Overview
A participant with chronic nonfluent aphasia learned to use a high-tech Visual Scene Display (VSD) application installed on an iPad to improve the quality of his storytelling conversations with unfamiliar partners. The findings suggest that it is possible to teach a person with aphasia to use a VSD to support storytelling conversations. -- Abstract.
