    Author: Königsbüscher S, Meyer-Königsbüscher J, Ostermann F.
    Journal: Rehabilitation (Stuttg); 1987 Aug; 26(3):115-8. PubMed ID: 2443951.
    Abstract:
    Theoretical considerations in, and an exemplary instance of, group speech therapy with aphasic patients are submitted for discussion. Contrary to current practice, individual and group therapy are considered of equal rank, as all aspects of speech and language can be realized in the latter, with both approaches having similar goals. Group work contents is characterized as verbal coping with guided verbal tasks. Group composition is recommended to emphasize speech and language criteria, as opposed to social and psychosocial criteria. Also dealt with is the position of the speech therapist.
