Q

What is a delay?

A

Normal errors, mispronunciations happening later than would be expected ex: lisps, misarticulations of /r/ or affricates

Q

What are possible causes for SSDs?

A

Typically unknown, may be related to language deficit, family history, tongue thrust, speed sound discrimination difficulty, OM with effusion, genetics, motor speech involvement, hearing loss, cleft palate

Q

What is the prognosis for children with a phonological disorder?

A

Poor–difficulty in solving initial problems. Almost always have reading/writing disorders due to poor PA skills

16
Q

What does it mean that speech is an overlaid function?

A

Speech is a secondary function, with breathing and eating being the primary function

17
Q

What 4 systems are involved in speech?

A

Respiration, phonation, articulation, and resonance

18
Q

Why does speech also involve sensory systems?

A

Feedback (auditory, tactile, proprioceptive, kinesic)

19
Q

What does kinesic mean?

A

movement

20
Q

What does proprioception mean?

A

sensing one’s position in space

21
Q

What is articulation?

A

The totality of motor processes involved in the planning and executions of sequences of overlapping gestures that result in speech

22
Q

What is phonotactics?

A

Rules that govern sound combinations

23
Q

How many phonemes are there in american english?

A

40-46

24
Q

What is a phoneme?

A

Basic linguistic unit/segment doesn’t carry meaning in itself, but changes meaning

25
Q

What is phonological awareness?

A

knowledge of the sounds and syllables and sound structure of words (can manipulate sounds in words)

26
Q

What is shallow phonological awareness?

A

Awareness at the word level ex: can rhyme

27
Q

What is deep phonological awareness (and what is it also known as?)

A

Phonemic awareness=awareness at the level of individual phonemes. Ex: Blending, segmentation, elision, transposition (look up examples of each)

28
Q

What is the name of the basic unit within phonology and how is it notated?

A

Phoneme /virgules/

29
Q

What is the name of the actual realizations of phonemes (the motor production) that is concrete and the basic unit within articulation? How is it notated?

A

Phone [brackets]

30
Q

Which subcategory of SSD is a speech disorder? which is a language disorder?

A

Artic=speech
phonological=language
(say predominate artic or phono, rare to have one completely in isolation

31
Q

What is the role of the SLP to consider in regards to Speech sound disorders?

A

Make sure to differentiate which type when assessing so the client gets the correct treatment

32
Q

When would we diagnose an SSD as an articulation disorder?

A

Not age appropriate errors(delayed, not deviant), limited to errors in a few sounds (mainly distortions), without an identifiable pattern, do not compromise intelligibility, associated with organic, structural, or neurological origin
