Q

Definition of co-articulation

A

sounds overlap one another during articulation

e.g., the /t/ of tea is produced with lips drawn back, but the /t/ of too is produced with lip rounding

Q

Definition of assimilation

A

the features of one sound take on the features of neighboring sounds

(e.g., the vowel in man is nasalized because of the influence of the nasal consonants around it)

28
Q

Definition of alphabetic code

A

the relationship between the letters of the alphabet and the sounds they represent

29
Q

Definition of grapheme-phoneme correspondence

A

the sound-symbol relationship

30
Q

Definition of phonics

A

the instruction children receive to help them learn about sound-symbol relationships

31
Q

Definition of phonological awareness

A

the child’s awareness of how running speech can be broken into smaller phonological components, such as wards, syllables, phonemes

32
Q

true or false: all vowels are voiced

A

true

33
Q

true or false: reading is auditory

A

true

34
Q

name two major indicators of a defective phonological system

A

inaccurate representations of individual phonemes or groups of phonemes

ineffective organization of phonemes within the larger phonological system

35
Q

four major symptoms associated with a faulty phonological system

A

Expressive Phonology

Phonological Awareness

Verbal Working Memory

Word Learning and Word Retrieval

36
Q

Definition of expressive Phonology

A

difficulties in producing specific speech sounds

37
Q

Definition of phonological Awareness

A

a lack of sensitivity to the phonological units of spoken language

38
Q

Definition of verbal Working Memory

A

difficulties processing and storing linguistic information, such as holding a sentence in working memory so that its meaning can be processed

39
Q

Definition of Word Learning and Word Retrieval

A

problems accessing and retrieving words from the language system in which words are organized as phonological representations.

40
Q

Definition of developmental phonological disorder

A

an impairment of the phonological system sufficient to impact speech intelligibility with onset prior to 9 years of age

41
Q

Definition of non-developmental speech disorder

A

onset after 9 years of age, perhaps as a result of illness, trauma, or accident

42
Q

Definition of speech difference

A

speech-sound distinctions attributable to linguistic or cultural factors

43
Q

three descriptive subtypes of speech disorders

A

speech delay

questionable residual errors

residual errors

44
Q

Definition of speech delay

A

children between 2 and 9 years with poor intelligibility and high frequency of errors in speech production

45
Q

Definition of questionable residual errors

A

children between 6 and 9 years whose subtle errors do not affect intelligibility

46
Q

Definition of residual errors

A

children older than 9 years who persist in making speech errors

47
Q

five etiology subtypes of speech disorders

A

phonological disorder: unknown origin

phonological disorder: otitis media with effusion

phonological disorder: special populations

motor speech disorders (and mild functional disorders)

psychosocial involvement

48
Q

defining characteristics of phonological Disorders of Unknown Origin

Phonological analysis

61
Q

record and analyze a representative sample of the child’s speech

62
Q

Definition of probing

A

used to determine stimulability for individual sounds

63
Q

Definition of stimulability

A

how much and what kind of support is needed for the child to produce the sound correctly

64
Q

what three things are needed to diagnose a phonological disorder?

A

the child’s phonological system is developing at a rate sufficiently different from age-based expectations

the phonological differences are not accounted for by cultural or linguistic factors such as dialect

the phonological difference has an impact on the child’s ability to effectively communicate for social or academic purposes

65
Q

compare: articulatory therapy vs phonological therapy

A

teaching articulatory movements vs teaching phonological rules

66
Q

three principles of phonologically oriented approaches

A

phonological processes or rules are treated

efforts to enhance language and communication are included

contrasts between phonemes are emphasized

67
Q

three points to target selection

A

Target errors or patterns that most affect intelligibility

Target sounds or patterns that are stimulable and not stimulable

Follow developmental norms and select early-acquired sounds and patterns then select later-acquired sounds and patterns

68
Q

Definition of short-term normalization

A

articulate speech is achieved before 6 years of age

69
Q

Definition of long-term normalization

A

articulate speech is achieved after 6 years of age
