Robin (11;6 years) has difficulty clearly articulating the /r/ in her name. She says [wɑbɪn] instead of /rɑbɪn/. An articulation assessment revealed that Robin derhotacized /r, ɝ, ɚ/. No other speech production errors were detected. Robin has no prior history of speech, language or literacy difficulties. In light of these observations, Robin most likely has:
articulation impairment
SODA analysis involves analyses of:
substitution, omission, distortion, addition errors
A Class II Malocclusion is also called:
Distoclusion
An SLP performs an oral-mechanism examination on her friend. Upon visual inspection of the hard palate, she finds a bony growth. The terminology used for this bony growth is:
Torus Palatinus
An independent analysis is
Used to describe the speech of young children independently of the adult standard
The suprasegmental inventory includes the following:
stress, intonation, pitch, loudness
What type of information is collected for an independent analysis?
The inventory of speech sounds, the inventory of syllable shapes, the use of any constraints on sound sequences
A tongue that is normal size in an oral cavity that is too small is called
Relative macroglossia
What syndrome would include hemihyperplasia and is classified as an overgrowth syndrome?
Beckwith- Wiedemann
Depending on a child's symptoms, childhood dysarthria may be classified as:
flaccid, spastic, hyperkinetic, hypokinetic, ataxic, or mixed
Why is it important to administer a spontaneous speech sample during an evaluation?
To assess the client's speech in a variety of contexts
When administering an oral-mechanism examination, upon visual inspection the SLP observes a whitish color that is present along the border of the hard and soft palates. This could be a symptom of what?
Submucus cleft
The most common speech sound error seen in individuals with tongue thrust:
Sibilant distortions
Which type of occlusion is likely to have the most detrimental effect on speech?
Class III
The most common type of SSD has:
no known origin
Most speech-language pathologists' perspective (as well as most other researchers) regarding speech and ankyloglossia is that a frenulectomy:
Is rarely indicated for speech reasons unless it is very severe or there are concomitant oral motor problems
What is a malocclusion called where individual teeth may be crowded, missing, atypical size or in open bite relationship (infraversion, supraversion)?
Neutroclussion
Purposes of Assessment
-Describe the phonetic proficiency of the individual
-Determine if the sound system deviates from the norm
-Determine direction, form, and frequency of Rx
-Make prognostic statements
Syllable Structure Analysis-
assesses client's ability to maintain syllable structure when producing a word
Stampe's Natural Phonology
explains the orderly development of the phonological system in children on the basis of naturalness theories
Bifid uvula
When the uvula is split in half, resulting in the appearance of 2 uvulas
Functional Assessment
a comprehensive process that measures an individual's ability to perform tasks and activities, often related to daily living or specific roles like work or school
