As genetics research and the human genome project continue to provide valuable information on disease, disorders and disabilities in communication disorders, it will become increasingly critical that audiologists and speech-language pathologists understand principles of genetics, genetic testing, and genetic counseling.
ASHA publishes four peer-reviewed scholarly journals and one peer-reviewed scholarly review journal pertaining to the general field of communication sciences and disorders (CSD) and to the professions of audiology and speech-language pathology. These journals are the American Journal of Audiology; American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology; Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research; Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools; and Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups. These journals have the collective mission of disseminating research findings, theoretical advances, and clinical knowledge in CSD.
