homorganic sounds (1)
same place of articulation
SS do/s
sibilants vs stridents
speech sound with intense high-pitched noise :: sibilants but also with intense frication noise
SS do/s
behavioral theory (4)
learning theory that associates babbling with speech development, acknowledges role of input and speech sound perception, child’s role is passive, correct productions are reinforced
SS do/s
distinctive features theory (2)
categorize speech sounds into acoustic and articulatory aspects, intervention may include phonemic contrasts
SS do/s
generative phonlogy (4)
similar to generative grammar theory, two levels of language (surface and deep), speech sounds categorized (natural or marked), emphasis on phonological rules
SS do/s
natural phonology (1)
phonological acquisition influenced by phonological processes (syllable structure, substitution, assimilatory)
SS do/s
cognitive theory (3)
aka interactionist-discovery theory, children are active learners and use strategies to understand speech and language, applicable only to the earliest stages of development
SS do/s
nonlinear theory (4)*
metrical phonology (prosodic features), feature geometry (features within segments), optimality theory (constraints), gestural phonology (aka articulatory phonology)
*helpful in choosing treatment targets
SS do/s
infant prelinguistic speech production (7)
phonation, vegetative sounds, coo and goo, exploration/expansion, canonical babbling (7-9 mo.), jargon (10 mo.), transition to first words
SS do/s
late 8 sounds
/ʃ/ /ʒ/ /θ/ /ð/ /s/ /z/ /l/ /r/
SS do/s
childhood apraxia of speech (4)
no weakness or incoordination of speech musculature, inconsistent articulatory performance (same word pronounced multiple ways), error patterns (substitutions, omissions, additions, repetitions), automatic speech is easier to produce
SS do/s
dysarthria (2)
decreased strength and coordination or speech musculature that leads to imprecise speech production (slurring and distortions), errors are generally consistent
SS do/s
learnability theory (1)
providing complex input to assist language learning by pushing the client to learn more complex structures
SS do/s
van riper approach (4)*
sensory-perceptual (ear) training -> elicit-establish sound(s) in isolation or syllable level -> sound stabilization -> transfer and carryover
*aka traditional approach
SS do/s
sensory-motor approach (3)
uses facilitative phonetic contexts, gradual and systematic change of production units, treatment using bisyllabic productions
SS do/s
multiple phoneme approach (2)
three phases (establishment -> transfer -> maintenance), simultaneous instruction on errored phonemes
SS do/s
paired-stimuli approach (2)
highly structured sequence approach (words -> sentences -> conversations), trains four key words with two targets in word initial and two targets in word final
SS do/s
integral stimulation (1)
multiple input modes for cueing
SS do/s
enhancing stimulability (1)*
increasing verbal communication attempts for unstimulable sounds
*fussy fish
SS do/s
distinctive features approach (1)
focuses on distinctive features missing from child’s phonological system
SS do/s
phonological contrast intervention (3)
creates phonological contrasts using: minimal pairs, maximal oppositions (maximally distant), and multiple oppositions (for clients with phoneme collapse)
SS do/s
cycles remediation approach (3)
uses cyclical goal attack strategy (different targets are addressed in succession without the need to reach criterion), known for auditory bombardment, generalization is expected
SS do/s
naturalistic speech (3)
conversational approach for treating phonological errors, uses natural activities, clinician models and recasts errors
SS do/s
whole-language treatment approach (3)
multiple areas of language are targeted simultaneously, uses meaningful and functional activities (play, daily routines, storytelling and retelling, conversations), clinician provides models and cues
SS do/s
morphosyntax approach (4)
designed for preschoolers with morphosyntactic errors, incorporates grammar and morphology for intervention (cross-domain effect), uses forced stimulation, emphasizes natural productions
SS do/s
metaphon (3)
metalinguistic approach to phonological disorders, uses phonological awareness to change expressive phonological skills, phase 1 hierarchy (concept -> sound -> phoneme -> word)
SS do/s
core vocabulary intervention (1)
targets whole words that are functional and important until client reaches 70 words
SS do/s
metaphonological intervention (1)
focuses on awareness of sounds and awareness skills
SS do/s
nonlinear phonological intervention (3)
