Area of Science:

  • Speech and Language Pathology
  • Biostatistics
  • Longitudinal Data Analysis

Background:

  • Longitudinal outcome data analysis is crucial for evaluating therapeutic efficacy and developmental models in speech and language research.
  • Traditional statistical methods for longitudinal speech and language data present significant challenges.
  • Existing speech and language research has not widely adopted advanced statistical techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce survival analysis as a powerful statistical method for speech and language research.
  • Demonstrate the application of nonparametric and semiparametric survival analysis using speech outcomes.
  • Highlight the advantages of survival analysis in handling longitudinal data and providing individual probabilities.

Main Methods:
