According to chapter 9, when is the onset of stuttering?

Answer 1

between 2 & 5 years

Question 2

According to chp 9

When does stuttering typically develop?

Answer 2

During a period of significant language growth-exemplified by master of morphologic, syntactic forms, & vocabulary development.

Question 3

According to chp 9

What is CWS?

Answer 3

Children who stutter

Question 4

According to chp 9

Who said “some children who stutter (CWS) exhibit co-occuring language disorders”

Answer 4

Andt & Heely 2001

Question 5

According to chp 9

Where does effective communication take place?

Answer 5

Within the context of language. Can’t ignore the context in which stuttering takes place.

Question 6

According to chp 9

What was the earliest onset on stuttering reported as being? And who reported it?

Answer 6

18 months

Bloodstein 1995

Question 7

According to chp 9

What are the linguistic demands related to stuttering?

Answer 7

• 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.

Question 8

According to chp 9

What was discovered in regards to MLU and fluency? Who were the researchers?

Answer 8

• 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)

Question 9

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.

Answer 9

True

Question 10

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.

Answer 10

False

Question 11

According to chp 9

What would you want to do during an assessment?

Answer 11

• Language sample

- comprehensive assessment in all systems of language

Question 12

According to chp 9

What are the implications for fluency assessment?

Answer 12

• work on shorter phrases, morphologic endings, syntactic form and semantic aspects.

Question 13

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.

Answer 13

Persistent stuttering group

Question 14

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.”

Answer 14

Paden & Yairi, 1996

Question 15

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.”

Answer 15

Paden et al. 1999

Question 16

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.”

Answer 16

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

Question 17

True or false

The more complex the word is phonologically, the more likely the child will stutter

Answer 17

true

Question 18

According to chp 10

What form did they find was more evident of stuttering?

Answer 18

consonant cluster because the complexity of moving their articulators

Question 19

Knowing the phonological issues of language, what should you do do with assessment?

Answer 19

• Develop a phonetic inventory for each child
• percentage of consonants correct
• phonological process analysis

Question 20

Per chp 10 pg 176

What are the stuttering assessment components for children

Answer 20

• 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
