Objective
The Shirley Ryan AbilityLab is conducting a research study on tongue movement to develop new diagnostic and rehabilitation methods. Participants will wear a smart mouth retainer and use their tongue to move a cursor on a computer monitor.
The cursor movements will be representing tongue movements.
Help advance our knowledge on tongue movement to design new diagnostic and rehabilitation methods.
Who Can Participate
Participants must meet the following criteria:
- A diagnosis of dysarthria or apraxia of speech and/or limited mobility of the tongue muscle
- No decisional impairments or oral cavity health-related concerns
- Capability to perform research task and tongue movements for at least 1 hr.
Compensation
Participants will not receive financial compensation or parking/transpiration reimbursement.
