Q

Phonology

A

the study of a sound system of a language and addresses the question of how sounds are used rather than how sounds are made.

example: “sing” produced as “thing”

Behavioral
Structural
Natural
Generative
Cognitive and Psycholinguistic
Biological
Nonlinear
29
Q

Behavioral

A

1) Psychological Theory of Learning

2) Contingent Reinforcement / Classical Conditioning

30
Q

Structuralist or Distinctive Feature Model

A

1) Structuralist Theory of Language

2) Universal & innate order of acquisition

31
Q

Generative Phonology

A

“innate”

1) describe phonological patterns in natural languages
2) formulate rules that account for these patterns and systems
3) identify universal principles that apply to phonological systems

32
Q

Natural Phonology Model

A

1) universal aspects of phonological acquisition
2) innate
3) processes change, delete, or simplify adult target
4) Child suppresses processes which do not occur in their native language

33
Q

Cognitive

A

1) Problem Solving Model or Active Learning Theory
2) children are active participants in language acquisition
3) Who formulate & test hypotheses, testing & changing production until they reach adult productions.
4) Model takes into account both universal & individual characteristic

34
Q

Psycholinguistic Model

A

Attempts to explain what we’re seeing in the data

35
Q

Biological

A

1) Innate perceptual biases & disposition to certain motor activities are at root of phonological acquisition
2) Physical developmental status of speech structures, speech musculature, & neuromotor control for speech constrain child’s ability to produce certain speech sounds

36
Q

Processes Persisting after 3 Years

A
  • Cluster reduction
  • Epenthesis
  • Gliding
  • Vocalization
  • Stopping
  • Depalatalization
  • Final devoicing
37
Q

Why use formal artic and phonology tests?

A
  • Easy to give and score
  • Minimal time expenditure
  • Provides a list of quantifiable incorrect sound -productions
  • Provides standardized scores
38
Q

standardized scores do what?

A
  • Compare client’s performance to norms
  • Document need for tx
  • Document change over time
39
Q

Common Tests

A
  • CAAP
  • HAAP
  • GFTA
  • Khan Lewis
  • BBTOP
40
Q

INdependent analysis

A

describe production independently from adult

41
Q

Relational analysis

A

describe correspondence of child

42
Q

Intelligibility

A

85-100-mild
65-85-mild/moderate
50-650 moderate/severe
Less than 50-severe

43
Q

PMLU

A

one point for each segment and 1 point for each additional correct consonant

44
Q

Basic Principles of Remediation Stages of Treatment

A

Establishment
Generalization
Maintenance

45
Q

Establishment

A

-production of target behavior on demand

46
Q

Generalization

A

-final stage, stabilization and retention of behaviors

48

49
Q

Research shows that sounds that are easily imitated are _________________________ OR improve _________________________ remediation.

A

more likely to rapidly improve during remediation

by themselves without

50

Research shows that once a child can imitate a sound, _____________to other contexts occurs rapidly.

A

generalization of that sound

51

  2. Minimal Pair Contrast Therapy
  3. Metaphon Therapy
  4. Cycles Approach
  5. Language Based Approaches
52
Q

Focus of Linguistic-Based Approaches to Intervention

A
  • Phonological errors viewed as lack of feature contrasts
  • Reorganize child’s phonological system
  • Target selection based on non stimulable sounds
  • Phonological processes for which client is stimulable
53
Q

Pros and cons of Linguistic-Based Approaches to Intervention

A

-Pros
1. multiple errors
2. Clients with phonological process errors
Cons
1.Clients with distortions or purely motor problems

54
Q

Motor/Phonetic Based Approaches

A
  1. Teaching sounds
  2. Traditional Approach: Charles Van Riper
  3. Context Utilization Approaches:
  4. Core Vocabulary Approach
55
Q

Focus of Motor/Phonetic Based Approaches

A
  • Development of motor skills
  • Treatment is focused on placement and movement of articulators
  • Follows develpmental approach to target selection
56
Q

Pros and Cons of Motor/Phonetic Based Approaches

A

Pros:
Few errors
Motor production problems
Structural or organic disorders
Cons
Less efficient with multiple errors
Less efficient with phonological process errors

57

A

a. Auditory/ Sensory-Perceptual Training
b. Phonetic Placement
c. Shaping

58
Q

Teaching sounds

A

a. Establishment
b. Stabilization/facilitation of generalization
c. Maintenance

59
Q

60
Q

Roles of Clinician

A

Characterization
Reorganization
Prediction
Monitoring

61
Q

Reorganization

A

Vertical training
Horizontally Structured Tx-
Cyclically

62
Q

Vertical training

A

One or two goals/targets are trained to some predetermined performance criterion before proceeding on to a new target.

63
Q

Horizontally Structured Tx

A

Multiple related goals/ targets trained simultaneously in each session or alternating sessions, usually representative of an error pattern or relationship among target productions.

64
Q

Cyclically

A

Multiple patterns targeted, and worked on sequentially for a predetermined period of time, such as one week.

65
Q

Transfer

A

when linguistic structure of one language is temporarily seen in the other language

66
Q

Acceleration

A

-A linguistic property emerges earlier in one language for bilingual child compared to monolingual child.

67
Q

Declaration

A

Burden of two languages slows overall acquisition or acquisition of a specific structure in both languages.