emphasis on awareness and production of phonological forms in context, addresses prosodic structures and speech segments and features, uses various cues types to develop new word shapes and stress patterns
LD young
simultaneous (2) vs successive (2) bilingualism
2+ languages learned at the same time, may exhibit slowed language learning but this is temporary :: L2 is learned after L1, LD only diagnosed if it is present in L1
LD young
bloom and lay (1978) language components (3)
form, content, use
LD young
theory of mind (2)
a complex type of presupposition wherein a child demonstrates they understand what another believes to be true, typically difficult in children with autism
LD young
JARs (2)
joint attention routines, repetitive and predictable patterns of interaction
LD young
narratives vs expositories
story that follows prescribed story grammar :: description of how to do something
LD young
metalinguistics
using language to talk about language, demonstrates phonological awareness in a child
LD young
protodeclaratives vs protoimperatives
using objects to get the attention of caregivers :: child signals caregiver to get objects for them
LD young
late talker (1)
diagnosed to children who do not have at least 50 words and two-word combinations by age 2
LD young
fast mapping vs rote learning
correct use of a new word after one exposure using context clues :: providing definitions and examples for a new word for the child’s acquisition
LD young
free vs bound morphemes
any morpheme that can stand alone :: attached to a word stem since they cannot appear alone
LD young
mean length of utterance measure (1)
the amount of morphemes produced in a language sample and averaged across utterances
LD young
ASHA definition of LD (1)*
“impaired comprehension and use of spoken, written and other symbol systems”
*the disorder may involve form, content and/or function
LD young
specific language impairment (1)
a deficit in language learning is evident however there are no deficits in cognitive, socio-emotional, or motor development and no evidence of hearing impairment
LD young
nonspecific language impairment (1)
children who meet criteria for SLI and have cognitive test scores less than 1 standard deviation below the mean
LD young
IDEA definition of LD (1)
“a disorder in one or more of the basic psychological processes involved in understanding or in using language spoken or written that may manifest itself in an imperfect ability to listen, think, speak, read, write, spell, or do mathematical calculations…”
LD young
language-learning disability (2)
most common, common deficits include: reading, writing, spelling
LD young
genetic features of LDs (2)
tendency to be inherited, may occur on specific genes (chromosomes 7, 16, 19)
LD young
dynamic assessment (2)*
uses intensive and individualized instruction to distinguish a child with severe developmental disability, greatly reduces over diagnosis of children from diverse backgrounds or children who have not received adequate instruction
*closely related to response to intervention (RTI) and diagnostic therapy
LD young
response generalization vs stimulus generalization
child’s production of untrained targets (linguistic level may differ) :: child’s production of the same level of accuracy in an untrained setting with new stimuli and a new clinician
LD young
facilitation vs induction
increasing the rate at which a targeted form or function is learned by using exaggerated models (assumed this target will be learned without therapy) :: using more explicit and systematic set of teaching steps beyond modeling (aka useful teaching where word learning is not assumed)
LD young
IFSPs (2)
individual family service plans, purpose: to monitor performance, describe the programming to be provided and periodically documents behavior change as well as viability of the service delivery plan
LD young
incidental language teaching (2)
a hybrid (client and clinician-centered) approach, the clinician has a specific set of targets and uses a conversation framework developed from materials in which the child is already engaged
LD young
experiential language intervention types (5)*
self-talk, parallel talk, imitation (direct or delayed), expansion/recast, expatiation (child initiates an error and caregiver corrects using an exaggerated model)
*each of these are performed by the caregiver/clinician
LD young
drill vs play (1)*
most structured :: least structured
*spectrum (drill -> drill play -> structured play -> play)
LD young
AIEs vs SIEs
antecedent instructional events (therapy methods prior to child’s attempt of language target) :: subsequent instructional events (feedback)
