Question 1
Question
What is SLI?
Answer
-
Specific Language Impairment
-
Speech Language Interruption
-
Slow Language Involvement
Question 2
Question
Specific language impairment is characterized by difficulty with language that is not caused by neurological, sensory, intellectual, or emotional deficit.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 3
Question
Children with SLI often only show deficits in one domain of language.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 4
Question
What is true about specific language impairment?
Answer
-
Approzimately 7.4% of 5-year-olds are affected.
-
There is a 25% chance that another family member also has SLI if a child is diagnosed
-
The majority of children diagnosed will continue with low language performance into adulthood
-
There may be long-term impact on social, emotional, vocational, and academic outcomes.
Question 5
Question
SLI is purely a language disorder.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 6
Question
SLI is universally recognized as a neurobiologically based disorder.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 7
Question
Structural findings: One neuropathological study showed [blank_start]atypical symmetry[blank_end] of the planum temporale, and a dysplastic gyrus on the inferior surface of the [blank_start]left frontal cortex[blank_end] along the ingerior surgace of the sylvian fissure.
Answer
-
atypical symmetry
-
atypical asymmetry
-
asymmetry
-
left frontal cortex
-
right frontal cotex
-
prefrontal cortex
Question 8
Question
Structural MRI scan study: Children with SLI showed [blank_start]atypical[blank_end] patterns of [blank_start]asymmetry[blank_end] in the perisylvian area.
Answer
-
atypical
-
expected
-
asymmetry
-
symmetry
Question 9
Question
Study results: children with SLI were more likely to have rightward asymmetry of posterior language structures.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 10
Question
fMRI results: children with SLI displayed a lack of [blank_start]left[blank_end] lateralization in all core language regions, but not for the rest of the brain
Answer
-
left
-
right
Question 11
Question
fMRI results: Children with SLI showed [blank_start]hypo[blank_end]activation of [blank_start]Wernicke's[blank_end] area
Answer
-
hypo
-
Wernicke's
Question 12
Question
fMRI: the SLI group performed [blank_start]more poorly[blank_end] than the normal language group fro both encoding and recognition
Answer
-
more poorly
-
better
Question 13
Question
fMRI: subjects with SLI had slower reaction times than the control group.
Answer
- True
- False
Question 14
Question
fMRI: the SLI group showed [blank_start]reduced[blank_end] activation during word recognition in regions associated with [blank_start]language[blank_end] processing.
Answer
-
reduced
-
increased
-
language
-
higher order
Question 15
Question
Adolescents with SLI exhibited [blank_start]atypical[blank_end] coordination among brain regions, suggesting that adolescents with SLI may rely on a less [blank_start]functional[blank_end] network for [blank_start]language[blank_end] processing.
Answer
-
atypical
-
functional
-
language
Question 16
Question
When tested after [blank_start]6 months[blank_end] of treatment, children with SLI showed [blank_start]markedly improved[blank_end] speech processing times when compared with pre-treatment processing times.
Answer
-
6 months
-
3 months
-
12 months
-
18 months
-
markedly improved
-
markedly decreased
-
unremarkable
Question 17
Question
What are functional differences in SLI?
Answer
-
reduced activation in Broca's area, auditory areas, and sensory motor areas
-
Atypical/reduced functional connectivity
-
Slower/immature speech processing
Question 18
Question
Structural difference in SLI: Consistent see less left hemisphere dominance, specifically in the planum temporale and pars triangularis
Answer
- True
- False
