@aphasiologist1 @CherneyLeora @clairefarring20 @alexander_leff @CrinionJenny ICAP terminology didn’t exist at the time (2009) but I was motivated to increase tx intensity/dose plus provide conversation/communication practice in group contexts; to incorporate all WHO-ICF domains. Patients liked the idea of short duration hard work

[Dr. Cathy Off @catherineoff]

Yep.

[Dr. Nidhi Mahendra @NidhiMahendra]
