Introduction
The two professions of CSD
What are speech-language pathology and audiology?
A complex tissue with attachments to the thyroid cartilage in the front, and the arytenoid cartilages in the back
What are the vocal folds?
The magnitude of displacement of a sound wave
What is amplitude?
The area of the brain that connects Broca's and Wernicke's areas
What is the arcuate fasciculus?
The term that describes WHERE in the vocal tract air is being constricted to produce a consonant sound
What is place of articulation?
The level of education required to enter the field of Audiology
What is a doctorate?
The length of time spent on expiration during speech as compared to during resting breathing.
What is longer?
The number of cycles of a sound wave per second
What is frequency?
The area of the brain primarily responsible for PRODUCTION of language
What is Broca's area?
The medium that sound moves through most quickly
What is gas?
ASHA
What is the national organization for SLPs and audiologists?
The process of: air pressure inside the lungs is lower than atmospheric pressure; therefore, air rushes into the lungs from a region of higher pressure to a region of lower pressure
What is inhalation?
The perceptual correlate of amplitude
What is loudness/volume?
Neurons that carry information from the peripheral nervous system to the central nervous system
What are sensory neurons?
When the size of a container decreases, the pressure inside that container...
What is increases?
An industrial audiologist may work here
What is a factory?
The name for when the vocal folds are together
What is adduction?
The perceptual correlate of frequency
What is pitch?
The part of the neuron that receives a signal from other neurons
What is the dendrite?
How the shape of the oral and pharyngeal cavities modify the sound wave that originates at the vocal folds
What is source-filter theory?
An exchange of meaning between a sender and receiver.
What is communication?
Consonants that require airflow through the velopharyngeal port and nasal cavity
What are nasal consonants?
What is a speech signal?
The brain's ability to reorganize neural pathways following an injury
What is neuroplasticity?
A cranial nerve that is important for speech and language
What is facial(7)/trigeminal(5)/vagus(10)/hypoglossal(12)?
