A. There is not a normal distribution of the data.
Key word - nonparametric stats - used when there is not a normal distribution of the data
C and D are not applicable - A speech scientist is analyzing data collected from a recently
completed study. In order to properly analyze the data, she utilizes nonparametric statistical
procedures. Which of the following scenarios BEST describes the scientist's data?
A. There is not a normal distribution of the data.
B. There is a normal distribution of the data.
C. There is a small median for the data.
D. There is a small mode for the data.
D. Interdisciplinary
Transdisciplinary has one lead, but everyone is there (similar to early on) and multidisciplinary
has shared goals. - A patient in a hospital is being seen by multiple professionals, with
each professional providing independent assessment and intervention. After each professional
has completed initial assessment, each collaborates about the patient's treatment plan and
shares information regarding the patient's status for each discipline. Which service delivery
model is being utilized in the care of this patient?
A. Unidisciplinary.
B. Transdisciplinary.
C. Multidisciplinary.
D. Interdisciplinary.
, B. Discuss discharge with their patient prior to terminating services.
SLPas cannot do evaluations. Patients have to be part of the decision to be discharged so can't
leave a note. Also, may decide they are ready to go home early if you discuss discharge early. -
A speech-language pathologist (SLP) has been asked to evaluate a new patient in an acute
care hospital, after which point the SLP will provide treatment for this patient. The SLP currently
has a full caseload, but was planning on discharging one of the patients the following day. How
should this SLP proceed in order to better manage the caseload?
A. Discharge the patient early, and send written notice.
B. Discuss discharge with their patient prior to terminating services.
C. Evaluate the new patient and begin providing intervention.
D. Have the department speech-language pathologist assistant (SLPA) proceed with the
evaluation.
C. Mixed experimental-descriptive research.
AKA quasi experimental - need to have a comparison group (dyslexia and non-dyslexia) -
inherent difference makes it a non-experimental study??????
not B bc indpepenent variable is active (rapidly vs slowly) - A researcher is conducting a
study comparing the performance of dyslexic versus nondyslexic participants during oral
reading of written words presented rapidly versus slowly. This is an example of:
A. Experimental research.
B. Descriptive research.
C. Mixed experimental-descriptive research.
D. Qualitative research.
