What is Response Elaboration Training (RET)? Does it work? How? Why?
The Clinician’s Guide to Response Elaboration Training for Aphasia will introduce you to the ins-and-outs of RET, a treatment that systematically increases the number of words in patient-initiated verbal responses using a forward chaining technique.
This Recipe SLP guide provides a step-by-step how-to for implementing RET for individuals with aphasia and Modified RET for individuals with aphasia and apraxia. This guide explains the theory behind RET, briefly summarizes the evidence for patient outcomes, and provides active links to online resources. The benefits of the treatment are understood in the context of scientific evidence, clinical expertise, and patient perspective. The bibliography and website links are a helpful starting point for anyone who wants to further explore the method and science of RET.
