Research from a range of professions and educational establishments in the communication sciences and disorders across the USA has clearly indicated the shortcomings and fallibilities of students and clinicians in their ability to write formally, correctly, and clearly. Whether medical reports, chart notes, or diagnostic evaluations--even a piece written for an oral presentation--much of what you write can become a legal document that may be used in court. Furthermore, if documentation is incomplete or incorrect, then third party payers, such as insurance companies, may withhold payment.  This book helps you to understand what to do, what not to do, what to avoid, and how to address various writing problems encountered. It aims to show that learning to be a better professional writer does not have to be drudgery, and uses humor and anecdotal material, plus self-test questions to help illustrate issues under discussion.  The authors commence with coverage of aspects of language from punctuation, through abbreviations, to cultural issues, going on, in a chapter on evidence-based writing, to provide strategies to answer the why? (rather than just the what? and the how?) questions about professional writing. A review of the ASHA Code of Ethics precedes the important issue of uses and abuses of the Internet resources, as well as library resources, from collections to copyright and plagiarism.  Comprehensive coverage is given to the diagnostic report, in which the authors specify and describe five rules for diagnosis, continuing with guidelines for writing diagnostic reports in speech-language pathology and audiology that include specific instructions and examples for diagnostic protocols and report formats. Coverage of clinical reports and referrals includes templates and samples of a treatment plan, progress report, and chart note, as well as forms of professional correspondence. Also reviewed are issues in clinical writing related to terminology, ethics, and software.  The book concludes with strategies for developing a professional portfolio, preparing a resume, and writing a cover letter, and features an analysis of multiple-choice tests, those used in the Praxis II exam as well as those prepared by course instructors. Unique and much needed, this is the only book to cover the whole spectrum of the communication sciences and disorders in a modern and approachable form. For any clinician, student, or instructor, it delivers a template for personal\/professional self-development. Furthermore, it will prove to pay for itself many times over in aiding time-saving, accuracy, expediency in claims, and avoidance of damaging legal actions.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49801944432913,"sku":"CIN1597561754G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1597561754.jpg?v=1750762634"},{"product_id":"what-s-stopping-me-from-getting-ahead-book-robert-goldfarb-9780071741262","title":"What's Stopping Me from Getting Ahead?","description":"An expert management coach with over thirty years of experience helping professionals get to the next stages of their careers, identifies—and helps readers break—the 12 unconscious habits and behaviors that are holding them back from the corner office.   About the Book For more than 30 years, Robert W. Goldfarb has advised and coached managers on five continents in organizations of every type who got to a certain level of success in their careers and then stalled.  They were smart, had the right experience and a good track record, and had put in the time and energy to get them to where they were.  But something was holding them back from getting to the highest level of management, and despite their obvious intelligence, they couldn't tell what it was.Now, in the tradition of What Got You Here Won't Get You There, Robert Golfarb isolates the 12 top behaviors that mid- to upper-level managers exhibit at work that keep them from getting to the corner office.  Some of these traits—a drive for results, strong knowledge of their industries, and networking with their peers—may have gotten them where they were, but need to be altered and adapted in order for them to get to the higher levels of management.  The book is organized in an ingenious \"What You Do\" and \"What Others See\" structure, helping readers truly understand how their well-intentioned behaviors can wind up sabotaging their careers.  Using case histories and actual examples from corporations, along with specific, actionable strategies for breaking these bad behaviors, Robert Goldfarb will help professionals everywhere break through their career plateaus and break into the corner office. These self-defeating behaviors are:   Not demonstrating their true personal integrity. Not taking enough time to make sure their boss looks good.A laser-like focus on getting the job done well without appreciating the contributions of others.Using too much humor to build camaraderie and to foster collegial work environments.Lacking real passion for change.Relying solely on intellectual analysis with little reliance on “gut” feelingsFocusing on problems rather than solutionsA reluctance to properly manage former peers and supervisors.Under-appreciating the enormous value of diversity in the workplace.Not fully acknowledging the contributions of others on their teams.Always swinging for the fences and winning every battle, instead of taking a long range view of the situation.