QuestionAnswer
Intrinsic Muscles of the Tongue provide the fine, graded control of the articulatory gesture: superior longitudinal, inferior longitudinal, transverse, vertical
Extrinsic Muscles of the Tongue move the tongue as a unit; move the tongue in the general region desired: genioglossus, hyoglossus, styloglossus, chondroglossus, palatoglossus
Intrinsic Muscles of the Tongue include pairs of muscles running longitudinally as well as muscles running transeversly & vertically; interact in a complex fashion to produce rapid, articulations needed for speech and non-speech activities
Superior Longitudinal Muscle(SL) courses along the length of the tongue, comprising of the tongue, comprising the upper layer of the tongue; elevate the tip of the tongue;if 1 superior long.muscle is contracted w/o the other, it will pull tongue toward side of contraction
Inferior Longitudinal Muscle occupies the lower sides of the tongue;pulls tip of tongue DOWNWARD & assists w/ RETRACTION of the tongue(if co-contracted w/SL;unilateral contraction: causes tongue to turn toward the contracted side and downward
Transverse Muscles provides a mechanism for narrowing the tongue;pulls the edges of tongue toward midline-NARROWING the tongue
Vertical Muscles run at right angles to the transverse muscles; FLATTEN the tongue; contraction will pull the tongue DOWN into the floor of the mouth; fibers of the transverse and vertical muscles interweave
Genioglossus primary mover of the tongue;makes up most of deeper bulk;arises from inner mandibular surface at the symphysis & inserts in the tip & dorsum of the tongue & corpus of the hyoid bone
Contraction of Genioglossus contraction of the anterior fibers: RETRACTION-pulls back contraction of the posterior fibers=PROTRUSION of the apex contraction of both anterior & posterior portions=draw the tongue DOWN toward the floor of mouth
Hyoglossus Muscles arises from the greater cornu & lateral corpus of hyoid bone inserting into the sides of the tongue; contraction- pulls tongue DOWN
Styloglossus originates from the styloid process of the temporal bone; divided into 2 portions(interweaves w/ the inferior longitudinal, interweaves w/ hyoglossus);contraction of paired muscles= draws tongue BACK & UP
Chondroglossus arises from the hyoid bone (lesser horn); DEPRESSES the tongue
Palatoglossus muscle of the tongue &/or velum; dual purposes; DEPRESSING the soft palate, ELEVATING the back of the tongue; makes up the anterior faucial pillar
Muscles of Mastication-Mandibular Elevators and Depressors mastication(chewing food) requires mvmt of mandible so molars can make contact to grind the food; muscles of mastication among the strongest in the body; 3 categories: Mandibular elevators, muscles of protrusion, mandibular depressors
Mandibular Elevators Masseter: visible when contracted Temporalis: elevates and retracts the mandible Medial Pterygoid: acts in conjunction with the masseter
Muscles of Protrusion Lateral Pterygoid: protrudes the mandible;aiding in the grinding action
Mandibular Depressors Digastricus, Mylohyoid, Geniohyoid, Platysma
Muscles of the Vocal Tract muscles of the velum: levator veli palatini, musculus uvualae, tensor veli palatini, palatoglossus, palatopharyngeus
Muscles of the Velum 3 speech sounds in English that require the soft palate to be depressed (3 nasal sounds--/m/ /n/ /ŋ/; 3 categories:elevators,tensor,depressors
Velum Elevators levator veli palatini: makes up the bulk of soft palate;primary elevator of soft palate;contraction ELEVATES & RETRACTS posterior velum; Musculus Uvualae: muscles embodied w/in uvula, contraction shortens soft palate & bunches it up
Velum Tensor Tensor Veli palatini: actually dilates the Eustachian tube; aerates the middle ear cavity
Velum Depressors Palatoglossus Muscle: makes up the Anterior Faucial Pillars Palatopharyngeus Muscle: considered a pharyngeal muscle; assist in: narrowing the pharyngeal cavity, lowering the soft palate, elevating the larynx
Pharyngeal Musculature muscles of the pharynx are closely allied w/the muscles of tongue, pharynx is a vertical tube; tube made of muscles wrapping more-or-less horizontally from the front to a midline point in the back
Contraction of Pharyngeal Musculature when the muscles are contracted>> constriction of the pharynx to assist in deglutition
Pharyngeal Constrictor Muscles superior, middle, inferior portions; reduce the pharyngeal space in diameter, superior pharyngeal constrictor is the most important muscle for velopharyngeal function
Salpingopharyngeus Muscle assists in ELEVATION of the lateral pharyngeal wall; arises from the lower margin of the Eustachian tube inserting in the lateral pharynx near the palatopharyngeus muscle
Stylopharngeus Muscle arises from the styloid process of the temporal bone inserting b/w the superior & middle pharyngeal constrictors; ELEVATES & OPENS the pharynx, particularly during degluttion
Overview of the Nervous system the NS is a complex,hierarchial structure; beginning w/neurons building to higher ordering functions using the brainstem & cerebral cortex; neuroanatomy system is responsible for voluntary & involuntary functions
Overview of the Nervous System comm is mainly voluntary, but there are many automatic patterns of responses that are supported by background muscle actions or mvmts; voluntary responses are the domain of the Cerebral Cortex or Cerebrum (makes up the bulk of the brain)
Cerebellum responsible for the coordination of mvmts; involves info received 4rm peripheral sensors;output 4rm cerebellum is modified by Basil Ganglia; motor commands r conveyed to the periphery 4 execution by neural pathways (Nerves/tracts)
Central nervous system anatomical divisions; cerebrum(cerebral cortex), cerebellum, subcortical structures, brain stem, spinal cord; housed w/in bone (skull or vertebral column)
Peripheral nervous system anatomical divisions; 12 cranial nerves 31 spinal nerves; components are outside of bones; sensory receptors
Somatic funtional division; controls the aspects of bodily functions that are under Conscious & voluntary control; most important for speech pathology
Automatic major functional divisions; controls involuntary functions
