22
Q

What are areas 41 & 42?

A

Auditory Receptor Cortex

Found in each temporal lobe

23
Q

What is area 44?

A

Broca’s Area

24
Q

Where is area 44 found?

A

frontal lobe of the left hemisphere, located in the inferior frontal gyrus

25
Q

What does area 44 (broca’s) control?

A

fluent, well-articulated speech.

this is the dominant hemisphere for most persons (controls language function)

motor speech plans for oral expression

26
Q

What is the definition of apraxia?

A

a neurologic speech disorder that reflects an impaired capacity to plan or program sensorimotor commands necessary for directing movements that result in phonetically and prosodically normal speech.

27
Q

What is the definition of dysarthria?

A

a collective name for a group of neurologic speech disorders that reflect abnormalities in the strength, speed, range, steadiness tone, or accuracy of movements required for the breathing, phonatory, resonator, articulatory, or prosodic aspects of speech production.

28
Q

What are etiologies of speech disturbances not classified as motor speech disorders?

A

other neurologic speech disorders

non-neurologic speech disturbances

normal variations in speech productions

29
Q

What are some examples of “other neurologic speech disorders”?

A

acquired neurogenic stutter

palilalia

echolalia

some forms of mutism

foreign accent syndrome

aprosodia

aphasia

akinetic mutism

other..

Sensory deficits: congenital deafness, hearing loss

30
Q

What are examples of non neurologic speech disturbances?

A
  • musculoskeletal defects (laryngectomy, cleft lip and palate, fractures, abnormal variants of cavity size and shape)
  • non neurologic or nonpsychogenic voice disorders (dysphonias associated with head or neck neoplasms, vocal abuse, hormonal disturbances)
  • psychogenic and related nonorganic speech disorders (schizophrenia, depression, conversion disorder)
31
Q

What are examples of normal variations in speech productions?

A
  • age related changes in speech (pitch, voice quality and stability, loudness, speech breathing patterns, rate, fluency, and prosodic variations)
  • gender
  • variations in style: personality, emotional state, and speaking role
