- W582175645 abstract "SYNTACTIC COMPLEXITY IN PERSONS WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS Katherine Alma King Department of Communication Disorders Master of Science Several studies using standardized tests have provided evidence for the presence of language disorders in persons with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and have suggested that persons with MS may have language that is less complex. One aspect not thoroughly studied is that of syntactic complexity in naturalistic, conversational settings. The present study collected language samples from 10 adults with MS and 10 age-matched controls and compared scores on five quantitative measures derived from those samples. No significant differences were found between groups on any measure. This finding suggests that in mild cases of MS or during periods of remission, individuals may retain their ability to use complex language structures in naturalistic discourse. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many sources contributed to the completion of this thesis. This work was part of a larger study carried out by my fellow researcher Kristi Hollis. Kristi, you have been a pleasure to work with. I’ve appreciated your wisdom and experience, humor and down to earth character. Thank you so much to my outstanding thesis committee. Dr. Channell, you have made a daunting task accomplishable through your accessibility, patience, guidance, and encouragement. Thanks you for your tirelessness in answering questions, responding to emails, and editing drafts. I couldn’t have asked for a better mentor. Dr. Nissen, thank you for your flexibility and support. You have increased my appreciation for the importance of collaboration. Dr. Dromey, you have increased my appetite for knowledge and learning. You have instilled in me the importance of a rationale. I would like to thank countless friends and family, who willingly participated in this study in one form or another. I thank my colleagues. What an amazing group of women I have been enlightened and inspired by. Women I have laughed with, cried with, and eaten chocolate with. These are friends for life. Lastly, I would like to thank my family for their tireless inquisitions regarding when I would complete this thesis. I especially thank my mother, for picking up the phone in the middle of the night time and again to help me get through tears and fears as I submitted draft after draft. She has been a great support to me and has given countless time and prayers to this cause." @default.
