This study aims to create a resource library containing audiovisual recordings of connected speech samples from individuals with aphasia, along with consensus ratings of APROCSA features, to provide a useful tool for researchers, clinicians, and students to learn how to evaluate aphasic speech with an auditory-perceptual approach.
Auditory-perceptual rating of connected speech in aphasia (APROCSA) is a system in which trained listeners rate a variety of perceptual features of connected speech samples, representing the disruptions and abnormalities that commonly occur in aphasia. APROCSA has shown promise as an approach for quantifying expressive speech and language function in individuals with aphasia. The aim of this study was to acquire and share a set of audiovisual recordings of connected speech samples from a diverse group of individuals with aphasia, along with consensus ratings of APROCSA features, for future use as training materials to teach others how to use the APROCSA system. Connected speech samples were obtained from six individuals with chronic post-stroke aphasia. The first five minutes of participant speech were excerpted from each sample, and five researchers independently evaluated each sample using APROCSA, rating its 27 features on a five-point scale. The researchers then discussed each feature in turn to obtain consensus ratings. The dataset will provide a useful, freely accessible resource for researchers, clinicians, and students to learn how to evaluate aphasic speech with an auditory-perceptual approach.
