Talk:Melodic Intonation Therapy

I do not agree with the part in the history section claiming: "there have not been many studies published that can truly support the effectiveness of MIT (Carroll 1996:12)". Melodic Intonation Therapy has proved to be effective in "well selected" aphasic patients with Broca's aphasia specially suffering from apraxia of speech. There is evidence from at least 8 languages including English, German, Dutch, French, Persian, Arabic, Romanian and Japanese to my knowledge. I will add the references soon. MIT is probably the only language therapy method that has undergone a clinical trial.

"MIT is probably the only language therapy method that has undergone a clinical trial." What utter rubbish. Clearly you have no idea about the field. There are quite literally hundreds if not thousands of clinical trials on language treatments for aphasia, including many many RCTs. Girabbit85 (talk) 03:15, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
