The vocal characteristics include:
Loudness, Quality, and Pitch
The types of respiration include:
Abdominal, clavicular, and thoracic
The types of resonance include:
Hypernasal, Hyponasal, Cul-de-sac, and Mixed
When the VP valve does not close completely during production of oral sounds:
VP Dysfunction
When there is VP dysfunction due to anatomical / structural defect (ex. cleft palate):
VP Insufficiency
When there is poor movement of structures (ex. cranial nerve damage or dysarthria):
VP Incompetence
When there is poor closure due to mislearning (ex. misarticulation)
VP Mislearning
To evaluate respiration, an SLP should assess:
Coordination, length of words per breath, and maximum phonation time
Characteristics, resonance, respiration, and intelligibility are diagnostic features of what:
Voice
Vowel and consonant precision, duration, and fluency describes what term of speech?
Articulation
Rate, rhythm, and stress of speech describes what term of speech?
Prosody
Movement, function, and symmetry of structures describes what term of speech?
Oral Motor
______ compensates and facilitates communication and has a “zero exclusion” policy.
AAC
Types of AAC inlude:
Aided (external aid: communication board, books, voice output device) and Unaided (produced by the body: vocalizations, gestures, and signs)
A communication board and a BigMack are examples of what level of AAC technology?
Low Tech
