Csd Test 2 (Ch 13)

Front 1

Adaptation

Back 1

the percentage of decrease in stuttering when a passage is read multiple times in succession. The percent of reduction is calculated for each repeating reading

Front 2

Chronic stuttering

Back 2

stuttering that continues into adulthood

Front 3

Cluttering

Back 3

a fluency disorder that is characterized by very rapid bursts of disrhythmic, unintelligible speech

Front 4

Consistency

Back 4

the percentage of stuttered words during repeated readings of the same passage

Front 5

Disfluency

Back 5

the flow and ease of speech is disrupted by repetitions, interjections, pauses and revisions

Front 6

Fluency

Back 6

speech that is easy, rapid, rhythmical and evenly flowing

Front 7

Fluency shaping

Back 7

a therapy approach in which the clinician teaches the stutterer a new way of talking that is designed to reduce the likelihood of stuttering

Front 8

Incidence

Back 8

lifetime risk. the percentage of individuals in a given population who report that they have, at one time or another, exhibited a particular disorder or condition

Front 9

Neural plasticity

Back 9

the idea that neurological structures and pathways reorganize themselves and change over time in response to the kinds of experiences a person has.

Front 10

Primary stuttering behaviors

Back 10

within word disfluencies (i.e. repetitions, prolongations, and blocks) that are sometimes referred to as "core behaviors"

Front 11

Prevalence

Back 11

the percentage of individuals in a given population who present a particular disorder or condition at a particular point in time

Front 12

Secondary stuttering behaviors

Back 12

adaptations that stutterers make as they try to get through primary stuttering behaviors or to avoid them altogether. the most common secondary stuttering behaviors are eye blinks, lip pursing, arm movements, and head nods

Front 13

Stuttering

Back 13

an unusual amount of tense, within-word disfluencies that interfere with the continuity of speech

Front 14

Stuttering modification procedures

Back 14

a therapy approach in which the clinician teaches the client to alter the way he or she stutters

Front 15

within-word disfluencies

Back 15

sound repetitions, prolongations or blocks
