Flu AxTx 2 Flashcards

1
Q

What are the things you need to consider before performing the assessment?

A

Consistency effect - consistent distribution in repeated readings; regular and repeatable loci (e.g., I want ttttto swim–in the successive readings, with the same utterance, the same sound will have dysfluency)
Adaptation effect - stuttering decreases in frequency as over the course of several readings; flip side of consistency effect (e.g., Where the stutter occurs, it will decrease)

Q

How do we get the SLD score?

A

Part word repetitions (PWR), single syllable word repetitions (SSWR); RU = the number of times a sound, syllable, or word is repeated prior to saying a word (e.g., pppppppart - 6) divided by the number of words containing the repetitions, DP - dysrhythmic phonation
(PWR + SSWD) x RU + (2 x DP) = WSL

24
Q

What is advisable to tabulate during both conversational speech and reading activities?

A

%SS and %SW
Both tend to be highly variable for a speaker depending on the situation and material

25
Q

What is a behavioral checklist?

A

Checklist for the child to identify their style of coping with sounds, words, and situations
Yes/No questions

26
Q

Tension

A

Measurement of tension using GSR, EEG, EMG
Greater tension = greater probability of a block VF occludes and airflow + voicing ceases

27
Q

True and False. Avoidance can negatively impact the person’s lifestyle more than the actual stuttering

A

t

28
Q

What are the signs of avoidance?

A

Hesitations before the feared word (can be subtle)
Thinking (similar words and circumlocutions)
Using sounds (e.g., “ah”) or words (e.g., you know, let me see) to postpone ot assist initiation–starting tricks

29
Q

How do you test loss of control–Other ABC aspects)

A

Identifying loss of control in another speaker has yet to be demonstrated empirically
Nevertheless, over the years authors have suggest that is possible for experienced clinicians who become calibrated to their clients to be able to accurately identify such moments

30
Q

If you have a formal tool to assess primary stuttering behaviors?

A

SSI-4

31
Q

What is A19?

A

Formal assessment
Measures a child’s attitudes regarding communication
Higher score = more probably of negative attitudes regarding communication
Mean score of the kinder through 4th grade stutterers → 9.07 (S.D. = 2.44)
28 matched controls → (S.D. = 1.80)
This assess affect and has 19 questions that’s why it’s calls A19–for kids

32
Q

What is S-24?

A

For adults
Erickson (1969)’s S24 scale for attitudes regarding verbal communication.
39 true-false items differentiate PWS from PWNS

33
Q

What is OASES?

A

Evaluate the impact of stuttering on a person’s life
Affective, behavioral, and cognitive factors of stuttering
Adults and children

34
Q

Speech reconstructing

A

Fluency shaping

35
Q

Factors: White noise/masking

A

Reductions in stuttering frequency when speaking in the presence of loud noise–e.g., near ocean surf, a waterfall, or a passing train.
Stutterers were unable to hear their own speech
Inference: the inability to hear one’s own speech–rather than mere distraction–produced the effect
“Relatively free from the anxiety–producing cues involved”
Verified repeatedly and extensively

36
Q

Factors: Delayed auditory and feedback

A

For many persons who stutter, speaking under DAF reduced stuttering frequency
In contrast,DAF tends to increase the frequency of disfluencies in typically fluent speakers
Whether feedback can create durable therapeutic improvements in fluency in spontaneous speech outside the research laboratory or clinic is still under investigation

37
Q

Factors: Video Self Modeling

A

Repeated exposed to the stutterer’s error–free, target behavior
Editing video to select segments portraying desired performance
Improves

38
Q

What are the low evidence interventions?

A

Hypnosis and suggestion
Psychotherapy
Pharmaceutical management alone

39
Q

What is stuttering modification?

A

Voluntary stuttering
Fluency enhancement through a change in the stutterer’s manner of speaking
Bring the problem out into the open and to be willing to stutter
Discuss the stuttering freely and casually
Willingness to enter difficult speech situations
Increasing acceptance of dysfluency decreases breakdowns in AWS
Refusal to use word substitutions or other tricks for avoiding stuttering

40
Q

Stuttering Modification: What is Bryngelson’s Therapy?

A

Emphasis on “situational” work → feared situations, feared persons–that is the venue or person during therapy
Clients were taken outside the speech clinic and challenged to maintain an objective attitude in feared situations

41
Q

What are preparatory sets?

