This short, readable book describes the hearing evaluation of preschool children with communication disorders. The authors, an audiologist and an otologist, emphasize that in addition to peripheral hearing loss, other auditory pathology or additional problems (mental retardation, brain damage, psychological problems) may contribute to the communication handicap. They espouse the multiple discipline or team approach in the medical setting. There are six chapters, four of which describe methods for individual and group hearing evaluation. Standard techniques of hearing evaluation are not applicable to very young children who cannot give a voluntary response to an auditory stimulus.

Entrepreneurship is usually recognized as the individual behaviour or process.  At the same time entrepreneurs are presented as the leaders who should be able to manage the teams and to use teams’ capital to achieve business goals. There are some resources discussing collective entrepreneurship or entrepreneurial teams as the conditions for running a company successfully or for reaching innovative results. The aim of this article is to analyse if individualistic versus team approach is prevalent and important in business students’ perception of entrepreneurship and their preferences.  The research conducted on 120 students group indicates these are not the important approaches and the teams’ entrepreneurial capital seems to be undervalued by young Poles. There is some recommendation concerning support of collaboration attitudes in entrepreneurial activities.

Pharmacological intervention for depressive symptoms in institutionalized elderly is higher than the population average. Among the patients on such medications are those with a puzzling mix of symptoms, diagnosed as “dementia syndrome of depression,” formerly termed “pseudodementia”. Cognitive-communicative changes, potentially due to medications, complicate the diagnosis even further. This discussion paper reviews the history of the terminology of “pseudodementia,” and examines the pharmacology given as treatment for depressive symptoms in the elderly population that can affect cognition and communication. Clinicians can reduce the risk of misdiagnosis or inappropriate treatment by having an awareness of potential side effects, including decreased attention, memory, and reasoning capacities, particularly due to some anticholinergic medications. A team approach to care should include a cohesive effort directed at caution against over-medication, informed management of polypharmacology, enhancement of environmental/communication supports and quality of life, and recognizing the typical nature of some depressive signs in elderly institutionalized individuals.

Abstract Many children with dysphonia present with benign vocal fold lesions, including bilateral vocal fold nodules, cysts, vocal fold varices, and scarring. Evaluation and treatment of these children are best undertaken in a thoughtful and coordinated manner involving both the speech-language pathologist and the otolaryngologist. The goals of this article are (a) to describe the team evaluation process based on a “whole system” approach; (b) to discuss etiological factors and diagnosis; and (c) to review current medical, behavioral, and surgical treatments for children with different types of dysphonia.
