A phone/tablet based app which targets issues with single word reading associated with alexia & aphasia
Written and spoken words as well as pictures are used to re-build associations between semantics, orthographics and phonology
600 stimuli items are provided and up to 30 'trials'
Initially, the user is required to complete a test of reactions, vision, reading, spelling and writing. They then do 'look & listen' exercises to familiarise themselves with the target words. There are then 'trials' using auditory to written word matching with pictorial support. The initial tests are time consuming but can be paused
Familiarisation tasks and trials are automatically created based on performance and change according to progress made
Audio and visual, on-screen aphasia guides are provided to guide the user through how the app works
Results are recorded and include training time taken, reading accuracy and reading speed
App for practising reading single words
