Computer-assisted challenge point intervention for residual speech errors.
Article in Perspectives of the ASHA special interest groups, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Purpose: This preliminary case series investigated the effects of biofeedback intervention for residual rhotic errors delivered within a modified challenge point framework. In the challenge point framework, practice difficulty is adaptively adjusted with the goal of enhancing generalization learning. This study more specifically evaluated the feasibility of a computer-mediated implementation of challenge point treatment for rhotic errors using a custom open-source software, the Method: Participants were five native English speakers, ages 7;3-15;5, who had established but not generalized correct rhotic production in previous treatment; overall treatment duration was flexible. Treatment incorporated either electropalatographic or visual-acoustic biofeedback and was structured by challenge point principles implemented using the Results: Participants were highly variable in the magnitude of generalization gains attained. However, the median overall effect size was 4.24, suggesting that participants' response in treatment tended to exceed the minimum value considered clinically significant. Conclusions: These findings provide preliminary evidence that computer-mediated implementation of the challenge point framework can be effective in producing generalization in some participants.
