Abstract(s)
People with aphasia present with different of demographic, language, stroke, and impairment profiles. A Cochrane review found that two-thirds of included trials had comparison data on participants at baseline (Brady, Kelly, Godwin, Enderby, & Campbell, 2016). Participant selection may have a considerable impact on the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions (Hallowell, 2008) while participant description is vital to interpretate the clinical relevance to patient subgroup (external validity). Inadequate description of aphasia research participants has been highlighted (Brady et al., 2016; Brookshire, 1983; Roberts, Code, & McNeil, 2003) as have data collection recommendations and reporting in prospective aphasia research studies.
