Q

Language delay

A

only use the term language delay when referring to very young children
suggests that while a child is behind on language now, they will later catch up
can be very misleading because a delay can develop into a disorder if not acted upon
at -1.25 would have a delay because they are at risk
pl 99-457
-free and appropriate developmental services
-for children with know communication disorder and at risk for communication disorders
“Late talkers” turn into disorders
there is no set definition for these terms that all professionals follow

Q

Norm Chompsky

A

studied linguistics
theory of language acquisition that some still believe in
-innate language acquisition
-your brain is wired to learn and develop language from birth
-you only need a little bit of language stimulation to acquire language
he thinks of language in a modular approachnot as many people from speech pathology adapt that theory, they understand it utmost SLPs don’t always embrace that theory

Q

limited capacity model

A

your brain is only able to hold on a certain amount of information
-children with language disorders have a limited capacity model (difficulty with working memory)
if you cannot hold onto language information, you will have problems in many areas of your life
can be related to language and attentional resources (being able to attend)

Q

working memory

A

necessary to learn, reason, and remember
processing information and then manipulating that information
does not improve-you are born with a fixed capacity system
those with LD do not have an normal capacity system and that will not improve, we can only help them become more efficient
will see the most on this in the field when looking at articles
where you process and store information
you have to process and store simultaneously
ex: listen to the sentence and say whether it is true or false and what the last word is
not all children with LD have problems with working memory
-language may just be hard for them-may be strictly linguistic in nature

A

articulatory rehearsal mechanism
phonological store
sub vocal speech mechanism that helps people hold on to information they are trying to remember
as the numbers are listed to you you start to loop them in your head, then they go into the store to be somewhat permanent and no longer needs rehearsed
children with LD have problems recycling them and storing for later recall

Q

nonword repetition

A

a sequence of consonants and vowels that have no semantic meaning
we use nonword as a way to asses language disorders
what we typically find out is that people that don’t have language disorders can produce them, but it is very hard for this with a language disorder because it taps into phonological working memory
it is a very sensitive instrument to help us diagnose people with language disorders
highly related to vocabulary development and academic success

Q

SLI (Specific Language Impairment)

A

a language disorder that occurs across a life span where a person will have issues across expressive an/or receptive language, but everything else about the child is normal. No neurological damage, no hearing problems, normal IQ. They do not learn language rapidly or effortlessly
they know what they want to say, they just can’t come up with the right words
problems with morphology and syntax
no exact type of characteristics that all follow
not everyone will manifest the same type of characteristics
more problems with articles, regular past tense, function words
short utterances
they look normal, quiet in the classroom, often go unnoticed “Passive communicators”
Never go away
more difficult to identify because they only have problems with language
Shorter MLU
70-80% are at risk for reading/writing disorders
morphology and syntax disorder
EX:
A- adult
C- child (3.4)
A ok ready
C ready
A this is Jimy tell me a story about Jimmy
him going fishing jim hold…water and go fish and ??
A I didn’t hear this one, what was this one?
C I don’t know
A ok how may more do you think we have

Q

criteria for SLI

A

typically language test scores will be -1.25 SD below the mean or lower
IQ (Nonverbal) 85+
hearing screening pass
no episodes of otitis media
no evidence of seizure disorder (No meds for it), cerebral palsy, brain measures
no structural anomalies
oral motor function within normal limits
No impaired reciprocal social interactions (debated among professionals)
some argue that there is a genetic link (30% with parents or siblings with other or similar language disorders)
only get treatment if they fall below the 10% of disorders so many SLI children do not get treated

Q

SLI Semantics

A

might not produce their first word until 23 months
only 17 words produced at 24 compared to 200 of typically developing children
quantitative and qualitative differences
reduced vocal and difficulty combining words into phrases (semantic relations)
vocab acquisition slower, less lexical diversity
TTR
use the same vocal words over and over, diversity is sparse
less knowledge about word meaning
more exposure is going to be needed to learn words in context
they need the redundancy and repetition to acquire the word
like building up muscles
difficulty retrieving words (word finding)
difficulty with verbs especially

morphosyntactic language***

A

land mark characteristic for children with SLI
make the most significant gains in normal developing children at the age of 3
therefore the overall MLU will e shorter, sentences simpler, difficulty with articles (a,an, the), plural difficulty, pronouns, possessive s, third person singular, copula “is”
difficulty with the preposition, on, irregular past tense, ***unstressed parts of our language that are in short duration less intensity and have lower pitch

fewer acknowledgement
fewer opportunities for joint attention of an object/person
try to gain a listener’s attention at the wrong time
be less responsive to peers attempt to initiate conversations
suddenly switch topics
problems with timing of terms

