A

Study of the sound system of language- include rules that govern its spoken form

5

A

Difficulties with the motor production aspects of speech or inability to produce certain speech sounds
- Child may not be stimulable for sounds produced in error

6
Q

Phonological disorder

A

Refers to impaired comprehension of the sound system of a language and the rules that govern the sound combinations

Smallest unit within a language that can combine with other units to establish words and distinguish between them

8
Q

Minimal pair

A

Words that differ in only one phoneme

9

A

How phonemes are organized and function in communication

10
Q

Sound segments of a syllable following it’s peak

22
Q

Phonation

A

Sound wave vibration of air produced by the vocal folds

23
Q

Respiration

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
Q

Articulation problem- generally how to provide therapy

A

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
Q

Guy behind structuralist/universalist theory

A

Jakobson

27
Q

Universalist- two distinct periods of vocal production?

A

Babbling and onset of meaningful speech

28
Q

What happens during the babbling period?

A

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
Q

What happens during the onset of meaningful speech period?

A

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
Q

Guys behind behaviorist/learning theory

A

Mowrer and Olmstead

31
Q

Characteristics of behaviorist/learning theory

A

Infant vocalizations are shaped through a series of steps as a consequence of contingent reinforcement

32
Q

Sequence of events in behaviorist/learning theory

A
  • 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
Q

Generative/prosodic components of analysis of a child’s system

A

Adult pronounced form, child’s perceived form, child’s underlying form, phonotactic rules, substitution rules, child’s spoken form

34
Q

Interactionist-Discovery Theory

A

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

A

Phonetic constituents that distinguish between phonemes

36
Q

Use + and - signs to indicate presence or absence of distinctive sound features

37
Q

Universal features

A

Characteristics that exist between the phoneme systems of different languages

38

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
Q

What is ordering?

A

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
Q

Suppression

A

Term used in natural phonology to refer to the abolishment of previously employed phonological processes

41
Q

Nonlinear (Multilinear) Phonologies

A

Single sound segments seen as being governed by more complex linguistic dimensions (stress, intonation, metrical, and rhythmical factors)

42
Q

Autosegmental phonology

A
  • 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

49
Q

Clinical implication of nonlinear phonology

A

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
Q

Why is it important to get a connected speech sample?

A
  • 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
Q

Relational Analysis Def

A

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:

A

Mower believe babbling is an onset of speech, Jakobsen does not

65
Q

What stops happening at 7-10 months in babbling?

A

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
Q

A
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
Q

Quasi resonant nucleus

A

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
Q

Goo and coo

A

Primarily vowel-like sounds with greater resonance. Some consonant-like sounds may be produced. Syllable structure is not present

69
Q

Exploration/Expansion

A

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
Q

Reduplicated babbling

A

Infant produces syllable combinations initially as exactly duplicated CV combinations. More refined consonant vowel sounds appear.

71
Q

Variegated babbling/Inflected vocal play

A

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.
