Educational Support Group Program for Bilingual and Spanish-speaking Carepartners and People With Progressive Aphasia (NCT06511752)
Educational Support Group Program for Carepartners of Bilingual and Spanish-speaking Persons With Progressive Forms of Aphasia and for Persons With Progressive Forms of Aphasia
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The current study aims to examine the benefits of an education/support group program for individuals with progressive aphasia (caused by various etiologies, diagnoses) and their carepartners. The current study utilizes pre-, post-treatment, and follow-up assessments to measure effects of a psychoeducational support group and an implementation/communication skills training phase on measures of psychosocial function, communicative effectiveness and speech/language function. Analysis of study-specific surveys and semi-structured interviews will provide qualitative data regarding outcomes. Before beginning the education and support group, focus groups will be run in order to set priorities for the themes to be included in the education program. Participants will join via tele-based means if preferred and these participants may reside in the United States, or internationally including Mexico and Spain.
