Educational institutions as a field for speech-language-hearing research: an analysis of publications in brazilian journals
Abstract
ABSTRACT Purpose: to analyze and characterize the speech-language-hearing publications that have Brazilian educational institutions as their field. Methods: all the national active and inactive speech-language-hearing journals were accessed to analyze the titles and abstracts of all articles that referred to research in educational institutions. Articles addressing speech-language-hearing issues, developed in educational institutions, and published in the journals analyzed were selected. The articles found were categorized and analyzed. The categories considered the journal of publication, year of publication, the speech-language-hearing field of knowledge they approached, research context/type of educational institution, target audience, and procedures conducted in the educational institutions. Then, a descriptive statistical analysis was carried out. Results: the largest amount of research made in Brazilian educational institutions was published in CEFAC, in 2015. Such studies were mainly related to the field of language, most of them conducted with elementary school students, to collect data on their assessment and/or diagnosis. Conclusion: national speech-language-hearing research conducted in educational institutions has privileged practices in the fields of language and voice, in elementary school, with students and teachers.
