Q

What are compensatory/maladaptive errors?

10

A
  • Glottal stop
  • Mid-dorsum palatal stop
  • Pharyngeal fricative
  • Pharyngeal stop
  • Velar fricative
  • Posterior nasal fricative
  • Anterior nasal fricative
  • Lateral air escape
  • Nasal sniff
  • Backing
2
Q

How is a glottal stop produced?

How is this related to vocal folds?

A

Produced with a forceful adduction of the vocal folds and the buildup of air pressure under the glottis

Ventricular folds (false vocal folds) can often approximate with the forceful closure of true folds.

3
Q

What is the definition of a glottal stop?

A
  • vocal folds are suddenly opened, releasing the air pressure to produce a grunt type sound
4
Q

How is a posterior nasal fricative produced?

A

Produced with back of tongue articulating against the velum as for the production of /ng/

5
Q

What is the process to make a posterior nasal fricative?

2

A
  • Air pressure builds in the pharynx and pushes the velopharyngeal valve open
  • Results in a loud, friction sound for specific consonant sounds
6
Q

What can a posterior nasal fricative be due to?

2

A

due to difficulties with hearing

- PNF allows sound to be amplified

7
Q

How is an anterior nasal fricative produced?

What often accompanies anterior nasal fricatives?

A
  • Produced by constricting air in the anterior nares

- Often accompanied by a nasal grimace

8
Q

How are pharyngeal stops made?

2

A
  • Base of the tongue moves backward to articulate against the posterior pharyngeal wall
    • Dorsum of the tongue is concave and low in the oral cavity
9
Q

What are the pharyngeal stops usually substituted with?

A

velars (k,g)

10
Q

How difficult is a pharyngeal stop to produce?

2

A

difficult to produce this phoneme

  • results in longer duration than usual between the consonant and the vowel
11
Q

How is a pharyngeal fricative produced?

2

A
  • Tongue is retracted so the base of the tongue approximates, but does not touch the pharyngeal wall
  • Friction sound occurs as the air pressure is forced between the small opening between the base of the tongue and pharyngeal wall
12
Q

How is a mid dorsum palatal stop produced?

A
  • Produced when the dorsum of the tongue articulates against the palate
13
Q

What can a mid dorsum palatal stop be substituted with?

A

lingual-alveolars (t, d, n, l) and velar (k, g, and ng)

14
Q

What can a mid dorsum palatal stop be caused by?

3

A
  • Crowding in the oral cavity (due to a class III malocclusion)
  • Anterior crossbite, deep bite or low palatal arch
  • An attempt to compensate for a fistula
15
Q

How can a velar fricative be produced?

2

A
  • Produced with the back of the tongue in the same position as for the production of a /y/ sound
  • Friction occurs as air is forced through that small opening between back of tongue and velum
16
Q

What is lateral air escape typically due to?

A

typically due to dental arch malformations

17
Q

What does lateral air escape cause?

A
  • Causes airstream from sibilant sounds to be lateralized/distorted
18
Q

In regards to lateral air escape, when is treatment required?

A

treatment required if airflow is lateral

19
Q

How is a nasal sniff produced?

A

Produced by a forcible inspiration through the nose

20
Q

What is a nasal sniff usually substituted with?

A

sibilant sounds, particularly the /s/, in the final word position

21
Q

What is backing?

2

A
  • There is an attempt to valve for articulation where there is maximum air pressure, before the air pressure is lost through the velopharyngeal port
  • Phonemes are produced with the back of the tongue against the velum or against the posterior pharyngeal wall
22
Q

What is babbling used as?

A
  • Commonly used as an attempt to compensate for a oronasal fistula or used to “elevate” palate to attempt to obtain pressure
