Articulatory-Phonological Develop & Speech Sound Disorders
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| The term articulation disorder generally refers to what? | -speech motor control problems -physical difficult producing sounds |
| The term phonological disorder is usually used to describe what? | -underlying difficulty w/phonological aspect of lang knowledge -displayed by highly unintelligible child |
| Why do so many professionals use the term speech sound disorder instead of specifying phonological or articulation problems? | b/c they acknowledge that many children have a combo of motor & language knowledge difficulties |
| What are the most common theories of phonological development (to explain how children acquire phonological rules & sounds in speech communities) | -linear phonology theories -nonlinear phonology theories |
| T/F: Some researchers have proposed time frames in which typically developing children use certain phonological processes for a time and then stop using those processes as they mature? | TRUE |
| In general, when we say a child has a speech sound disorder, what are we saying? | that he/she has not developed speech skills normally |
| speech sound disorders are generally viewed in what 2 categories? | 1. functional articulation disorder (aka idiopathic) 2. organic disorders (arise from physical anomalies) |

| What is McDonald's Sensory-Motor Approach? | -based on assumption that the syllable (not the isolated phoneme) is the basic unit of speech production -principles of coarticulation are important w/this approach |
| Does research support the assumption of McDonald's Sensory-Motor Approach that production of non-error syllables will facilitate correction of errored productions? | no |
| The linguistic approaches assume that a child has a rule-governed system w/specific patterns, but it differs from the adults system, so tx is geared toward what? | modifying the underlying rule system to match the adult standard |

| What are contrast approaches? | -minimal pairs: differ by 1 feature -maximal contrast therapy (max opposition): as many phonemic contrasts as possible (place, manner, & voicing) |
| What is Metaphon therapy? | -based on metalinguistic awareness -to enhance metaphonological skills -assumes difficulties do not necessarily llie in actual motor production of speech sounds, but in acquisition of rules of phonological system |

| Metaphon therapy focuses on differences b/n sounds like: | -long short -noisy quiet |
| Is the Metaphon therapy efficacious? | -more research is needed to make this determination |
| What is the Phonological Process Approach (PPA)? | -based on assumption that multiple errors reflect operation of certain phonological rules (erros are phonemic, not phonetic) -errors are grouped/described as phonological processes (FCD, CR, etc) |
| Which approach is a widely used phonological process approach? | cycles approach |
| What is Cycles Approach? | -phonological pattern approach -for mult misartic/highly unintelligible -errors are targeted based on stimulability, intelligibility, % of occurrence (40%+) |
| In the cycles approach, is it recommended that targets are drilled til mastery? | no -b/c Hodson/Paden believe acquisition is gradual |
| In the Cycles Approach, how many error pattern are treated in each session? | only one -one hour for ea error, then move on to the next |
