LUNA survey findings of UK speech and language therapists’ discourse practices now published

The LUNA team want to say a BIG thank you. A thank you to the 269 speech and language therapists out there across the UK who started our LUNA survey in August 2018, and a thank you to the 211 therapists who made it through to the end of the survey and submitted their responses. You all made this research. We’re extremely chuffed about what we’ve found in discourse analysis practices of therapists in the UK, and now delighted we can share the paper with everyone. It’s available on the International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders website here, and also freely available at City’s OpenAccess website here. We encourage clinicians to download the paper from the IJLCD website, and don’t miss the supplemental file too as this contains detailed information on the kinds of discourse behaviours people are analysing, and how confident (and not) people feel about analysing these aspects of language and discourse from clients with aphasia. Last but by no means least, a thank you too to The Stroke Association for funding LUNA.
