The Video Head Impulse Test (vHIT) is a diagnostic tool used to assess the function of the balance system, specifically the semicircular canals (SCC) and vestibular-ocular reflex (VOR). This live webinar (May 22, 2025, 1-2 p.m. ET) will review the anatomy and physiology of these systems, how the vHIT provides ear-specific data for each SCC, and how the vHIT can help diagnose vestibular hypofunction. The presentation will focus on testing pediatric patients, including test modifications and interpretation considerations.

SIG Perspectives
The purpose of this SIG 1 forum is to provide clinicians with specific steps that
they can take to promote social justice within the field of speech-language pathology by
exploring cultural flexibility and applying principles of culturally-responsive practice to the
selection of assessment and intervention materials. In the first article, the “culture flex” is
introduced as a mindset shift to enable clinicians to center culture, engage in selfreflection,
and become empowered to enact social justice. The second article leads the
reader in identifying less biased early language assessments for young preterm Black
children. In the third article, the authors provide a tutorial for evaluating ideologies of
“good” languaging in children’s books, and they discuss how to have conversations
about these ideologies in ways that promote justice and lead to humanizing and
affirming learning spaces for children.

Clinical care in the intensive care unit (ICU) is exceptionally dynamic; patients may present differently day to day, or even hour by hour, and so their lab values and medication needs may fluctuate often. SLPs need to remain extraordinarily aware of changes in these lab values and medications to inform their ongoing assessment and treatment. This course examines classes of medications and lab values, their effects on a patient's presentation, and how they may influence SLP assessment and treatment as well as interprofessional decision-making.

Each adult with dysphagia presents with unique characteristics, each setting provides different challenges, and each treatment team functions in different ways. Therefore, in addition to possessing core knowledge, SLPs need to consider all related factors and apply critical-thinking skills to meet the needs of each patient. In this course, you'll learn to consider these factors through collaboration with the patient, family, and other team members, and enhance communication and documentation of your recommendations.

colleagues in related fields. The first article describes the similarities and differences
between how teachers and speech-language pathologists think about and employ gamebased
learning by conducting both a literature review and a qualitative review of focus
groups. The second article examines teacher communication during shared bookreading
activities to understand what specific strategies teachers are using when
children with developmental disabilities are included. The third article demonstrates the
benefits of professional collaborations when attempting to support the learning of African
refugee students in preschool through high school. The final article highlights best

This SIG 1 activity addresses social justice issues facing children from cognitive and
linguistically diverse backgrounds. The first article provides a foundational understanding
of translanguaging in order to expand and broaden our definition of multilingualism and
reframe how we think about Black Language in schools. The second article investigates
the conversational language profile of children in low socioeconomic environments and
analyzes how results may vary by dimensions of language (i.e., vocabulary, grammar)
and socioeconomic environment (e.g., maternal education, income). The third article
explores how school-based speech-language pathologists describe their therapeutic
relationships with culturally and linguistically diverse students. The last article challenges
clinicians and educators to push past the deficit perspective toward multimodal
communication and apply educational justice and equity practices with modally
marginalized individuals.

and treatment of individuals with neurogenic communication disorders. The first
article discusses target selection for the assessment and treatment of discourse
in people with aphasia, emphasizing the need for alignment with the person’s
discourse goals. Then, the second article explores sources of bias in the
assessment of Black athletes with sports-related concussion, as well as culturally
responsive practices that can mitigate the negative impact of such bias. Finally,
the third article is a case study of a person with foreign, or nonnative, accent
syndrome. Assessment and behavioral intervention targets that led to his
successful diagnosis and treatment are discussed.

Adults who stutter (AWS) are a heterogeneous group in terms of lived experiences and
expectations for treatment. In this SIG 4 activity, learners will read three peer-reviewed
articles that focus on individual experiences of AWS that may lead to individual
preferences in treatment approaches. The first article examines correlations between
stuttering severity and measures of life satisfaction, self-acceptance, self-compassion,
and avoidance among AWS, comparing those who sought support from family, friends,
or the National Stuttering Association to those who did not. The second article focuses
on treatment preferences and reports on a multinational survey study investigating what
AWS consider important aspects of stuttering treatment. The results indicate that, while
most AWS value help with speech strategies and anxiety, there is significant individual
variation in treatment preferences based on factors like gender and geographical region.
Finally, the last article centers on the perceived positive experiences and benefits of
stuttering reported by 77 AWS. The analysis reveals four major themes: development of
skills, qualities, and talents; personal development; coping strategies; and support from
others, highlighting various ways that individuals have found positive meaning in their
stuttering experiences.

This SIG 1 forum addresses how the speech-language pathologist can target
metacognition using theory of mind, critical thinking, and prosody to improve the
comprehension of oral and written information in both social and academic
environments for school age students and adolescents. The first article describes
the results of an exploratory survey given to speech-language pathologists
regarding how they incorporate theory of mind into therapy. The second article
explores how to target the critical thinking skills of adolescents using logical
fallacies. The third article reviews the current available literature on prosody and
reading for autistic individuals and provides clinical recommendations for
addressing prosody in expressive communication and reading comprehension.
