Second Midterm Part 1 Flashcards
True or False:
Research has shown that complex auditory capabilities are present at birth.
True
innate capacity for categorical speech perception
True or False:
The Eimas et al. used high-amplitude sucking procedure with 1 and 4 month olds to determine how they perceived differences in VOT; infants show the same categorical perception as adults
True
True or False:
Kuhl and Meltzoff found that 24 of 32 infants between 18 and 20 weeks of age preferred to look at a film of a face that matched the vowel utterance they were hearing (/a/ vs /i/)
True
What are the components of the Auditory-Vocal Link?
A.) Input: Auditory Perception and Processing
B.) Output: Speech and Spoken Langauge Organization & Production
C.) Input: Speech and Spoken Language Organization & Production
D.) Output: Auditory Perception and Processing
E.) Both A and B
E - A and B
Input: Auditory Perception and Processing
Output: Speech and Spoken Language Organization & Production
True or False:
If auditory input is compromised, spoken language will not be negatively impacted
False
If auditory input is compromised, spoken language will be negatively impacted

all ; auditory
The auditory system becomes functional around _____ weeks of gestation.
25
Around the third trimester the infant is able to recognize his/her _______ voice and native language.

There are how many postnatal stages of auditory development?
A.) 5
B.) 3
C.) 2
D.) 6
E.) 7
B - 3
Stage I of postnatal auditory development consists of:
______ encoding of _______ characteristics of ______
neural ; fundamental ; sound
Stage II of postnatal auditory development consists of:
using of _______ in sound in _______ ways
information ; specific
Stage III of postnatal auditory development consists of:
________ sound in more of an ______ way
approach ; adult
The following happens during Stage I of Neural Encoding:
A.) develop the neural encoding of auditory input
B.) Immature frequency discrimination
C.) Immature frequency resolution
D.) poorer hearing thresholds than adults
E.) all of the avove
E - all of the above
True or False:
In general auditory evoked potentials tend to improve as child grows older
True
During Stage II - Increasing Specificity and Selectivity the following occurs:
A.) Developing the ability to pull out speech from noise
B.) Use new information to distinguish sounds
C.) Ability to attend to finer details as opposed to global cues
D.) Fine temporal tuning
E.) all of the above
E - All of the above
During Stage III - Flexibility in Sound Processing the following occurs:
A.) Neural mechanisms involved in coding sound mature
B.) Children become more specific in the way that they listen to sound
C.) Children between 9 and 12 years of age are less flexible in their ability to identify sounds when given one cue as opposed to multiple cues
D.) Are able to choose acoustic information to identify sounds by late teenage years
E.) All of the above
E - all of the above
Auditory Development consists of four domains and they are:
HINT: D.D.I.C
Detection ; Discrimination; Identification ; Comprehension
Within the domain of Detection there are subskills that are an integral part of auditory development:
HINT:
A.D.L.P
Auditory Attention ; Distance Hearing ; Localization ; Patterning
True or False:
Discrimination’s subskil; is self monitoring
True
Identification has two subskills:
HINT: S.P.
Sequential Memory, Processing
Define Detection:
hearing a sound without knowing what it means or where it came from
Define Auditory Attention:
anticipating or paying attention to auditory signals over short to longer periods of time
Define Distance Hearing:
attending to sounds in distance
