Download or read book Understanding Everyday Communicative Interactions written by Julie A. Hengst and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding Everyday Communicative Interactions is a unique text that uses a situated discourse analysis (SDA) framework to examine basic human communication and the interactions of those with communicative disorders in everyday and clinical settings. The book introduces SDA as a theoretical and empirical approach for examining the complexities of communicative interaction. It explores how people collaborate in everyday contexts to communicate successfully and how they learn to do so. From close analysis of a pretend game played by two children and their father to an observation of a man with aphasia and his family at a football match, the present volume offers rich portraits of communicative lives and illustrates the applications of SDA. The final part of the book uses SDA methods to demonstrate how clinicians can function as communication partners even during assessments and can design rich communicative environments for therapeutic interventions. In explaining the SDA framework and equipping readers with the tools to understand the nature of human communication, this sophisticated and engaging book will be an essential reference for students, researchers, and clinicians in communication sciences and disorders.

Download or read book Therapeutic Processes for Communication Disorders written by Robert J. Fourie and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2010-11-25 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do many people with disorders of communication experience a sense of demoralization? Do these subjective experiences have any bearing on how such problems should be treated? How can professionals dealing with speech, language, hearing and other communication disorders analyse and respond to the subjective and relational needs of clients with such problems? In this book, authors in the fields of communication disorders analyse the psychological, social and linguistic processes and interactions that underpin clinical practice, from both client and clinician perspectives. The chapters demonstrate how it is possible to analyze and understand client-clinician discourse using qualitative research, and describe various challenges to establishing relationships such as cultural, gender and age differences. The authors go on to describe self-care processes, the therapeutic use of the self, and various psychological factors that could be important for developing therapeutic relationships. Also covered are the rarely considered topics of spirituality and transpersonal issues, which may at times be relevant to clinicians working with clients who have debilitating, degenerative and terminal illnesses associated with certain communication disorders. While this book is geared toward the needs of practicing and training speech, language and hearing clinicians, other professional such as teachers of the deaf, psychotherapists, nurses, and occupational therapists will find the ideas relevant, interesting and easily translatable for use in their own clinical practice.

Download or read book An Advanced Course in Communication Sciences and Disorders written by Dennis C. Tanner and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Foreword by Sadanand Singh, Ph.D. An Advanced Course in Communication Sciences and Disorders, Dennis C. Tanner's latest book, is a major and unique contribution to the speech and hearing literature. Written in a narrative and academic style, this book explores the field of communication sciences and disorders with a compelling plot and a happy ending. Intriguing, fascinating, but never failing to embrace the facts, the book is filled with relevant information on both normal and disordered communication. Tanner has woven the facts into a tapestry of color and style that he calls the unified model, allowing readers to see everything important about normal and disordered communication in one place. What I admire about Dr. Tanner is that he explores fully the connections among all aspects of normal human communication, and the impact on the individual, family, caregiver, and the society when this connection is lost. This book is so essential to making these connections that students should read it twice; once upon embarking on their studies in the field of communication sciences and disorders, and again when nearing completion of their academic and clinical educations. The first reading of the book will undoubtedly whet their academic appetites, increase their curiosity, challenge intellectual acumen, and bring them to the decision that they need to explore this field further. The final reading will allow them to become the best consumer of all the academic and clinical knowledge and experiences they have assembled in the field of communication sciences and disorders.
