Outcomes of an App-Based Intervention to Target Naming Among Individuals With Poststroke Aphasia: Virtual Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

People with aphasia present with language and communication deficits, most notably in lexical retrieval (naming). Although positive outcomes in naming have been observed following speech-language treatment, many individuals with aphasia continue to face impairments after the acute phase of rehabilitation.

Objective

VoiceAdapt is a mobile therapy app addressing naming impairments, designed within a user-centered design framework. The Voic
