Clinical Linguistics is a sub-discipline of linguistics and involves the application of linguistic theory to the field of speech-language pathology. The International Clinical Linguistics and Phonetics Association is the un-official organisation of the field, and was formed in 1991. The Journal of Clinical Linguistics and Phonetics is the major research journal of the field. Clinical Linguists typically work in Speech-Language Pathology departments, or linguistics departments. They will conduct research with the aim of (i)advancing techniques in assessment and remediation in Speech-Language Pathologists, and (ii)offering insights to formal linguistic theories.
