Question | Answer |
---|---|
What is one type of treatment of CAS? | Prosodic Approaches |
What is one type of treatment of CAS? | Signed Target Phoneme Therapy |
Touch Cue Method has 4 stages? | False |
What is the Touch-Cue Method? | Tactile cues to the face and neck, along with simultaneous auditory and visual cues through three stages |
What is Stage 1 of the Touch-Cue Method? | A series of nonsyllable drills to teach the cues, improve sequencing, and facilitate self-monitoring |
What is Stage 2 of the Touch-Cue Method? | Moves the learned sequences into monosyllabic and polysyllabic words (real and nonsense word, and emphasizes distinctive feature contrasts) |
What is Stage 3 of the Touch-Cue Method? | The child is asked to produce multiword utterances and then move to spontaneous speech |
What is Signed Target Phoneme Therapy? | Hand shapes from the American Manual Alphabet are used simultaneously with an auditory model. |
What is a characteristic of the Adapted Cueing Technique? | Utilizes gestural cues |
What is a characteristic of the Adapted Cueing Technique? | Hand motions are used by the clinician to reflect patterns of articulatory movement and manner of production |
What is a characteristic for the Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing for Speech Motor Learning (DTTC)? | Emphasizes the shaping of movement gestures for speech production and the continued practice of the gestures in the context of speech |
What is a characteristic for the Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing for Speech Motor Learning (DTTC)? | Adding and fading of cues is important |
The potential presence of developmental disabilities and/or comorbid conditions makes diagnosing children with AOS under the age of 3 more difficult | True |
Lack of a single validated list of diagnostic features that differentiates CAS from other types of childhood speech sound disorders makes diagnosing children with AOS under the age of 3 more difficult | True |
Lack of a sufficient speech sample size for making a more definitive diagnosis makes diagnosing children with AOS under the age of 3 more difficult | True |
Sorting out inability versus unwillingness to provide a speech sample or to attempt a speech target makes diagnosing children with AOS under the age of 3 easier | False |
Some primary characteristics of CAS are characteristic of emerging speech in typically developing children under the age of 3 years makes diagnosing children with AOS under the age of 3 easier | False |
The possibility that changes occurring prior to age 3 may alter the diagnostic label makes diagnosing children with AOS under the age of 3 easier | True |
What do "nonspeech sensory and motor problems" for CAS include | Gross and fine motor delays |
What do "nonspeech sensory and motor problems" for CAS include? | Motor clumsiness, oral apraxia |
What do "nonspeech sensory and motor problems" for CAS include? | Limb apraxia |
What do "nonspeech sensory and motor problems" for CAS include? | Feeding difficulties |
What is a language deficit for CAS? | Delayed language development |
What is a language deficit for CAS? | Expressive language problems (ex. word order confusion and grammatical errors) |
What is a language deficit for CAS? | Problems when learning to read, spell, and write (literacy) |
What is a language deficit for CAS? | Problems with social language/pragmatics |
What is a segmental and suprasegmental feature for CAS? | Inconsistent errors on consonants and vowels in repeated productions of syllables or words |
What is a segmental and suprasegmental feature for CAS? | Lengthened and disrupted coarticulatory transitions between sounds and syllables |
What is a segmental and suprasegmental feature for CAS? | Inappropriate prosody, especially in the realization of lexical or phrasal stress |
Idiopathic CAS affects 2-3 boys for every 1 girl | True |
Lower prevalence in those with glactosemia and fragile X syndrome | False |
What does "idiopathic" mean? | A known or unknown complex genetic or metabolic neurobehavioral condition |
CAS may occur: | Due to a known neurologic condition (e.g. trauma, intra-uterine stroke) |
CAS may occur: | When the cause is unknown and not part of a more complex condition |
CAS may occur: | Idiopathic |
AOS cannot exist in adults: | False |
