Adaptive Trial Scheduling in Naming Treatment for Aphasia

Integrating Complementary Learning Principles in Aphasia Rehabilitation Via Adaptive Modeling (Sub-study 2: Adaptive Trial Scheduling)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 Dec 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Aphasia is a language disorder caused by stroke and other acquired brain injuries that affects over two million people in the United States and which interferes with life participation and quality of life. Anomia (i.e., word- finding difficulty) is a primary frustration for people with aphasia. Picture-based naming treatments for anomia are widely used in aphasia rehabilitation, but current treatment approaches do not address the long-term retention of naming abilities and do not focus on using these naming abilities in daily life. The current research aims to evaluate novel anomia treatment approaches to improve long-term retention and generalization to everyday life. This study is one of two that are part of a larger grant. This record is for sub-study 2, which will evaluate the benefits of adaptive trial spacing.
