Atypical Disfluencies
37
Oral motor exercises should not be included in the treatment of what neurogenic communication disorder and why?
Dysarthria because there is no research to support it.
38
The 3 pairs of vocal folds include:
True Vocal Folds, Aryepiglottic Folds, and Ventricular (False) Folds
39
If the intended word is "fork" and the patient says "lork", this is what type of paraphasia?
Phonemic Paraphasia
40
If the intended word is "fork" and the patient says "spoon," this is what type of paraphasia?

TRUE
44
Wave-like motion of vocal fold cover that is necessary for vibration to create phonation
Mucosal Wave
45
What causes the change in pressures that pulls the vocal folds together?
The Bernoulli Effect (the speed of air increases and "sucks" vocal folds together to close them)