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49802108174609,"sku":"CIN0071741267G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0071741267.jpg?v=1751388245"},{"product_id":"consuming-and-producing-research-in-communication-sciences-and-disorders-book-robert-goldfarb-9781635500677","title":"Consuming and Producing Research in Communication Sciences and Disorders","description":"Consuming and Producing Research in Communication Sciences and Disorders is an exciting new textbook designed for undergraduate research methods in communication sciences and disorders (CSD) programs. It is also appropriate for first-year graduate students taking research methods courses in speech-language pathology and audiology. The text guides students in attaining the competencies required to consume, produce, and disseminate research; and students will have the knowledge and skills that are necessary and sufficient to conduct research as is consistent with the duties of an academic professor. The text reviews what obligations an individual, professor or not, has before being permitted to do research. The emphasis is on clinically-oriented professionals who can perform the research associated with professors. Part I on Consuming Research in CSD includes academic-clinical integration of research, as well as information required for consumption of research such as research ethics, the scientific method, types of research, and how to critique a journal article and a diagnostic test. Part II on Producing Research in CSD helps guide the undergraduate student in producing a capstone project or senior thesis and the master's student in producing a graduate thesis or research project. Part II also addresses mentoring, the Institutional Review Board, and conducting academic and clinical research. Part III addresses Disseminating Research in CSD, from the traditional (presenting and publishing academic and clinical research) to the non-traditional (marketing, social media, and new technologies).","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49891039084817,"sku":"CIN1635500672VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52674036859153,"sku":"NLS9781635500677","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1635500672.jpg?v=1751214506"},{"product_id":"professional-writing-in-speech-language-pathology-and-audiology-book-robert-goldfarb-9781635500134","title":"Professional Writing in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology","description":"For courses in professional writing, clinical methods, and professional issues this textbook covers the spectrum of topics relating to professional writing in order to prepare students to become better writers and communicators.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51728116777233,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51728117760273,"sku":"CIN1635500133VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52592832446737,"sku":"NLS9781635500134","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52819692519697,"sku":"CIN1635500133G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1635500133.jpg?v=1750960634"},{"product_id":"translational-speech-language-pathology-and-audiology-book-robert-goldfarb-9781597564458","title":"Translational Speech-language Pathology and Audiology","description":"Translational research has been present and ongoing for decades and yet, in spite of The National Institutes of Health promoting this bench-to-bedside approach since 2006, its adoption by the professions of speech-language pathology and audiology has been relatively scant and mostly individually approached.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52487030636817,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52487031849233,"sku":"NLS9781597564458","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781597564458.jpg?v=1759860150"},{"product_id":"ethics-book-robert-goldfarb-9781597560108","title":"Ethics","description":"Unique - undergraduate and graduate students in communication sciences and disorders do not currently have a resource for ethics other than ASHA's Code of Ethics. The present proposal uses the case study format (the Tudor study) to explore ethics of research in stuttering circa 1939 as well as more general applications to the field. Controversial - the Tudor Study has been compared to Nazi medical experimentation and maltreatment of orphan children Dispassionate - unravels the sensationalist media coverage of the Study to take a scientific and reasoned review and examination of the ethical outcomes presented Recent media attention to a 1939 master's thesis that has become known as the Tudor study prompted Dr. Goldfarb and others to revisit the ethical consideration of this study as a means of exploring ethical issues in clinical and research practices today.  Over sixty years ago, under the supervision of Wendell Johnson (one of the founders of the science of speech-language pathology), graduate student Mary Tudor conducted a study to examine the effect of verbal labeling on the frequency of disfluency in both children who stuttered and children who were fluent.The subjects came from an orphanage in Davenport, Iowa. Johnson's and Tudor's findings - that they were allegedly able to induce stuttering in normally fluent children - supported their hypothesis, but have also raised serious ethical concerns.  In this book, Dr. Goldfarb has gathered the leading authorities in stuttering and, together, they investigate the Tudor study and, more broadly, ethics in scientific research, diagnosis, and treatment in the field of communication sciences.  Students and clinicians alike will find the accounts within this book engaging, stimulating, and ultimately relevant.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52674749366545,"sku":"NLS9781597560108","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781597560108.jpg?v=1762300300"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-ch\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-robert-goldfarb.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
