PhD meeting in Ireland
While in Dublin, I was able to meet with Anniek van
Doornik-van der Zee and Professor Ellen Gerrits from the University of Utrecht,
The Netherlands. We are co-supervising Anniek’s PhD titled SpraakProductiestoornissen En de Ernst
van de Communicatieve Handicap (Speech production disorders and severity of the communicative
handicap). Anneik is planning to use the Intelligibility in Context Scale in her research
and shared with me a language screening test that is commonly used in The
Netherlands: http://kindentaal.logopedie.nl/site/sneltest
