A
Provides air flow. In order to speak you must have a breath stream
24
Q
Resonance
A
Created by varying the oral cavity/change shape of oral cavity/change size of vocal tract- modify sound waves
Through moving the articulators, you can change resonances by interfering with the air flow
25
Articulation problem- generally how to provide therapy
One phoneme at a time. Treatment includes:
Auditory discrimination, behavior modification, stimulus/response, behavior management, operant conditioning- when child performs the operation, give him/her a reward
26
Guy behind structuralist/universalist theory
Jakobson
27
Universalist- two distinct periods of vocal production?
Babbling and onset of meaningful speech
28
What happens during the babbling period?
Infant produces a great quantity and diversity of sounds, produces diverse sound without any regular sequence of acquisition,
discontinuity- infant must relearn speech sounds- babbling not considered continuous with phonemic development
29
What happens during the onset of meaningful speech period?
Infant develops his/her language's phonological system according to a hierarchical, universal, and innate order of acquisition
Infants learn oppositions/contrasts of decreasing magnitude expressed in distinctive features
30
Guys behind behaviorist/learning theory
Mowrer and Olmstead
31
Characteristics of behaviorist/learning theory
Infant vocalizations are shaped through a series of steps as a consequence of contingent reinforcement
32
Sequence of events in behaviorist/learning theory
- Infant attends to caretaker's vocalizations during nurturing
- Caretaker's speech takes on secondary reinforcement patterns
- Infant's own vocalizations take on secondary reinforcing values
- Infant productions which closely resemble caretaker's speech selectively reinforced by caretaker and infant
33
Generative/prosodic components of analysis of a child's system
Adult pronounced form, child's perceived form, child's underlying form, phonotactic rules, substitution rules, child's spoken form
34
Interactionist-Discovery Theory
Phonological acquisition is the result of a child's active discovery of patterns in the input language
Child uses these patterns to attack new words, while at the same time adult input is examined for new structures
Child is capable of inventing a set of phonological rules designed to reduce the complexity of target words to a pronounceable level
35
Distinctive features
Phonetic constituents that distinguish between phonemes
36
Binary systems
Use + and - signs to indicate presence or absence of distinctive sound features
37
Universal features
Characteristics that exist between the phoneme systems of different languages
38
Distinctive feature analysis
Sound substitution can be specified according to presence or absence of distinctive features between the target sound and the substitution. Can also be used to document patterns of errors
39
What is ordering?
Another step in gradual revision of the phonological system from its innate state to the adult form:
Sue and zoo realized as /tu/
Then the pattern changes to /tu/ for Sue and /du/ for zoo
40
Suppression
Term used in natural phonology to refer to the abolishment of previously employed phonological processes
41
Nonlinear (Multilinear) Phonologies
Single sound segments seen as being governed by more complex linguistic dimensions (stress, intonation, metrical, and rhythmical factors)
42
Autosegmental phonology
- Nonlinear phonological theory proposed by John Goldsmith's attempts to characterize changes within the boundary of a segment by factoring them out, putting them into a different tier
- Autosegmental refers to the concept that certain segments are autonomous; they do not have a one-to-one match on another level.
43
Tiers
Separable and independent levels representing a sequence of articulatory gestures or a set of acoustic features
44
Association lines
Indicators for connections between autosegmentals on different tiers
45
Linkage condition
Any condition governing the association of units on each tier. E.g. A segment not linked to a position on another tier, will not be phonetically realized. Characterizes the association of units on each tier
46
Skeleton (or CV) tier
Represents a syllable and its hierarchically related components onset and rhyme
47
Onset
Label for all segments of a syllable before its nucleus
48
Rhyme
Cover term for syllable nucleus and coda
49
Clinical implication of nonlinear phonology
Sound segments no longer seen as independent, sequentially arranged sound units of equal value, but as segments hierarchically influenced by other, linguistically more complex dimensions
50
Why is it important to get a connected speech sample?
