Perspectives of Indian speech language pathologists towards assessing adolescents with language impairments.
Article in CoDAS, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposePerspective-based studies have been carried out on health professionals to create clinical implications that will positively impact the healthcare system. There are no such studies exploring the perspectives of Indian speech language pathologists (SLPs) towards handling adolescents with language impairments. Therefore, the current study aims to explore the perspectives of Indian SLPs on the assessment of adolescent language.
methodsThe study followed a cross-sectional study design following a non-random convenient sampling procedure. A total number of 102 SLPs participated in the study. Phase 1 comprised developing a questionnaire to identify the perspectives of SLPs towards the assessment of adolescents with language impairments. A total of 9 questions were formulated for the same. Phase 2 included the data collection which was conducted through an online survey. Phase 3 focused on the data analysis. Descriptive statistics were to determine the mean and SD for continuous variables, and frequency and percentage for discrete variables.
resultsThe current study results indicated significant disparities in the perspectives of SLPs towards adolescent language assessment. An overall level of poor awareness and a superficial understanding of the core area (about adolescence, and the areas and tools for assessment) was evident.
conclusionUnderstanding the perspectives of SLPs towards adolescent language assessment is critical in paving the way for future clinical development and research.
