Questions I keep missing Flashcards
The structure that regulates body posture, equilibrium, and coordinated fne motor movements is the ________.
cerebellum
What is the corpus striatum composed of?
globus padillus, caudate nucleus and putamen
These are composed of a ring of connective tissue and muscle extending from the tips of the arytenoid cartilages to the larynz. They seperate the laryngeal vestibule from the pharynx and help preserve the airway.

diecephalon.

Research on prevalance of stuttering has shown what?
- -familial incidence is higher than general population
- -sons of stuttering mothers run greater risk than sons of stuttering fathers
- -blood relatives of stuttering woman run greater risk than those of a stuttering man.

DAF and adaptation.
Signs that seperate neurogenic stuttering from early developmental stuttering are….
- -no or minimal adaptation effect
- -reduction upon reading
- -minimal variability in stuttering across speech tasks
- -minimal effects of delayed auditory feedback
- -no associated motor behaviors
- -no obvious anxiety in speaking siutations

Most reduction occurs by 5th reading.
Content validity
based on a thorough examination of all test items to determine if the items are relevant to measuring what the test purports to measure, and whether the items adequately sample the full range of the skill being measured
Experimental Group Designs
-One experimental group and one control group-
Pretest-post test is common group design
Experimental Group Designs Advantages
Strong internal validity in that extraneous or confounding variables are ruled out
Experimental Group Designs Limitations
not always possible to draw random participants from specific clinical populations
Single Subject Design
Demonstrates cause and effect relationship
Single Subject Design Advantages
–clients who serve as participants receive treatment –help generalize research studies to individual clients, easily replicated
