[CAS -- R013] 2019 Joint Conference of SPA and NZSTA highlights

The 2019 Joint Conference of Speech Pathology Australia (SPA) and the New Zealand Speech-Language Therapists’ Association (NZSTA) was held in Brisbane these days. I was trying to read the conference threads on Twitter. This is really exciting that there are many people working on CAS. I summarized the information for you.

1. Catherine Barrett presented about transcribing connected speech and the development of Connected Speech Transcription Protocol (CoST-P). Data from 12 Children with CAS (6;0 - 12;9) was collected by Park Play and analyzed. Children with CAS - had irregular lexical stress and poor juncture in connected speech, - had greater accuracy of stressed vs unstressed syllable - may have avoided producing polysyllables in the sample 2. Dr. Elizabeth Murray presented the systematic review of diagnosing CAS versus other speech sounds disorders - 12 evidence-based clinical measures that are useful for differential diagnosis of CAS from other types of speech sound disorders. 3. Dr. Elizabeth Murray presented about the reliability of the expert judgment for diagnosing CAS - There are problems with expert diagnosis: based on perceptual judgment, no standardized definitions of features, no specific assessment tasks and no operational cut-offs for diagnosis - Moderate agreement using a rating tool was obtained 4. Professor Susan Rvachew analyzed the SRT data from Shriberg and colleagues and found that children with CAS produced more than 4 errors of adding nasal sounds in the SRT tasks. This may imply a diagnostic tool. 5. Maryane Gomez compared the management of CAS internationally. But there is not much information on twitter.
