Experimental: Intervention
Participants in the intervention group will use a speech therapy application, a software designed for post-stroke dysarthria speech therapy and provided in the form of a mobile application. The application provides intensive speech treatment, including respiration, phonation, resonance, prosody, and articulation exercises. The system analyzes patients' voices collected while using the application and delivers the results through real-time visual and summary feedback, increasing patients' ability to self-monitor.
