Question Answer
factors contributing to speech disorders -peripheral anatomic problems -neurophysiological problems -hearing loss -linguistic, cultural, familial factors -intellectual disabilities
Articulation disorders -articulation issues can be random, phonologic have a pattern -functional etiology is easier to fix than organic etiology -> in functional, no specific physical pathology explains it. Probably due to faulty learning. -clinician decision> classify the sound errors on individual sound basis, or by phonetic system principles?
Phonological disorder -misarticulations are understood in terms of rule-based patterns -3 phonological processes: 1. syllable structure (like cluster reduction,) substitution (fronting), assimilation (taking one phoneme at one end of a word and moving it to the other)
Place of articulation arfraag
Manner of articulation afraeg
Cerebral Palsy -congenital nonprogressive neuromotor disorder caused by prenatal, perinatal, and postnasal factors -quadriplegia, diplegia, paraplegia, hemiplegia may occur -types of CP: spastic (stiff & jerky), athetoid (slow writhing movement), ataxic (unbalanced), rigid (simul contractions of all muscle groups), mixed (usually spastic + athetoid) -speech characteristics: articulatory, phonatory, respiratory, resonance, prosody
Childhood apraxia of speech -articulatory motor programming disorder. No brain lesion involved. -speech production skills lag behind lang comprehension and cognition -more difficulty w/ complex sound combos -highly inconsistent sound errors!; difficulty with purposeful movements of the articulators
spontaneous speech sample -look at continuous speech -observing under more natural conditions -minimum 50 utterances -compare errors to st assessment -look at speech rate (average is 125-142 wpm)
stimulability -child's correct or improved imitative production of an erred speech sound following clinician's model -used as basis to provide prognostic info -allows clinician to experiment with several tx techniques to determine which ones are more or less effective
Differential Dx of articulation disorder -difficulty limited to a few sounds, purely phonetic, no obvious pattern, no neuromotor control problems, no structural problems
Differential Dx of phonological disorder -multiple speech sound errors that fall into patterns that can be described as one or more phonological processes -these processes are typically absent in peers -significantly reduced intelligibility
Differential dx of dysarthria -diagnosis of CP, neuromotor control problems, speech errors consistent with CNS & PNS injury -speech: disturbed strength, speed, ROM, tone, accuracy
differential dx of hearing impairment and childhood apraxia -HL: audiologic dx, chronic OM, resonance disorders, prosody, voice quality -childhood apraxia: motor incoordination (groping/searching), no muscle weakness
Postassessment counseling -make a tentative diagnosis -make recs -suggest prognosis -answer FAQs
