QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
When do you write a positive do statement in a goal? - CORRECT
ANSWERS Articulation
Social skills
Language (receptive/expressive)
When do you write a negative do statement in a goal? - CORRECT
ANSWERS Phonological
Articulation disorder - CORRECT ANSWERS difficulty producing speech sounds
correctly due to a motor problem
- substitution, omission, addition, and distortion of sounds
- in therapy focus on motor practices (drills)
Phonological disorder - CORRECT ANSWERS difficulty in acquiring the
phonological rules, or sound systems in language
- in therapy teach contrast/feature needed
Developmental approach - CORRECT ANSWERS Focus on Brown's stages and
norms, targets of therapy are selected based on the order of phonemic acquisition
If a child isn't at the developmental standard, first assess other reasons like hearing loss, vocal
pathology, etc.
Non-Developmental (client-specific) approach - CORRECT ANSWERS Consider:
relevance, stimulability, ease of correction (visibility)
Perceived deviance/what most affects intelligibility:
1) Omission
2) Substitution
3) Distortion
, 4) Addition
Methods to select treatment targets - CORRECT ANSWERS SPEK
Stimulability
Phonetic placement and shaping
Emerging sound
Key words
Stimulability - CORRECT ANSWERS The client is stimulable for the treatment target
Emerging sound - CORRECT ANSWERS The client can produce the treatment target
in either several phonetic environments or one key phonetic environment
Key word - CORRECT ANSWERS The client can produce the treatment target in one
or a few selected words
- eliminates other specific parts of the sound (voicing, placement, manner) and goes straight
for the target
- like shaping but specifically for sounds in words
Phonetic placement and shaping - CORRECT ANSWERS The client can produce the
treatment target through phonetic placement or through shaping an existing sound (using
similar placement/manner)
Articulation Treatment Approaches - CORRECT ANSWERS Traditional
Motor-Kinesthetic
Distinctive Features
Traditional Approach - CORRECT ANSWERS (Van Riper)
Teach sound/phoneme in small units. They become more complex according to the
environment
Motor Kinesthetic Approach - CORRECT ANSWERS (Stinchfiel Hawk & Young)
