Q

Coarticulation & Stress

Can the same sound look different depending on its phonetic and linguistic context?

A

Yes

/b/ in beet looks different than in boot (coarticulation effect)

Talker’s stress pattern can change appearance of words (“How ARE you?” versus “How’re you?”)

Q

What are the three distinct stages of Audio‐Visual Integration?

A
  1. Perceive auditory/visual signal
  2. Integrate the two signals (imperative!)
  3. Discrete phonetic/lexical decisions
28
Q

What is the Neighborhood Activation Model?

A

Top‐down information used to narrow candidate choices

Uses concept of “Lexical Neighborhoods”

29
Q

What are Lexical Neighborhoods?

A

Words that either sound or look alike and have a similar frequency of occurrence in everyday speech (so they “compete” as a match in everyday speech)

30
Q

What are Acoustic Lexical Neighborhoods?

A

Words that have similar acoustic‐phonetic characteristics

31
Q

What are Visual Lexical Neighborhoods?

A

Words that look similar to each other

32
Q

What are Dense Lexical Neighborhoods?

A

Where there are many words w/similar characteristics and frequency of occurrence

Makes words harder to recognize

33
Q

What are Sparse Lexical Neighborhoods?

A

Contain less similar words

Makes words easier to recognize

34
Q

What are the four goals of Speechreading?

A

Discern speech sounds that cannot be distinguished by sound alone

Decrease dependence on listening by using the whole sensory system

Decode speech more rapidly by using additional cues

Increase ability to predict

35
Q

Do we all rely on speechreading to some extent (though maybe not lipreading)?

A

Yes

36
Q

What are the four factors that influence Speechreading Ability?

A

Speech Reader (Is that person visual aware?)

Environment (Can you see the speaker?)

Talker (Expressions,facial hair, how much their lips move,etc.)

Message (Is it clear, concise, and distinct?)

37
Q

Do young adults lipread better than older adults (65+ yrs) for consonants, words, & sentences?

A

Yes

38
Q

Do younger children recognize certain phonological contrasts as well as older children?

A

No

39
Q

Do younger children have linguistic and world knowledge limits that prevent them from capitalizing on context cues?

A

Yes

40
Q

Do congenital HL patients lipread better than normal hearing patients on correct phonemes?

A

Yes

41
Q

Do congenital HL patients lipread better than normal hearing patients on correct words and/or correct sentences?

A

No

42
Q

Do we tend to spend more time teaching children with HL the analytical stuff and less on the whole picture?

A

Yes

43
Q

Do visual word decoding skills, working memory, phonologic processing skills, lexical identification speed, and verbal inference influence the ability of a speechreader?

A

Yes

44
Q

Can the eyes scanning the face show phonetic and prosodic cues?

A

Yes

45
Q

Can phonetic judgments be made about speech sounds by focusing on the lower face?

A

Yes

46
Q

Can prosodic cues be gained by focusing on the upper face?

A

Yes

47
Q

What is “Gestalt”?

A

The “art” of speechreading

48
Q

Do effective speechreaders/lipreaders recognize that they need to follow the message but do not try to lipread every word?

A

Yes

49
Q

Do individuals need to be assessed to see if they are a good candidate for speechreading?

A

Yes

50
Q

What four areas are tested to see if an individual is a good candidate for speech reading?

A

Vision only

Auditory only

Vision and Auditory

Quiet and noise

51
Q

What is Auditory Enhancement?

A

The improvement of speech understanding provided by auditory
signal

52
Q

What is Visual Enhancement?

A

The improvement provided by visual signal

53
Q

Do older adults show less visual enhancement than younger adults?

A

Yes

54
Q

What is the Analytic Approach?

A

Focuses on perceiving the individual parts of a word (sounds and syllables) before perceiving the entire word.

55
Q

What is the Synthetic Approach?

A

Emphasizes perception of the whole regardless of the parts perceived.

56
Q

What is the Mimetic/Kinesthetic Approach?

A

Includes imitation of target syllables/words to help the student understand how they are made.

57
Q

What are Analytic Speechreading Training objectives?

A

Directed towards developing vowel and consonant recognition
skills

Emphasizes recognition of single phonemes or words

58
Q

What are Synthetic Speechreading Training objectives?

A

Directed towards understanding meaning

59
Q

Does the IDA Institute offer free information on helping the hearing impaired?

A

Yes

60
Q

Can Speechreading Be Taught?

A

It’s controversial

61
Q

Can Self‐Advocacy be taught?

A

Yes

62
Q

Does good communication involve attentiveness to situational clues?

A

Yes

63
Q

Does good communication involve observing lip movements?

A

Yes

64
Q

Does good communication involve listening skills?

A

Yes

65
Q

Does good communication involve observing intonation, rhythm, and stress?

A

Yes

66
Q

Does good communication involve observing contexual clues?

A

Yes

67
Q

Does good communication involve observing gestures and body language?

A

Yes

68
Q

Does good communication involve observing facial expressions?

A

Yes
