The paper put forward three pillars of inclusive research, proposed to be used in future studies:

• Participatory attitudes
• Flexibility and responsivity
• Consumer engagement

Other highlights of the research results include:

• Inclusive research design and conduct enable research participation for AAC-users.
• Consumer engagement in research design and conduct drives communication access.
• It is crucial for researchers to hold participatory attitudes about AAC-users.
• Researchers must recognise the necessity of flexible and responsive study design.
• Direct examples from a primary study demonstrate actionable recommendations.
