CSAD 147 EXAM 3 QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS GRADED A+ 2025/2026
An Assessment of Speech Sound Disorders Enables the Clinician to: - ANS -Describe a client's
current speech abilities
-Compare the client's speech abilities to normal expectation
-Determine the cause, if possible if a speech disorder is possible
-Recommend an appropriate plan for remediation, if needed
-Measure changes over time
Screening - ANS -Purpose: quickly identify normal vs. may have disorder
-Then referred for a complete evaluation
-Does not have to be formal
-There are formal, developed screeners
-Can develop your own screening
Identifying Sound Errors From a Speech Sample- Analyze a speech sample with a focus on the
following behaviors: - ANS -Error types
-Patterns of errors
-Number of errors
-Consistency of errors between speech sample and articulation test, within the same speech
sample, and between different speech samples

, -Correctly produced sounds
-Intelligibility
-Speech rate
-prosody
Stimulability - ANS -Ability to produce correct or improved production of an erred sound
-Assessment of stimulability provides important prognostic information
>Those sounds easily stimulated provide excellent starting points
-Clinician must know what needs to be changed in order to improve production
-Visually observing client's erred productions
-Stimulability probes (there are books to help)
Developmental Norms for Phonemes and Consonant Clusters - ANS -Limitations of
overreliance of developmental norms
<A norm is only an average age at which a behavior occurs - hypothetical child
<True norms are collected from and apply to a normal randomly selected sample
<Different norms are rarely in agreement with each other
-Norms are useful for estimating how well a child's sounds are developing
Descriptive Features of Phonemes - ANS -Manner of Articulation - stops, fricatives, affricate,
glide, liquid, nasal
-Place of Articulation - bilabial, labiodental, dental, alveolar, palatal, velar, glottal
-Vowels :
>Manner of Articulation - high, mid, low
>Place of Articulation - front, center, back
