PhonDis SLP610

        Help!  

Term
Definition
English phonotactics   3-consonant clusters at beginning of word start with /s/. No nasal onsets. No /h/ or glide codas.  
🗑
Suprasegmentals   Mechanisms superimposed on the verbal signal to change the form and meaning of the sentence by acting across the elements or segments of that sentence.  
🗑
Prosody   intonation/rhythm; lexical stress (correctly placing primary stress within multi syllable words); contrastive stress (placing vocal emphasis on important or new information within sentences to facilitate listener comprehension. )  
🗑
Paralinguistics   emotion, voice registers, pitch, volume, rate  
🗑
suprasegmental treatment populations   foreign accent reduction (Asian languages - lengthen vowels); dialect coaching (acting); ASD  
🗑
Functional/developmental etiology   Appearing in childhood with unknown cause, often improves with development. Can be the result of particular compensatory behaviors a person is doing, or a reaction to some traumatic event. (e.g., Arctic, CAS, phon. dis.)  
🗑
Organic etiology   Known medical cause from within the body: Congenital or Acquired  
🗑
Congenital   from birth. (e.g., CP – neurological motor disorder caused by perinatal anoxia)  
🗑
Acquired   after birth (18yrs?).  
🗑
Articulation disorder   Distortions and/or isolated substitutions. ~5 or fewer sounds. Intelligible. Low risk for language development and academic problems.  
🗑
Phonological Disorders   Omissions and substitutions. Multiple sounds/classes affected. Poor intelligibility. Problems in language and reading. Educational and occupational disadvantages in adulthood.  
🗑
Factors in developmental articulation/phonological disorders   a) oral-structural anomalies; b) otitis media; and c) environmental and psychosocial factors  
🗑
Artic/phon. factors: Oral-structural anomalies   Ankyloglossia (tong-tied), Tongue-thrust (reverse swallow);  
🗑
Ankyloglossia   Difficulty raising tongue to the roof can lead to misarticulating, and swallowing difficulties. Mechanical or social limitations.Effortful speech/ (Frenotomy)  
🗑
Tongue-thrust   Protrusion through incisors (thumb sucking, pacifier use, and “mouth breathing” from allergies, tonsillitis, nasal congestion). Anterior sound production. Difficulty with /s/ & /z/. Open bite. (Behavioral/ myofunctional Tx. Tongue thrust appliances.)  
🗑
Artic/phon. factors: Otitis media   Recent data shows very small associations between otitis media with effusion and speech and language development.  
🗑
Artic/phon. factors: Auditory discrimination   Phon. dis. children have significantly poorer discrimination skills than TD peers.  
🗑
Prognosis factors (excellent, good, fair, guarded).   Hx of therapy, parental concern, cooperative nature, client/caregivers motivation, level of impairment.  
🗑
Prelinguistic performance   Reflexive crying and vegetative sounds (0-2m). Cooing and laughter (2-4 m). Vocal play (4-6 m). Canonical babbling (6+ m). Jargon.  
🗑
Early linguistic performance   First words: stable, consistent, adult-like form. Proto-words. More compr. than expr. CV and CVCV syllable shapes. Stops, nasals, glides. Bilabials and alveolars. Pre-vocalic positions. Prosodic variation.  
🗑
Llow-output two-year old assessment   One-way mirror. Pre-recorded sample. Extended play. Prompt early-developing phonemes and syllable shapes (moo, baa if paying with farm). Modeling, cueing, imitation. Probe comprehension and communicative intent. Use Dudsberry Test (SPAT-D III).  
🗑
Phonetic inventory   for children in the prelinguistic stages of development (e.g., jargon stage) to identify the phones and syllables shapes they are capable of producing.  
🗑
Phonemic inventory   constructed using real words, once the child is in the first 50 stage.  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Goals   Help determine if a disorder exists and its severity. To confirm or disconfirm our provisional diagnostic hypothesis. To identify and prioritize our preliminary therapy goals.  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Case History   Decisions on which tests to administer. Relevant birth and development history. Parent or client concerns.  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Interview   Clarify any questions. Relevant details that were not included earlier. Begin building rapport with the client and caregivers.  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Articulation/phonological test   Sample all consonants in the pre- and post-vocalic positions, sometimes medial. Standard scores compare performance to age-matched peers (mean of 100; SD of 15); Percentile i.e. allows for completion of an error analysis  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Stimulability   Assesses ability to correct or improve production with models and cues. Informs future therapy. Assists with prognostic statements: less stimulable --> more therapy  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Oral-mechanism exam   Rules out functional/structural deficits impacting speech and language.Helps with appropriate referrals before start of therapy.  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Speech sample/ intelligibility   Naturalistic and contextualized speech. Assesses speech rate, intelligibility, receptive and expressive skills, voice, fluency and pragmatics, identifies patterns, incorporates stimulability, saves time and effort.  
🗑
Standard assessment battery: Hearing screening   rule out any possible hearing loss that may impact speech or language and to make appropriate referrals to an audiologist as needed.  
🗑
Auditory discrimination testing   to determine if the child perceives the difference between his/her error and the correct (target) phoneme; assess substitutions, omissions and distortions  
🗑
Highly stimulable Tx start   Rvachew position More rapid therapeutic success Keeps frustrations lower while trying to build client rapport  
🗑
Less stimulable Tx start   By targeting the less stimulable sound (if they are of the same class/manner) the more stimulable sound is more likely to spontaneously correct itself. It will take longer to address the less stimulable sound and it is not going to resolve on its own.  
🗑
Intelligibility   Ability to be understood depending on familiarity, context, # and types of errors. Percentage words identified in picture naming. Commercial intelligibility tests ( for hearing impaired or adult dysarthric speakers), The Beginner's Intelligibility Test (  
🗑
