Psychological Stress and Language Processing: Essential Insights for Practitioners

Psychological Stress and Language Processing: Essential Insights for Practitioners

In the realm of speech-language pathology, understanding the intricate relationship between psychological stress and language processing is crucial. The research article "Psychological Stress and Language Processing in School-Aged Children / Le stress psychologique et le traitement du langage chez les enfants d'ge scolaire" by Jason Peter Sirianni offers valuable insights that can enhance a practitioner's approach to therapy.
