session will highlight the utility of
activity-based instruction as an effective evidence-based
practice appropriate for interprofessional practice and
describe the Interprofessional Education Collaborative
(IPEC) competencies for interprofessional education and
practice. Clinical implications will be described.

Learning the
Language of Math:
A Pilot Study

Robyn Ziolkowski, U of Northern
Colorado; Julie Hanks, U of Northern
Colorado; Christen Ayers, U of
Northern Colorado; Leslee Smith,
U of Northern Colorado; Lauren
Jacobsen, U of Northern Colorado

This pilot was conducted to examine the effectiveness of
an academic mathematics vocabulary/concept intervention
in a listening center format with K-2nd grade participants
at risk for language and learning impairments and with
children with typical language. The selection of vocabulary
and research-based teaching procedures will be described.
Findings will illustrate how to assess curriculum-based
vocabulary learning. Evidence provides initial support for
this promising approach to enhancing disciplinary literacy
in students at risk for disabilities.
