October 24, 2019 Categories: Community, Health Sciences, News Release
The Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at East Stroudsburg University is seeking participants for a research study on the impact of concussion on word-finding ability.
We are seeking participants with and without a history of concussion. Participants must be between 18-24 years old and may not have a history of speech and language therapy, a history of learning disabilities, unaided hearing loss, or uncorrected vision.
Volunteers will be asked to complete a survey, participate in a hearing screening and assessment regarding word-finding ability.
The research study will help further understanding of the effects of one or more concussions on word-finding ability and will involve one 45-minute session at the Speech and Hearing Center located in Monroe Hall on the campus of ESU.
For more information about this study, or to volunteer as a participant, please contact LuAnn Batson Magnuson, Ph.D., associate professor of communication sciences and disorders at 570-422-3311 or lmagnuson@esu.edu, or Lori DeFazio at 570-905-7617 or ldefazio@live.esu.edu.
