About this listen

In honor of National Aphasia Awareness Month, we’re diving into a practical and research-supported tool that every clinician should know about—the Quick Aphasia Battery (QAB). If you’ve ever felt a little rusty when it comes to aphasia evaluation and treatment, this episode is for you. We break down the research by Lucanie et al., explain how the QAB can save you time while giving you a multidimensional view of language function, and discuss how to use it for goal writing and bridging the gap between screening and full evaluation. Plus, we reflect on why accessible, efficient tools like the QAB are exactly what clinicians need in fast-paced environments. You’ll learn: What aphasia is and how it affects communication The 8 subtests included in the Quick Aphasia Battery (QAB) How to use QAB results for goal setting and clinical documentation Limitations and considerations when using the QAB Where to access the QAB materials and automated scoring spreadsheet Articles Cited: Lucanie, M. et al. A Quick Aphasia Battery for Efficient, Reliable, and Multidimensional Assessment of Language Function.⁠ Resources: ⁠Quick Aphasia Battery Test Forms⁠ ⁠Quick Aphasia Battery Scoring Get in Touch: hello@speechtalkpod.com Or Visit Us At: ⁠www.SpeechTalkPod.com⁠ Instagram: @speechtalkpod Part of the Human Content Podcast Network Learn more about your ad choices.
