9/30/13- Lecture 6 Flashcards
According to chp 9
Who said “stuttering onset occurs between 2 & 5 years of age during period of great language growth”
Bloodstein 1995
According to chapter 9, when is the onset of stuttering?
between 2 & 5 years
According to chp 9
When does stuttering typically develop?
During a period of significant language growth-exemplified by master of morphologic, syntactic forms, & vocabulary development.
According to chp 9
What is CWS?
Children who stutter
According to chp 9
Who said “some children who stutter (CWS) exhibit co-occuring language disorders”
Andt & Heely 2001
According to chp 9
Where does effective communication take place?
Within the context of language. Can’t ignore the context in which stuttering takes place.
According to chp 9
What was the earliest onset on stuttering reported as being? And who reported it?
18 months
Bloodstein 1995
According to chp 9
What are the linguistic demands related to stuttering?
- As children develop more complex utterances , that difficulty to create more complex forms creates more issues with fluency.
- Children exhibit more disfluencies on longer, more complex utterances than short ones.
According to chp 9
What was discovered in regards to MLU and fluency? Who were the researchers?
- More disfluencies where discovered when a child was trying to use longer, more complex phrases (MLU) vs. shorter MLU.
- also, the more complex the form is either morphologically or syntactically, there were more disfluencies
- Klein and Conture (2003)
According to chp 9
True or false
Between CWS and CWDNS fluency is more likely to be compromised with both groups when they are trying to be more fluent.
True
According to chp 9
True or false
The shorter the utterance gets or the more linguistically involved it is, the more problems both CWS and CWDNS both have.
False
According to chp 9
What would you want to do during an assessment?
- Language sample
- comprehensive assessment in all systems of language
According to chp 9
What are the implications for fluency assessment?
- work on shorter phrases, morphologic endings, syntactic form and semantic aspects.
Chp 9 study (pg 159)
Kids who recovered vs. those who persisted with stuttering, which group displayed increase variability in performances on measures of expressive expressive language.
Persistent stuttering group
According to chp 10
Who said “ Three studies indicated possibility that stuttering and phonological difficulties are most likely to co-occur for those children whose stuttering persists.”
Paden & Yairi, 1996
According to chp 10
Who said “ …CWS who continued to stutter more than 36 months post-onset exhibited significantly poorer phonological skills than age and gender matched CWNS.”
Paden et al. 1999
According to chp 10
Whose study “found that for those CWS who had deficient phonological skills near the time of onset of stuttering, their stuttering would be more likely to persist than resolve.”
Thronebrug 1996
** some kids between 3-5 they do recover, but according to this these kids that have phonology issues, they have more tendency to continue to stutter
True or false
The more complex the word is phonologically, the more likely the child will stutter
true
According to chp 10
What form did they find was more evident of stuttering?
consonant cluster because the complexity of moving their articulators
Knowing the phonological issues of language, what should you do do with assessment?
- Develop a phonetic inventory for each child
- percentage of consonants correct
- phonological process analysis
Per chp 10 pg 176
What are the stuttering assessment components for children
- Extensive case history including familial history
- Speech/Language Assessment
- Counting Disfluencies
- Nature of disfluencies
- Social/Emotional/Academic aspects- how handicapping is stuttering?
- Parent reaction to disfluencies
- Motivation: attention span, stimulability and compliance
- Older children: reading/monologue sample
