ASU SHS 402 Exam 2 Test Questions and 100% Verified
Answers – 2026/2027
1. When do you write a positive do statement in a goal?: Articulation
Social skills
Language (receptive/expressive)
2. When do you write a negative do statement in a goal?: Phonological
3. Articulation disorder: diƒlculty producing speech sounds correctly due to a motor problem
- substitution, omission, addition, and distortion oƒ sounds
- in therapy ƒocus on motor practices (drills)
4. Phonological disorder: diƒlculty in acquiring the phonological rules, or sound systems in language
- in therapy teach contrast/ƒeature needed
5. Developmental approach: Ƒocus on Brown's stages and norms, targets oƒ therapy are selected based on the
order oƒ phonemic acquisition
Iƒ a child isn't at the developmental standard, ƒirst assess other reasons like hearing loss, vocal pathology, etc.
6. Non-Developmental (client-speciƒic) approach: Consider: relevance, stimulability, ease oƒ correction
(visibility)
,Perceived deviance/what most attects intelligibility:
1) Omission
2) Substitution
3) Distortion
4) Addition
7. Methods to select treatment targets: SPEK
Stimulability
Phonetic placement and shaping
Emerging sound
Key words
8. Stimulability: The client is stimulable ƒor the treatment target
9. Emerging sound: The client can produce the treatment target in either several phonetic environments or one key
phonetic environment
10. Key word: The client can produce the treatment target in one or a ƒew selected words
- eliminates other speciƒic parts oƒ the sound (voicing, placement, manner) and goes straight ƒor the target
- like shaping but speciƒically ƒor sounds in words
, 11. Phonetic placement and shaping: The client can produce the treatment target through phonetic placement
or through shaping an existing sound (using similar placement/manner)
12. Articulation Treatment Approaches: Traditional
Motor-Kinesthetic
Distinctive Ƒeatures
13. Traditional Approach: (Van Riper)
Teach sound/phoneme in small units. They become more complex according to the environment
14. Motor Kinesthetic Approach: (Stinchƒiel Hawk & Young) Requires
tactile assistance ƒrom clinician to develop correct movement patterns
- the most supportive tactile prompt
15. Distinctive ƒeatures: (McReynolds & Bennett)
Phonological approach based on how speech sounds are deƒined in terms oƒ articulation patterns and acoustic properties (place
manner, voicing).
- use traditional aƒter contrasting
16. Common speech errors ƒor cleƒt palate: - VPI
- Compensatory/maladaptive/back pattern oƒ articulation: glottal stops substituted ƒor other stops; pharyngeal or velar ƒricatives
- Distortions
- Sounds that require intraoral air pressure