A

(1) Begin the word with the articulators in a state of rest
(2) Say the first sound as a movement leading into the next sound
(3) initiate voice or airflow immediately on the attempt
“Easy onsets” → Preparatory sets

42
Q

If the preparatory sets do not work, what is the next one?

A

Pull-outs
If people began to stutter: finishing the word with a smooth, controlled, gliding prolongation (there is still stutter but it will be smooth, controlled, gliding, prolongation)
No frantic struggle to escape → immediate effect of increasing fluency

43
Q

When prolongations or pull outs fail, what is next?

A

Pausing
Study their feelings and behavior and immediately tried the word again
Not to say the word fluently on the seconds attempt but to make some change for the better in their way of stuttering

44
Q

Stuttering Modification: Avoidance Reduction Therapy

A

Reducing efforts to avoid showing stuttering
Reducing efforts to conceal one’s identity as a person with stuttering
Fluency is achieved as a byproduct of self-acceptance and letting go of efforts to control speech → modifying feelings and attitudes in an attempt to improve primary behaviors
Role conflict - most persons with stuttering could perfectly fluent when speaking along
Speaking fluently → expectations of continued fluency (remove the expectation)
Result: heightening anxiety and leading to increased stuttering (this is what we need to reduce)

45
Q

Stuttering Modification: Desensitization

A

Introducing the idea of stuttering on purpose
Voluntary, intentional, or pseudostuttering
Clear indication of the fear associated with the stuttering experience
Until the speaker is able to decrease excessive levels of fear, they will have little success in the succeeding steps of treatment

46
Q

What are the fluency shaping techniques?

A

Rate modification
Continuous voicing
Easy onset of phonation and gentle articulatory contacts
Work to normalize breathing

47
Q

What is fluency shaping? How much stutter dies it reduce?

A

Fluency enhancement through a change in the stutterer’s manner of speaking
Speech restructuring techniques can reduce stuttering frequency by about 50% to 60%

48
Q

What is prolonged speech?

A

Prolong segments (continuants–vowels, liquids, and glides) in spoken utterances
Especially voiced components such as vowels, glides, and liquids
Other sounds (stops, fricatives) are unnatural when prolonged

49
Q

What is syllable timed speech?

A

Increased fluency when they time their speech to a rhythmic beat such as the ticking of a metronome
Control the rate
Distraction, rhythmicity, cues for the next sound

50
Q

True or False. People who stutter tend to become fluent when they find themselves speaking in almost any way strange to them. When the speaker times each syllable to the beat, it is drastically reduced demands on motor planning → less tension and better fluency, which comes at the cost of speech naturalness

A

True

51
Q

What is punishment of stuttering and time-out?

A

Providing a signal that a stuttering behavior occurred
Toy/light activates during moment of stutter
In adults: can be amorphous
Aversive for some, receptive for others
Some benefited very little, while others benefited more extensively

52
Q

True or False. The older the person with stuttering, what technique should you prioritize?

A

Modification > Shaping

53
Q

Indirect therapy–parent counseling?

A

Manage or decrease any factors or conditions that appear to increase disfluency
Rather than “directly” intervening with speech and fluency
Managing speaking when: fatigues, excited , angry, pressured, or in a competitive environment
Some immediate improvement in fluency may be achieved

54
Q

Common guidelines for parent counseling

A

(1) Slowing parental speaking rate
(2) Reducing interrupting behaviors
(3) Reducing “simultalk”
(4) Expanding waiting time between the child’s utterances and parental responses
(5) Acknowledging (rather than ignoring) the child’s speech difficulty

55
Q

Lidcombre Program

A

Good outcomes from a treatment regimen administered by parents

56
Q

What is the first stage of Lidcombe?

A

15 minutes daily activities designed to maximize the child’s opportunities for fluency
Under guidance of an SLP who meets with the family on a weekly basis to observe the child

57
Q

What is the second stage of lidcombe?

A

Defined as the maintenance stage → contingencies are however, and distributed throughout natural speaking situations
Fluent speech → praise, request the child’s evaluation, acknowledge
Stuttering (SLDs) → acknowledge, request self-correction

58
Q

Mixed–Demands and capacities?

A

Components of indirect therapy, based on reducing motoric, linguistic, cognitive, and emotional stressors on children’s fluency.
Following initial weekly, hour-long sessions that involve the parent only, sessions are for both parent and child so that the therapist can observe how recommendations are being implemented and the child’s response.
Therapists also employ similar strategies in direct work with children, particularly issues of the child’s response to stuttering, including desensitization strategies
