when teaching soft starts in tx, what is an appropriate linguistic level at which to begin? | single word level |
to complete articulation rate in SPM, you would divide all stuttered and non-stuttered words by 60 | FALSE - only non stuttered |
what are the three aspects that SSI assesses? | stuttering frequency, stuttering duration, concomitant behaviors. |
Dx instrument to assess stuttering applicable only to children: | SPI |
Changing "blank" was not mentoined in the DVD: | Pitch |
Pullout should be used when... | The client has already learned to hold and tolerate the moment of stuttering |
Disclosure is important becasue: | client openly acknowledges stuttering to listenere, allows client to take control of situation, promotes openness, helps listeners |
which of the following goals/procedures would most likely be used by clinicians who engage in "fluency shaping" for an adult client who is in the advanced stages of stuttering? | reduce the frequency of stuttering to less than 1% of suttered WPM |

a well researched contingent response management approach for preschoolers is: | Lidcombe Program |
Tx approach that focuses on modyfing speech motor patters and parent counseling: | speech rate tx for preschoolers who stutter |
a commonly used cut off point in determining if a child is stuttering is 3% of stuttered words or syllables; a similar criteria suggested by Yairi is at lease SLDs per 100 syllables. | 3 |
parents communication style can cause stuttering | false |
indirect tx involves: | changing parents' communication patterns |
a percentage of children who spontaenously recover from stuttering is: | 75% |

which of the following approaches begins with an exploration of stuttering and then teaches flexible rate, gentle onsets, light contacts, and proprioception? | Guitar's integrated approach |
According to the CALMS model, a multidimensional focus addressing the assessment of stuttering would include: | cognitive, affective, linguistic, motor, social |
desensitization may be an important part of the child's stuttering tx because: | she/he demonstrated avoidance of specific speaking situations |
progress in school-based tx is measured by: | decrease in adverse effects on academic, nonacademic, and extracurricular activities |
learning the "facts" about stuttering from self-help organizatio helps the child: | build locus of contorl skills |
an important step in obtaining generalizatin of fluency skills is: | IDing the everyday environmental cues that should trigger appropriate management strategies |

Best developed and most extensively researched tx for preschool: | Lidcombe |
An operant program that involves parent administered positive contingencies for fluent responses and corrective contingencies for stuttered responses | Lidcombe program |
intervention should increase the child's capacities for fluency and guide families in reducing demands that stress the child's fluency | demands and capacities |
systematic application of operant conditioning procedures ( + and - contingencies) can increase desired behaviors and decrease undesired behaviors | GILCU |
increase levels of airflow before and during speech, stabilize muscle dysfunction, regulate breathing by pausing, increase feelings of control by increasing self esteem | smooth speech |
stuttering is a central processing disorder of the brain which is often associated with irregularities in breathing and results in speech muscle dysfunction - need to learn to control which can be taught by behavioral principles | smooth speech |
increase a person's awareness of when an undesirable behavior occurs and carryout an incompatible behavior whenever the undesirable behavior occurs | parent-assisted regulated breathing |
stop talking immediately when a stutter occurs, exhale reamining air, inhale, exhale slightly prior to initiating speech again | parent-assited regulated breathing |
decrease or elimitate stuttering and maintain decreased stuttering in typical speaking situations | camperdown |
reduce or eliminate stuttering in clinic and everyday speaking situatiosn - maintain levels achieved at the end of program - operant conditioning | SITO |
an integrated approach that involves fluency shaping, stuttering mod, and other procedures | comprehensive stuttering program |

Disorder of stuttering includes: | presumed etiology, impairment in body function, ABC, environment, limitations in communication activities and restrictions |
stuttering, often transient, that began with- or is maintained as a result of - a specific, identifiable neurological lesion or insult | neurogenic stuttering |
stuttering that is clearly related to psychopathology | psychogenic stuttering |
rapid and dramatic response to behavioral management, stuttering worsens on easier tasks, is intermittent or unpredictable, vary with situation, person, time of day, secondaries usually do not occur | psychogenic stuttering |

Differences in brain structure and function of PWS: | larger and more symmetrical L and R planum temporale, more activity in R hemisphere during speaking than in L hemisphere, more L hemisphere activity during speech after tx. |
Differences in sensory processing of PWS: | poorer central auditory processing for temporal information; longer latencies and lower amplitudes of auditory evoked potentials for linguisically complex auditory stimuli; less R ear/L hemisphere advantage on dichotic listening tasks |
Differences in speech motor control of PWS: | slower reaction times; speech motor systems are more variable, slower fluent speech, slower less accruate and less L hemisphereic dominance |
stuttering or a predisposition is inherited | physciological perspective: genetic theory |
in normal speech/language production, a dominant hemisphere takes primary responsibility for linguistic functions - PWS dominance fails to occur causing competing commands | cerebral dominance theory |
normal L hemisphere lateralizatoin, normal R hemisphere function, interference with L hemisphere coming from the R hemisphere through a "slop over" | interhemisphereic interference theory |
normal hemispheric specialization for speech, L hemisphere system for speech but has "pores", lack of L hemisphere activation bias | two factor inference theory |
PWS have a temporal impairment in phonological encoding - adapted to by covert repairs, restarts and postponements. stuttering is a byproduct of self repairs | covert repair hypothesis |
disfluencies occur d/t a disruption in timing among various linguistic formulation and motoric execution demands - stuttering is a loss of control, speaker cannot proceed but does not know why | neuropsycholinguistic model |
deficit in the person's ability to make and use inverse internal models of the speech prod system - PWS has a weakness between what he wants to say & the motor movevement required - sensory to motor transformation | inverse modeling deficit |
the result of one or more factors related to PWS interaction with the environment | environmental theories |
parents react poorly to normal disfluencies in children; this reaction is perceived and responsed to with anxiety and avoidance by the children | diagnosogenic theory |
stuttering evolves from normal disfluency and the child's reponses that lead to tension and fragmentation; responses are self generated | continuity hypothesis - OR anticipatory struggle hypothesis |
child learns to associate speaking witha n emotional response | classical conditioning |
fluency failures are shaped by the responses they elicit | operant conditioning |
stuttering is the involuntary disruption of speech resulting from negative emotional responses that are classically conditioned, while secondary behaviors are operantly conditioned | two-factor model |
integrate physiology, learning and the environment in the etiology and development of stuttering | multi-factorial model |
conditioned weakenss in systems that support fluency interact with environmental factors to precipitate and maintain fluency failure - imbalance between child's current capacities and the demands placed on the child | demands and capacities model. |
peak of stuttering is mos post onset | 2-3 mos |
decline in frequency adn severity of stuttering is mos after onset | 6 mos |
3 aspects of fluency assessment: | data collection, analysis and interpretation, info and counseling |
normal disfluencies: | interjections, revisions, incomplete phrases, phrase repetition, pause |
number of stuttered words that occur in the recorded amount of talking timeq | stuttering rate |

only fluent words/syllables are counted in WMP | articulatory rate |
SPI: | stuttering prediction instrument |

child's speech and related behaviors are not consistent with a dx of stuttering | therapy is not indicated |
