CSD 315 Final Exam – comprehensive study guide and exam preparation
material
Purpose of phonological testing - correct answer ✔✔Relational analysis
Independent analysis
Relational analysis - correct answer ✔✔Comparing production to an adult production
Independent analysis - correct answer ✔✔Analysis of speech sounds without comparative
target
Inventory of sounds, correct or not correct
Delay - correct answer ✔✔Delay in language acquisition, but still chronologically matches peers
Disorder - correct answer ✔✔Persistence of errors beyond expected age range
Speech screening - correct answer ✔✔QUICK evaluation to see if more comprehensive testing is
needed
Informal screening - correct answer ✔✔Not standardized, tailored to specific issue of interest
Formal screening - correct answer ✔✔Standardized, two types:
1. Instruments designed to screen for speech sound development specifically
2.Instruments designed for more general speech and language screening
,Comprehensive speech sound assessment - correct answer ✔✔More in-depth than screening
measures
Analyses all areas of language
Types of sampling used:
-Connected/conversational speech sampling
-Single word/citation form sampling
-Stimulability testing
-Contextual testing
-Error pattern identification
Connected/conversational speech sampling - correct answer ✔✔Looks at natural/real speech
patterns elicited through conversation, reading, imitation, etc.
Sampling procedure used in comprehensive speech sound assessment
Single word/citation form sampling - correct answer ✔✔Finds speech sound inventory and
evaluates productions through picture naming
Sampling procedure used in comprehensive speech sound assessment
Stimulability testing - correct answer ✔✔Evaluates ability to imitate the correct form of sound
in error to determine therapy level needed
Sampling procedure used in comprehensive speech sound assessment
Contextual testing - correct answer ✔✔Evaluates consistency of errors in different phonetic
contexts through formal and informal tests
, Sampling procedure used in comprehensive speech sound assessment
Error pattern identification - correct answer ✔✔Provides description of overall phonological
system, uses several different measures
Sampling procedure used in comprehensive speech sound assessment
Criteria for selecting phonological instruments (aka sampling styles) - correct answer ✔✔1.
Sample obtained - specific sounds in various contexts obtained through chosen sampling style
2. Material presentation - compactness, manipulability of materials, organization of scoring
sheet
3. Scoring and Analysis - Analysis of place, manner, voice, phonological patterns, phonemes,
position in word, age appropriateness, etc.
Interjudge reliability - correct answer ✔✔Point to point agreement between two judges
regarding accuracy of transcriptions
Intrajudge reliability - correct answer ✔✔Point to point agreement within one judge regarding
accuracy of transcriptions
Assessment procedures - correct answer ✔✔Case history
Oral mechanism exam
Hearing screening
Speech-sound perception testing
Language assessment