- Main goal of phonological therapy is correct production of sounds in spontaneous conversation
- Connected speech samples allow one to observe phoneme production in a variety of contexts
- Speech sound errors are often variable and inconsistent and it has been suggested that sounds are often easier to produce in some contexts as opposed to others
51
Relational Analysis Def
Most commonly used type of analysis. Involves comparing the client's production to the target forms seen in the adult standard. Focus is identification of sounds produced in error and or error patterns based on comparison of the client's productions to the adult form. Includes assessment of:
Articulatory mastery
Distinctive features
Analysis of phonological processes
52
Clipping
Long vowels and diphthongs tend to be shortened before voiceless consonants /p/, /t/, /k/, /f/
53
Vowel feature change def
Involve the substitution or merging of one or more of the vowel features of height, frontness, tenseness, or lip rounding
54
Complexity change def
Involves diphthongization of monophthongs
55
Vowel harmony
Involve errors in multisyllabic words where one vowel changes in order to share one or more features with another vowel in the word
56
Vowel backing
Vowel is replaced with a more posterior vowel
57
Vowel lowering
A vowel is replaced with a vowel made with a lower tongue position
58
Vowel raising
A wel is replaced with a vowel made with a higher tongue position
59
Centralization
Vowel replaced by a vowel with a more central tongue position
60
Vowel unrounding
A normally rounded vowel is replaced with a non-rounded vowel boat--> /bat/
61
Diphthongization
Monopthong is produced as a diphthong
62
Diphthong reduction
Diphthong produced as a monophthong
63
Complete vowel harmony
One vowel is changed so that two vowels in a word are the same. Vowels can also assimilate to tenseness or height
coffee-->kiri
office /afas/
64
Why do Mower and Jakobsen disagree on the significance of babbling?
Mower believe babbling is an onset of speech, Jakobsen does not
65
What stops happening at 7-10 months in babbling?
Child begins to stop using sounds that aren't in the adult model, child uses more vowels than consonants, deaf children's babbling decreases due to the lack of auditory feedback
66
What are Oller's stages of Phonological Acquisition?
```
0-1 month: Quasi-resonant nucleus
2-3 months: Goo and coo
4-6 months: Exploration/Expansion
7-10 months: Reduplicated babbling
11-14 months: Variegated babbling/inflected vocal play
```
67
Quasi resonant nucleus
Infant produces oral sounds that are only partially resonated, due to the inability to open her mouth, direct position of tongue, and sustain vocalizations
68
Goo and coo
Primarily vowel-like sounds with greater resonance. Some consonant-like sounds may be produced. Syllable structure is not present
69
Exploration/Expansion
Infant produce alterations of consonant-like and vowel like vocalizations. True syllable structure (CV and VC) emerges. Differentiation of consonant like vocalizations begins with /k/ or /g/, /p/ or /b/, and raspberries. Pitch and volume experimentation occurs.
70
Reduplicated babbling
Infant produces syllable combinations initially as exactly duplicated CV combinations. More refined consonant vowel sounds appear.
71
Variegated babbling/Inflected vocal play
Infant produces strings of syllables with variations of intonation patterns and stress patterns. These resemble adult-like sentences but contain few if any real words. Phonemes and words of native language emerge.
72
Long term goals should take into account
baseline behaviors, factors hypothesized to maintain disorder
73
Short term goals should take into account
Contributes most to intelligibiity, affects more sounds
74
What are the three phases of treatment?

79
Maintenance phase
Phase where client habituates the target behavior and assumes increased responsibility for self-monitoring
80
According to the ____, children are innately equipped with universal processes which change or delete phonological units. Children must suppress those which do not occur in the target language.
Natural phonology theory
81
According to the ___, children’s phonology is gradually shaped from babbling by primary reinforcers in the form of caretaker nurturing and secondary reinforcement in the form of reinforcements of those sounds that match those in the environment.
Behaviorist model
82
According to the __, children are born with a phonological representational framework and tier association principles. However, phonological input is required in order to confirm the universal representation by matching it and learn the less universal phonological aspects of language.
Non-linear model
