Abstract

To provide a basis for decisions regarding speech & language therapy, conversation analysis is used in a pre-therapy assessment of a conversation between an aphasic patient 14 months post-onset (aged 36 at onset) & her husband. The conversation, which was videotaped by Ss at home & at their convenience, reveals consistent patterns of other-repair in which S's phonemic output is corrected & subsequent turns, directed by her husband, focus on her correct production & lead repeatedly to expressions of distress. These repairs were selected as a focus for therapy, & a post-therapy conversation analysis shows no examples of phonological other-repair or practice sequences, despite S's production of numerous phonological errors.
