Weightings of items on the Code-Müller Protocols: the effects of clinical experience of aphasia therapy.

One hundred and twenty-two professionals engaged in aphasia therapy (graduates and undergraduates) ranked and weighted the relevance of the items of the Code-Müller Protocols (CMP) for assessing perceptions of psychosocial adjustment to aphasia using the multiattribute utility technique (MAUT). The degree of clinical experience with aphasia had a significant influence on participants' weightings of the items 'ability to follow interests and hobbies' and 'receiving speech therapy'.
