Q

Tranisition period issue?

A
  • The words are the symbol of not the acquisition of vocab but the ability of the brain to program the articulation of the sound sequences.
  • The physical readiness/dev. of the structures & their ability to handle the more complex programming
  • linking of sounds patterns to physical agility, and the neural programming ability with meaning

Speech Requirements:

  1. Muscle strength
  2. Speed
  3. ROM or excursion(Range of motion)
  4. Accuracy
  5. Coordination of multiple sequenced movements
  6. Motor steadiness

*Speech range is considered to be between 500Hz and 2000 Hz.

59
Q

Types of hearing loss

A

Conductive: usually losses resulting from ME problems
-Less severe
Sensorineural: inner ear and into the cerebrum
-More severe
Mixed

60

  • Auditory Processing DX
62
Q

Sensory Issues

A
  • /r/ child

- dysarthrias

63
Q

Auditory Discrimination

A
Discrimination:
-Of other’s speech
-Of themselves
Locke (1980):
-70% of children with misartics could discriminate between the target and error productions
Summary: it’s not a strong variable
64
Q

Oral Sensation

A
Oral form recognition:
-Not much evidence (limited & contradictory)
-Little clear clinical application
Two point sensory discrimination:
-Ditto 
Sensory deprivation (anesthetization):
-Not sure of clinical application
-Adults: increase in misarticulations, esp. frics & affrics.
65
Q

Language Skills

A
  • Language is the umbrella; articulation is like the spines of the umbrella.
  • Coexistence of lang dx and artic dx: in preschool up to 50% of the children have both.
  • Can exist separately
66
Q

Relationships to Language

A
  • Several studies show that 40%-80% of children with phonological disorders have language involvement.
  • Same for SLI children having phonological dx
  • As severity of phonological dx increases, it is more likely to have a concomitant lang dx present.
  • Whitehurst (1991) found that one or the other may resolve by school age.
67
Q

Relationships to Lanague #2

A
  • Panagos, et.al. (1979) : when syntactic complexity is combined with syllabic complexity, a greater inc in artic errors is likely.
  • When you have both present and treat one, the one treated improves more(WHEW!)
  • When both are present, the likelihood of reading problems increases
68
Q

Personal Characteristics

A
Artic and phonology improve with: 
-Age 
-Femaleness
-Intelligence
Of little influence seems to be:
-Personality type
-Socioeconomic status of families
-Birth order
-Number of sibs
69
Q

Familial Ties

A

Shriberg & Kwiatkowski (1994):
-Of 62 children with arti dx, 39% had a family member with an artic dx and another 17% had more than one family member.
Felsenfeld, et.al.(1995):
-Children whose parents had no hx of artic dx did better on artic tests than children whose parents DID have an artic dx.
*Most of this research has been replicated.

70

A
  • Reverse Swallow
  • Red Flags:
  • Tongue protrusion during open lip swallows
  • Dec’d masseter mvmt during swallow
  • Pursing of lips during swallow
