A. Air conduction
B. Pure tone
C. Bone conduction
D. Speech recognition - ANSWER: A

Rongomaiwhenua was diagnosed with apraxia of speech (AOS). She displays an
inability to imitate or follow commands and perform volitional movements of speech
structures. Recently, she has been diagnosed with nonverbal oral apraxia (NVOA), a
diagnosis that often co-occurs with AOS. With this diagnosis, it can be expected that
a lesion would most likely exist in the:
A. Posterior portion of the insula
B. Frontal and central opercula
C. Third temporal convolution
D. Piriform cortex - ANSWER: B
An infant with a cleft palate will most likely have hearing problems because of
A. aural atresia.
B. an incompletely formed cochlea.
C. eustachian tube dysfunction.
D. malformed ossicles. - ANSWER: C

consciousness?
A. Determine the patient's level of consciousness.
B. Get a sense of the nature and severity of the patient's injuries.
C. Consider environmental conditions.
D. Estimate the patient's physical, behavioral, and cognitive recovery between time
of injury and the time of assessment. - ANSWER: C
Which is not part of the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)?
A. Eye opening
B. Motor responses
C. Verbal responses
D. Range of motion - ANSWER: D
Variations in vocal frequency, or frequency perturbation, are known as
