Abstract: Experiment I -SWCA Following an intensive (2 hours/day, 5 days/week for 3/weeks) single word comprehension intervention protocol: Research question 1.Will the average percentage accuracy on single word comprehension tasks improve?Research hypothesis 1.The average percentage accuracy on single word comprehension tasks will improve.Research question 2. Will the average number of self-initiated requests for repetition cues increase?Intensive Auditory Comprehension Treatment 26 Research hypothesis 2. The average number of self-initiated requests for repetition cues will increase.Research question 3. Will the average number of self-initiated requests for lip-reading cues increase?Research hypothesis 3. The average number of self-initiated requests for lipreading cues will increase.Research question 4. Will the average number of correct responses on single word comprehension tasks increase following repetition cues?Research hypothesis 4. The average number of correct responses on single word comprehension tasks will increase following repetition cues.Research question 5: Will the average number of correct responses on single word comprehension tasks increase following lip-reading cues?Research hypothesis 5: The average number of correct responses on single word comprehension tasks will increase following lip-reading cues.Research question 6.Will the average number of correct single word naming responses increase?Research hypothesis 6.The average number of correct single word naming responses will increase.Research question 7. Will the number of correct narrative utterances increase during picture description tasks?Research hypothesis 7. The number of correct narrative utterance will increase during picture description tasks.Research question 8. Will participants demonstrate generalization of comprehension skills and/or independent use of compensatory strategies as documented via the Communicative Effectiveness Index (Lomas et al., 1989)?Research hypothesis 8. Participants will demonstrate generalization of comprehension skills and/or independent use of strategies as documented via the Communicative Effectiveness Index (Lomas et al., 1989)?Research Questions and Research Hypotheses: Experiment II -SPA Following an intensive (2 hours/day, 5 days/week for 3/weeks) single word comprehension intervention protocol: Research question 1.Will the average percentage accuracy on speech perception tasks improve?Research hypothesis 1.The average percentage accuracy on speech perception tasks will improve.Research question 2.
