About
Research on impaired connected speech measures in South Asian languages is limited, particularly in English and European languages. This study aims to identify and characterize linguistic features of connected speech in Kannada and Hindi speakers with MCI, AD, and FTD. The objectives include investigating changes in speech and language patterns, examining the relationship between multidimensional connected speech variables, and examining the impact of social determinants of health.
