... procedures were used to develop and validate the MPEAS, including the items generation phase, pilot study, validation, and reliability testing. Results: MPEAS demonstrated excellent validity (face, content, discriminant, predictive, and convergent) and reliability. Conclusion: MPEAS is a valid, reliable...

.... The goal of this study was to translate the Palin PRS into Persian and to evaluate its validity and reliability for application in preschool children who stutter. Methods: This research was conducted from August 2021 to December 2022, involving 139 parents of children who stutter. The parents completed...

..., their reliability among novice clinicians is unknown. Therefore, the primary aim of this study was to characterize the reliability of auditory-perceptual assessments of cough among a group of novice clinicians. As a secondary aim, we assessed the effects of a standardized training protocol on the reliability...

... time after a 2-weeks period to evaluate test-retest reliability. Content validity (content validity index and content validity ratio), internal consistency (Cronbach α coefficient), test-retest reliability (intraclass correlations), and construct validity (confirmatory factor analysis) were examined...

.... Translations, linguistic adaptations, and psychometric and norming data for ICS have been achieved in different languages. Objective: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the ICS (ICS-I) in terms of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, criterion validity (correlation...

...Miriam Seifert; Lydia Morgan; Sarah Gibbin; Yvonne Wren Aim: To explore a novel and efficient way of calculating transcription reliability of connected speech data using the concept of near functional equivalence. Using this approach, differences between two transcribed phonemes that are nearly...

... disorders. It is well-recognized that cleft speech is complex, consisting of several interacting parameters assessed simultaneously, with error sounds not in the listener’s own language. In speech outcome studies, narrow phonetic transcription and the reporting of intra- and inter-rater reliability...

... this impact is a challenge for clinicians and researchers. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the European Portuguese version of the Quality of Life in the Speaker with Dysarthria (QoL-DyS). Methods: This research was conducted in three phases: (i) cultural...

...: To investigate the inter rater reliability of the SToPS when analyzing alaryngeal voice. Methods: Prospective evaluation of inter rater reliability of the SToPS based on audio recordings of 230 voice samples from 41 laryngectomy patients rated by 3 experts. Interval data were analyzed using intraclass...

... in this study. Reliability and validity (sensitivity and specificity) data were obtained and analysed. Results: Content validity, analysed by an expert panel (general practitioner, kindergarten, teacher, nurse, and speech and language pathologist) revealed that the items were representative and relevant...

...Valentina Piacentini; Annalisa Zuin; Davide Cattaneo; Antonio Schindler Objective: To develop a tool to measure quality of life (QOL) in the dysarthric speaker (QOL-DyS). Patients and Method: The study consisted of two phases: scale development and item reduction (phase 1), and reliability...

...Yu-Tsai Wang; Ray D. Kent; Joseph R. Duffy; Jack E. Thomas Aims: The Diadochokinetic Rate Analysis (DRA) in the KayPENTAX Motor Speech Profile is a computer program for the analysis of diadochokinesis (DDK). The objective of this study is to evaluate the suitability, reliability, and concurrent...

... intervention targets. The main purpose of this study was to investigate whether a segmental analysis based on a perceptual phoneme intelligibility assessment is reliable and can be used for target selection. Secondly, the hypothesis that the degree of agreement for phoneme identification may depend...
