Exam 4 (Final) Flashcards
- obstruent sounds
- respiratory airflow or airflow and acoustic energy pass through a narrow constriction to create a turbulent noise source
- noise cues manner
- noise spectrum and vowel transitions cue place
Fricatives
True or false
children with craniofacial anomalies have smaller lexicons than peers up to about age 30 months
true
______% of children with clefts have a competent VP mechanism and do not need extensive tx
75%
- child produces a pressure speech sound or class of sounds as a nasal fricative
- /s/ and /z/ often are produced in this manner iwth other pressure sounds produced normally
- amenable to tx, since it is the result of mislearning and not a structural anomaly
- SLPs not familiar w/ the problem will refer children to a cleft palate clinic
- clinic will refer back to the SLP
Phoneme specific nasal emission
Children with clefts prelinguistic development (6)
- more restricted consonant inventory
- use more glottal stops
- use fewer oral stops
- produce fewer multisyllabic words
- show a preference for nasals, glids, and the glottal fricative /h/
- may show delays in the use of cannonical babbling
early words of children with craniofacial anomalies often include what places of articulation (3)
labial, velar, glottal
resonance disorders in craniofacial anomalies are a result of (3)
- velopharyngeal incompetence (VPI)
- oral fistulae
- various nasalpharyngeal obstructive conditions
True or false
there is no difference in the frequency of vocalizations in children with and without cleft lip/palate
true
resonance disorders associated with craniofacial anomalies may include (3)
- hypernasality
- hyponasality
- cul-de-sac resonance
- known as oral semivowels and are vowel like
- voiced with some constriction of the vocal tract, but not as great as the other consonants
- characterized by quick movement of the articulators
- /j/ and /w/ also known as glides
- palatal produced with tongue position similar to /i/
- /w/
- like a dipthong starting at a high back vowel position /u/
- a velar with lip rounding
liquids and glides
Instrumental assessment of craniofacial anomalies speech
- airflow and oral pressure studies
- nasoendoscopy
- nasometry
- produced with occlusion of the vocal tract and nopen nasal port
- lower resonant frequencies, damping and reduced intensity (nasal murmer) are key features
- vowel transitions cue place of articulation and murmer cues manner
Nasal semivowels
- produced by selectively amplifying the vocal tract to produce distinctive formant patterns
- formant pattern used to perceive
- source-larynx phonation
- filter- vocal tract
vowels and dip thongs
_____ % of children with clefts have problems with VPI and will need speech tx.
25%
Overall sound production errors craniofacial anomalies (4)
- associated with pressure sounds
- sounds may be made w/ weak pressure
- nasal emission may be present
- sounds may be produced in a a compensatory fashion