Q

what does a behavioral goal do

A

they way it is written can force an SLP to implement a certain type of methodology over naturalistic
this can “get us in trouble”
we like to provide a contextualized and supportive environment
makes it challenging for SLP because they have very precise behavior goals but we want to have a more naturalistic approach

69
Q

how do you measure progress/performance

A

the client will produce /p/ initial at the word level in imitation of the clinician with 90% accuracy
one way: clinician provides client with flashcards, provides model, and instructs client to repeat- measure correct vs. incorrect words
but, may not be generalized to conversational speech
need to use probe words
always measure performance on untrained aspects to prove client improvement/generalization of skills

70
Q

probe words

A

a word that you asses performance without treatment
these help asses if generalization to untreated words help
do not treat and measure the same words!

71
Q

Example break down for turn taking

The client will take three turns in a conversation when given a toy to talk about with 90% accuracy

A

client will talk about the toy and play
client will respond to questions about the toy and play
client will ask questions about the toy and play
client will engage in a back and forth conversation taking at least three turns while playing with a toy

72
Q

examples from class of well written goals

A

the client will ask, “May I play with the ___,” with 90% accuracy when given a partial carrier phrase of the utterance and a choice between 3 independent toys.
-measure performance by: providing 3 new toys and only using initial word of partial carrier phrase with the initial carrier word
the client will be able to answer a questions (names of people in the child’s immediate environment) when asked by the clinician and imitate the same question in return with 90% accuracy.
- measure using name you didn’t treat
the client will exhibit turn-talking 3 times in a 2- minute period when conversing with an SLP with 80% accuracy given a verbal prompt
the client will wait to respond for 1 second before responding in 9/10 conversational turns

73
Q

SLI intervention

A

conversational recast plus verbal practice
enhancing working memory
reduce cognitive demands
providing conversation topics and themes using objects
build in pragmatics/social skills
children need a combination of auditory input and some opportunities for verbal output
auditory inputs and models are crucial for receptive and expressive communication disorders

74
Q

language learning

A

is all about auditory input***

and the models that we provide

75
Q

why is auditory input so crucial for language learning

A

two to three times more models are needed for children with SLI
it’s like putting money in the bank, if you put enough in you can take some out

76
Q

Natural reinforcers

A

children learn language through the natural consequences of interacting and talking with others– they learn by recognizing the benefits of communications with others

77
Q

imitating an utterance

A

there is no generalization!
does not help learn, no natural solicitation
will not help those with SLI

78
Q

the holy grail of intervention

A

is not production
SLPs might feel, though, that they are doing more if they can measure the results
but Auditory input is THE most important form of therapy
you only need a little about of practice on production

79
Q

different types of auditory input that facilitate language acquisition and language development

A 
conversation recast
enhanced conversational recast
expand on the child's utterance
self talk
parallel talk
focus stimmulation
80
Q

conversational recast

A

take an as aspect of the child’s original utterance and repeat the utterance with adding grammatical and syntactic information
Ex: Motherese
they need to occur frequently to have impact
poss Mark Fey from Un. kent. speaks on importance of frequency

81
Q

enhanced conversational recast

A

providing an intentional cue:
tapping on the arm and saying the child’s name
or getting in the child’s visual field immediately before recasting the utterance

82
Q

all other forms of auditory input

A

expand on the child’s utterances
we want a high degree of redundancy
utterances should be provided with participation within the environment
child should enjoy the language interaction
provide the child with time to respond “Wait time”
changing intonation, rhythm, intensity, and prosodic features of speech
emphatic stress

83
Q

wait time

A

slow dow to allow time for processing of language before providing recast

84
Q

parallel talk
