Define motherese - ANS ✔✔conversation from mother to child that has higher pitch, hyper
articulation, greater range in frequencies, longer duration, exaggerated facial expression/lip
movements. It helps children segment words and learn to produce sounds.
Why is understanding "normal" speech sound acquisition important? list reasons. - ANS ✔✔it is
very relevant for an SLP to understand typical speech acq for purposes of referral, assessment,
analysis, diagnosis (determining whether a delay or disorder is present), selecting intervention
targets, doing intervention and prepping for dismissal
what are the early 8 sounds? - ANS ✔✔m,n,w,p,d,b,j,h
What are the middle 8 sounds? - ANS ✔✔k,g,t,f,v,ing, ch, j
what are the late 8 sounds? - ANS ✔✔s, sh, z, 3, th, th, l, r
What are the most common phonological measures? - ANS ✔✔final c deletion
reduplication
cluster reduction
unstressed syllable deletion
stopping
prevocalic voicing
final c devoicing
liquid gliding
fronting
depalatization
, deaffrication
harmony
Name three common standardized single-word phonological/articulation assessments - ANS
✔✔1) Goldman-Fristoe
2) Bankson- Bernthal
3) Arizona Articulation
Name 3 of the 4 ways a connected speech sample can be collected - ANS ✔✔1) engage a client
in spontaneous speech
2) have client read a passage (grandfather or rainbow)
3) client listens to a story and is then asked to retell it
4) have a client tell a story based on pictures or toys
If a clinician is unsure of his/her transcription abilities, what are two options he/she has for
collecting thorough speech sample? - ANS ✔✔-inter and intrajudge reliability
-auditory perceptual judgements (aerodynamic measures/ spectrographic analysis,
PRATT{computer program for acoustic segment analysis})
List the pros of spontaneous conversational speech samples compared to single word speech
samples - ANS ✔✔-allow transcription for many contexts
-observe error patterns
-judge severity of the problem/intelligibility
-most valid and representative sample of phono perf
-norm referenced
-efficient
-can get initial, medial and final looks at it
