Phonological disorder
Who typically makes the referral for an evaluation?
The parent, caregiver, pediatrician, teacher, etc.
Tests child’s ability to imitate a sound with cueing
Stimulability
What is an example of a sensory/perceptual SSD?
Hearing impairment
Phonological v. articulation: Difficulty usually occurs with individual sounds resulting in distortions
Articulation disorder
When generating a phonetic inventory from a child, is it important that the child produces the target words correctly?
No, we only care about what they CAN produce
This exam determines if the anatomy and physiology of a child is typical for age of development
Oral mechanism examination

4,8
Apraxia is a neurological disorder affecting ____ while dysarthria is an organic motor disorder that affects ____
planning; execution
Difference v. disorder: T/F All sound substitutions and omissions are speech errors (explain reasoning)
False;We see the same patterns in typically developing children, but symptoms are more severe or persist longer in children with SSDs
Based on the following productions, calculate the minimum sonority distance that the child is able to produce:
clean /klin/
sweet /swit/
track /tɹæk/
sport /spɔɹt/
kw=6
sw=5
tr=5
sp=-2
