Bringing together the latest research from world-leading academics, this edited volume is an authoritative resource on the psycholinguistic study of language production, exploring longstanding concepts as well as contemporary and emerging theories.Hartsuiker and Strijkers affirm that although language production may seem like a mundane everyday activity, it is in fact a remarkable human accomplishment. This comprehensive text presents an up-to-date overview of the key topics in the field, providing important theoretical and empirical challenges to the traditional and accepted modal view of language production. Each chapter explores in detail a different aspect of language production, covering traditional methods including written and signed production alongside emerging research on joint action production. Emphasizing the neurobiological underpinnings of language, chapter authors showcase research that moves from a monologue-only approach to one that that considers production in more ecologically valid circumstances.Written in an accessible and compelling style, Language Production is essential reading for students and researchers of language production and psycholinguistics, as well as anyone who wishes to learn more about the fascinating topic of how humans produce language.

This voice-driven, narrative, non-fiction book relays the stories of seven courageous women whose lives have been greatly impacted by a loved one's stroke, resulting in loss of language ability to one degree or another. Aphasia leads to varying degrees of problems in speaking, understanding, reading, writing, gesturing, and using numbers. Aphasia can be extremely stressful for both the individual who had the stroke and for their family and friends. Speech is such a significant part of human interaction, and it's something that most people take for granted. It's hard to be able to communicate if you've been dependent upon verbal communication and yours is suddenly impaired. Fortunately, some recovery from aphasia is possible, and there are still ways to effectively communicate, even with aphasia.The stories contained in the book are intended to help others feel less alone as they navigate their loss and the confusing healthcare system. The stories are told from the advent of a stroke of their loved-ones and describe how these caretakers persevered to find quality medical services and to provide home care. Caring For a Loved One with Aphasia After Stroke is written for people who are going through a similar crisis, or for those in the medical and/or speech/language field who are interested to learn more about perseverance and hope that are critical to aphasia.

Lernen ist ein zentraler Aspekt von Behandlungen in der Medizin, Pflege und Therapie. Der systemisch-konstruktivistische Blick auf die Gestaltung von Lehr-/Lernsituationen im Rahmen des didaktischen Reasonings ermoglicht relevante Erkenntnisse fur die patienten- und teilhabeorientierte Gestaltung. Dieses essential stellt die Unterschiedlichkeit der Lehr-/Lernaktivitaten in sechs Handlungsebenen von drei Behandlungsphasen dar. Dabei bietet es eine Differenzierung zwischen bewusstem und unbewusstem didaktischen Reasoning sowie zwischen Tele- und Prasenzsetting. Zwei sprachtherapeutische Beispiele unterstutzen den Ubertrag in den eigenen beruflichen Alltag.  

TWELVE MOONS follows a year spent caught between the wild sea and the changing moon of the wide Northumberland skies.

Donkeys bring people together across borders. This book has been created through a collaboration of donkey therapy practitioners in Denmark and Italy. We have shared our knowledge and experience of how Animal Assisted Intervention can be used as a therapeutic method to help people. When people interact with donkeys, it creates well-being and joy. This interaction can assist in the development of learning and language in children, and presents new experiences. With this book we bring the reader into a world that is unknown to most people, and that has rarely been written about. We describe and analyze our practice with donkeys and humans. The authors, with their very different backgrounds and approaches to working with donkeys, contribute in their own way to the creation of this book.
