QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
Question:
1. Speech sound disorder
Answer:
problems in correctly producing speech sounds
Question:
2. Prevalence of SSD in young children (National Institute of Health 2023)
Answer:
8-9%
Question:
3. Articulation disorder
Answer:
- Purely physical - just can't produce the sound
- Only a few sounds are affected
- No patterns
- Child fairly intelligible
Question:
4. Phonlogical disorder
Answer:
- Multiple sound errors
- Highly unintelligible
- Patterns of errors
- Due to underlying problem with phonological knowledge
Question:
5. Importance of innteligibility
Answer:
- Caseloads—many children with speech sound disorders (SSDs)
- Cases more complex these days—more oral motor involvement
- Reduced intelligibility causes many academic and social problems
Question:
6. Even a mild disorder can have an impact....
Answer:
- My experience - kids afraid to raise their hand and talk in class
- Studies: adults with a mild lisp judged less intelligent
Question:
7. Macrae & Tyler:
,Answer:
- Compared preschool children with co-occurring SSD and language impairment (LI) to children with SSD
only
- Looked at numbers and types of errors in both groups
- Children with SSD and LI had more omissions of sounds than children with just SSD
- SLPs need to be most concerned about children with omissions of sounds; omissions more predictive of
language/reading problems than sound distortions.
Question:
8. Phonetics
Answer:
Study of physical, physiological, and acoustic variables associated with speech sound production
Question:
9. Clinical/Applied phonetics
Answer:
Branch dedicated to practical application of knowledge
Question:
10. Phoneme
Answer:
Family of sounds that the listener perceives as belonging to the same category
Question:
11. Allophone
Answer:
Not a distinct phoneme; allophone is a member of a particular phoneme family
Question:
12. Morphemes
Answer:
- Minimal units of meaning
- Free morpheme: whole word that cannot be linguistically broken down into smaller units
- Bound morpheme: suffix or prefix that attaches to a word to alter the word's meaning.
Question:
13. Minimal pairs
Answer:
Morphemes that are similar except for one phoneme
Question:
14. Juncture
Answer:
Combination of intonation, pausing, and other suprasegmentals to mark special distinctions in speech or
express certain grammatical divisions
, Question:
15. Rate of speech
Answer:
- In rapid speech, decreased vowel duration - called vowel reduction
- Usually, the faster the rate, the less intelligible a person is
- Undershooting - missing articulatory positions as speech rate increases
- Very important to address in therapy
Question:
16. Clear Speech
Answer:
- Longer pauses
- Slower
- Lengthening of some speech sounds
- Stop sounds are made more clearly
Question:
17. MOOSE
Answer:
- Move your lips
- Open your mouth
- Overexaggerate/overenunciate
- Slow down
- Elogongate your vowels
Question:
18. Intonation
Answer:
Changes in pitch contours
Question:
19. Stress
Answer:
The degree of effort, prominence, or importance given to some part of an utterance
Question:
20. Consonants
Answer:
Produced by some narrowing or closing of the vocal tract—complete or partial closure
Question:
21. Vowels
Answer:
Produced with an open vocal tract
Question:
22. Phonemic diphthongs
