Newsletter - February 2018
Hi there,
Welcome to the February speechBITE newsletter! This month we are updating you on some of the latest research added to speechBITE.
Did you want to know more about how we rate papers on speechBITE? speechBITE has a free online training program for learning how to use the PEDro-P scale. This interactive training program includes a step by step guide to using the scale, detailed descriptions of criteria and provides examples of how to apply the scale to randomised and non-randomised control trials in speech pathology. You can register for the program here.
