Middle: t, k, ing, g, f, v, ch, dge

Late: sh, dge, l, r, s, z, th, and clusters

100

What theory is based on underlying rules?

Generative phonology

100

What are some risk factors?

Family history, gender, stuttering trends, duration of the stutter, age of onset, disfluency type, disfluency length

100

What is the purpose of stuttering modification?

To reduce negative reactions, decrease sensitivity, and increase feelings of control

100

In neurogenic stuttering is there secondary behaviors?

No, there are none.

200

What are the most common phonological processes

Cluster reduction, final consonant deletion, gliding, fronting, weak syllable deletion, stopping


200

What theory is based on the segmental and suprasegmentals?

nonlinear phonology 

200

What are stuttering like disfluencies and non-stuttering like disfluencies?

Stuttering like: part/sound/syllable repetitions, blocks, prolongations, breathing

Non-stuttering like: interjections, revisions, and phrase repetitions

200

What is fluency enhancing strategies?

decrease tension, control timing, and to facilitate fluent speech

200

What is the treatment for neurogenic stuttering?

Biofeedback, delayed auditory feedback, and drugs/medical intervention

300

what are the least common phonological processes?

assimilation, devoicing, deaffrication, depalatalization, metathesis, pre-voicing, and epenthesis

300

What are the linguist models

generative phonology, natural phonology, nonlinear phonology, optimality, sonority

300

What is a comprehensive fluency assessment?

1.Fluency count

2.Pressure dialogue

3.awareness, reactions, and struggles

4. Environmental impact

5. Speech/language assessment in three contexts 

300

what are some examples of stuttering modification?

cancellation, pull out, easy stuttering, catching the stutter, relaxing the stutter

300

what events trigger stuttering?

Singing, accent, whispering, and scripts

400

What is manner, place, and voice?

Manner is the degree of constriction

Place is where the constriction of air flow occurs

Voice is if the larynx vibrates or not 

400

What is the behavior model?

It is based on operant conditioning

400

A Verbatim transcription includes what?

Frequency and duration, and the severity of stuttered events

400

What are some example of fluency enhancing strategies?

decreasing the rate, easy onset, light contacts, deep belly breathing, pausing, stretched speech

400

What is recovery look like in psychogenic?

The recovery is typically quick

500

What is an allophone?

"tip" and "little" both have /t/ phonemically the same but sound different

500

There are 4 stages of speech acquisition: 

1.Foundations of speech

2.From words to speech

3.Growth of the inventory

4. Mastery of speech and literacy

500

What are Van Ripers 4 tracks?

Phase I (preschool period)- of little concern 

Phase II (elementary school)- chronic, consider themselves a stutter but no concern

Phase III (late childhood)- CWS anticipate their stuttering and carry negative reactions

Phase IV (adolescence and adulthood)- shame and avoidance, and strong emotional reaction to their listener

500

what stuttering modification promotes awareness of the stutter?

catching the stutter

500

Would neurogenic or psychogenic stutter when singing, speaking in unison, or when using delated auditory feedback?

Psychogenic
