The Influence of Language Phenotype on Predictors of Emergent Literacy in Children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder
(East Carolina University, 2018-05-01)The development of emergent literacy skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is a growing subject of inquiry in the field of communication sciences and disorders; however, few studies have investigated the ... -
The Influence of Orthodontic Appliances on Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Velopharynx
(East Carolina University, 2022-12-08)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is becoming increasingly valuable among cleft palate craniofacial teams in patients with velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI). One hindrance to the growing use of MRI among the cleft population ... -

Treating problem solving deficits in traumatic brain injury
(East Carolina University, 2014)Cognitive deficits following TBI are multidimensional. Current treatment programs approach problem solving training in a top-down approach with problem solving skill perceived independent of attentional control and working ... -
Unilateral Auditory Temporal Resolution Deficit: A Case Study
(East Carolina University, 1999)An adult with a unilateral precipitous severe high-frequency hearing loss displayed a selective auditory temporal resolution deficit in the poorer ear despite excellent word recognition ability in quiet bilaterally. Word ... -
Use of Oral Language General Outcome Measures to Describe Children According to Language Status
(East Carolina University, 2011)The purpose of the study was to determine if short language samples can effectively distinguish children with language impairments from those who are typically developing. Four elicitation methods (individual picture ... -
Variations in Craniofacial and Velopharyngeal Structures Among Individuals with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-25)22q11.2 deletion syndrome is the most common genetic cause of velopharyngeal dysfunction. Studies examining 22q11.2 deletion syndrome have thus far primarily focused on variations in the bony framework. Limited information ... -
Variations in velopharyngeal structure and function in adults with normal and cleft anatomy.
(East Carolina University, 2015)Examination of velopharyngeal (VP) muscle differences among adults with cleft palate is limited. Dynamic assessment of the VP muscles have predominantly been during rest or sustained phonation. The purpose of this study ... -
Velopharyngeal Muscle Morphology in Children with Congenital Palatal Microforms
(East Carolina University, 2016-12-15)Children born with palatal microforms are often clinically mismanaged due to difficulties in diagnosis and treatment. These difficulties are exacerbated by anatomical and physiological differences in clinical presentation. ... -
Vestibular function following blast injury
(East Carolina University, 2011)To date, the war on terror has produced over 30,000 wounded military personnel with a large proportions of injuries attributed to blasts. Dizziness and imbalance are common complaints among the blast-injured population. ...