Neurons all structures are made up neurons; a neuron is the smallest organizational unit in the nervous system;neurons are the communicating elements of the nervous system & r supported by Gillial Cells or Gilia; function of the neuron is to Transmit information
Basic Components of the Neuron soma: cell body dendrite: transmits info toward the soma axon: transmits info away from the soma; axon hillock: the junction of the axon and the soma; myelin sheath: covers the axon; white fatty wrapping Nodes of Ranvier: areas b/w the myelinated segme
Basic components of the neuron telodendria
Fixed Articulators provide a surface against which to juxtapose the tongue or lips or the alteration of resonance & the modification of airflow; upper incisors, alveolar ridge, alveolar ridge
Mobile Articulators lips, mandible, velum, tongue, pharyngeal walls
Fixed articulators upper incisors (in combo w/ the tongue/ lower lip): create the High Frequency Consonants Hard Palate: separates the oral & nasal cavities Alveolar Ridge: (anterior portion of the hard palate): very imp for speech production
Lips lower lip: faster & stronger than the upper lip; achieves a greater velocity and force (function of mentalis muscle); does most of the work in lip closure; attached to the mandible-a movable articulator; can accommodate a variety of jaw positions
Lips form an oral sphincter at the oral opening; can occlude the oral cavity, articulate w/ teeth or form a ring; muscles of the lips are capable of exerting a distinct force on the lips
lips doubled velocity imparted on the lower lip is due to the variable mvmt and placement of the Mandible
Mandible plays slight role in speech; assists the lips; changes position for tongue mvmt;can tightly close when necessary; position for speech is one of dynamic tension b/w antagonist; plays major role in mastication; central pattern generator w/in brainstem
Mandible produces muscular contraction for chewing; must elevate,grind laterally, and depress; requires coordinated activation of elevators & depressors; adjusts the oral cavity opening by elevating & depressing it
Mandible supportive role in carrying the lips, tongue, & teeth to their targets in the maxilla (upper incisors, hard palate, alveolar ridge);
Mandible works synergistically w/ tongue to produce fine adjustments necessary for vowel production; paralysis of the muscles of mastication can be devastating to speech intelligibility
Tongue very versatile;most important of the articulators;produces most English phonemes; extrinsic muscles provide major mvmt; intrinsic muscles involve shaping of tongue
Velum soft palate;performs wide range of mvmts; production of most speech sounds-must remain in an moderately elevated position;non-nasal speech-velum generally remains closed(constriction of the Levator Veli Palatini)
Velum Opening & closing of the Velar port must occur rapidly & precisely to avoid hyper-or hypo nasality; production of high-pressure consonants (fricatives & stops) requires greater velopharyngeal effort
Development of Articulatory Ability: Motor system of newborn(neonate) governed by protective reflexes: provide protection for newborn, allow newborns to meet their needs, motor system is out of newborn's control, mvmts are gross responses to environment
Development of Articulatory Ability: Motor system of developing infant infant gains control of motor functions; makes voluntary mvmts of trunk, neck, and limbs, gains cortical control of motor patterns, ability to make graded mvmts of mandible, becomes able to make differentiated lingual mvmts
Development of Articulatory Ability: Speech development in Children four vital elements of motor control: gravity (vestibular stabilization), flexor-extensor balance (simultaneous with standing and walking), trunk control, differentiation of motor control
Development of the Vocal Tract Approx. 6-8 cm at birth Approx. 15-18cm in adults
Development of the Mandible tongue has growth similar to mandible; increases from 2-4 cm in first 2 yrs; achieves 80-90% of adult size by 7 yrs
Coordinated Articulation speech is the most complex sequential motor act;theories of speech have evolved over time;speech theories based on: locus of control, need for consistency of motor act, task specification
Hierarchical Elements of Speech:Conceptual system develops the proposition or idea to be expressed,idea represents sentences to be spoken,selection of appropriate words to match concept, selection of words to express & fit the proposition
Hierarchical Elements of Speech: Phonological system of speech syllable structure taken from lexical selections, selected words broken down into: syllables, selected phonemes, features of the phonemes; muscles of articulation not involved
Hierarchical Elements of Speech: Muscle movement system of speech muscles activated to meet needs of selection process: develop an idea we need to express, map idea into muscular mvmts, change 3-dimensional space of oral cavity (changes result in acoustical output that represents goals)
Hierarchical Elements of Speech: future theories of speech must account for these elements of speech fluidity of production of speech, variability of articulation based on context, ability of articulators to achieve phonetic target
New major theories of speech control have been developed The Control Theory, Dynamic or Action Theory Models, The DIVA Model
Central control Theory claims that muscular mvmt originates in response to linguistic needs
Basis of the control theory there is a "master control" system mechanism-dictates muscle mvmts based on the linguistic goal, administers muscle commands regardless of articular conditions of the moment,accts for dominance of articulation for speech
Dynamic or Action Theory Models coordinative structures interact to accomplish completion of a trajectory (targets of mvmts); recog physical properties involved in articulation, enable system to adapt to changes in envir., acct for difficulties in articulation theory
Dynamic or Action Theory Models explain coarticulation: the overlapping effect of one articulatory gesture on another explain perturbation: sudden, unexpected force applied to an articulator
DIVA model of speech production Directions Into Velocities of Articulation; includes feedback about accuracy of articulation (auditory feedback, tactile feedback, kinesthetic feedback, feedback from external sources)
