Q

What is ASHA’s Position Statement on Roles and Responsibilities of SLPs with respect to Reading and Writing in Children and Adolescents (2010)?

(8)

A

SLPs contribute to Literacy

Oral Language is the foundation of reading and writing

Spoken and written language have reciprocal relationship

Children with spoken language problems have difficulty with reading and writing

Instruction in Spoken language can result in increased written language and vice versa

SLPs assess children with persistent language problems in learning to read (decoding) and write (spelling, syntax, morphology, etc.).

SLPs collaborate with teachers and administrators

SLPs explain how difficulties with listening and speaking will negatively impact reading (decoding and comprehension) and writing.

Q

What are the connections between spoken and written language?

(3)

A

Pairing sound awareness (phonemic, phonological, and morphological) with letters (alphabetic principle) for spelling and writing.

Decoding words using sound and letter knowledge

Decoding needs to be fluent for reading comprehension

Q

What is the Broad View of Reading (Perfetti, 1986)?

(2)

A

Reading relies on higher-level thinking

Decoding and comprehension performed simultaneously

18
Q

What is the Simple View of Reading (Gough + Tunmer, 1986)?

(2+2)

A

The understanding that spoken language is foundation for reading comprehension

Reading has 2 components:

  1. Decoding – word recognition processes that transform print into words
  2. Comprehension – is defined as the process by which words, sentences, and discourse are interpreted (i.e., listening comprehension)
19
Q

What is seen with good Language Comprehension and good Word Recognition?

A

Typical Reading

20
Q

What is seen with good Language Comprehension and poor Word Recognition?

A

Dyslexia

21
Q

What is seen with poor Language Comprehension and good Word Recognition?

A

Specific Comprehension Deficit

22
Q

What is seen with poor Language Comprehension and poor Word Recognition?

A

Mixed Decoding and Comprehension Deficit

23
Q

What is the Narrow View of Reading (Crowder, 1982)?

A

Decoding only

24
Q

What is the correct theory of reading?

What will this impact?

A

Each SLP has their own bias

The view of reading each SLP supports will impact assessment and intervention

25
Q

What are the four models of Spoken and Written language comprehension?

(4)

A

Bottom up model

Top Down Model

Interactive Model of Comprehension

Connectionists Model (Seidenberg, 1995)

26
Q

What is the Bottom-Up Model for spoken and written language comprehension?

(2)

A

Language comprehension (spoken and written) starts with initial detection of an stimulus (auditory or visual)

Processed stimulus information is chunked into larger meaningful units.

27
Q

What is the Top Down Model for spoken and written language comprehension?

(3)

A

Importance on schemata

Scripts allow for predictions about the information being processed.

Being familiar with content, allows reader to construct meanings and to facilitate comprehension

28
Q

What is the Interactive Model of Comprehension for spoken and written language comprehension? (Stanovich, 1985)

(2)

A

Good readers need both word recognition and higher-level conceptual knowledge

Parallel processing of information can occur

29
Q

What is the Connectionists Model for spoken and written language comprehension? (Seidenberg, 1995)

(1+2)

A

Accessing meaning uses an interactive network of connections between different two levels of processing to access meaning in the Lexicon

  • Orthographic level - letters
  • Phonological level - sounds

A

When we read language

38

What are Sound-Symbol Associations?

(2)

A
