Communication

includes all means by which information is transmitted between a sender and a receiver

Model of communication

Speech

The oral production of the sounds, sound patterns, and intonations of a language

Speech subsystems

Language

A code that consists of a set of symbols and the knowledge about how to combine those symbols into words, sentences, and texts in order to convey ideas

Hearing

The process and function of perceiving sound

Ear anatomy

Outer, middle, inner

Speech chain

Speech disorders

Stuttering (fluency), articulation, voice, swallowing

Causes of speech disorders

Structural abnormalities, phonological disorders, accident or disease

Hearing disorders

Conductive


Sensorineural


Mixed


Auditory processing disorder

Stuttering

an interruption in the rhythm of speech characterized by hesitations, repetitions, or prolongations of sounds, syllables, words, or phrases

Articulation disorder

Difficulties with the way sounds are formed and strung together usually characterized by substituting, omitting, or distorting a sound

Voice disorders

Inappropriate pitch, loudness, or quality (harsh, hoarse, breathy, nasal)

Conductive hearing loss

Sound is not conducted efficiently through the outer/middle ear, causing speech and other sounds to be heard less clearly or to sound muffled. Can be medically or surgically corrected

Sensorineural hearing loss

Damage to inner ear or never pathways to brain. Certain sound heard less than others causing reduced understanding of speech, usually not correctable (hearing aid, other amp device)

Mixed hearing loss

Combination of conductive and sensorineural hearing loss

Causes of hearing disorders

Language disorders

Developmental


Reading


Acquired

Developmental disorder

A noticeable slowness in the development of the vocabulary and grammar necessary for expressing and understand thoughts and ideas

Reading disorder

Impaired language comprehension and/or production that significantly interferes with socialization and educational success

Acquired disorder

Language impairments caused by brain legions, often resulting from stroke or head injury

Larynx functions

Produce voice (phonation)


Guarding airway

Female vocal folds

Freq 200-250


Shorter, lighter

Tongue


Oral cavity


Mandible


Epiglottis


Oropharynx


Vocal folds


Thyroid cartilage


Cricoid cartilage


Trachea


Laryngopharynx

Male vocal folds

Freq 100-150


Longer, heavier


Slower vibrations

Abduction

Open airways (apart)

Adduction

Close airways (together)

Responsible for abduction and adduction

Arytenoid, Cricoid cartilages and their attached muscles

Vocal folds

False folds: lie above true folds and only come together with considerable exertion


True folds: vibrate fit phonation

Glottis

Space between vocal folds

Process of phonation

Abduct vocal folds


Deep inhalation


Adduct vocal folds


Sibglottal air pressure build up


Vocal folds blown apart

Sound waves

Sine


Complex


Random

Phone

Speech sound

Phoneme

The smallest sound unit of speech represented by a ipa symbol

Prosody

Tempo


Rhythm


Intonation

Articulation disorders

Substitutions


Omissions


Distortions


Additions

Phonetic disorder

A disorder characterized by problems learning the phonetic knowledge of language


Learning correct motor movements


Speech/functional disorder

Learning based disorder

Errors are similar to developmental errors of younger children

Phonetic disorders

Learning how to make sounds

Phonological

Learning how to use the sounds in language

Phonological processes

Ollers stages of early speech development

0 weeks- produces reflexive, vegetative sounds


4 months-vowel like sounds


7 months- canonical babbling


10 months- protowords, jargon


12 months- first words

Dysarthria

A group of motor speech disorders caused by weakness paralysis, slowness, incoordination,or sensory loss in a muscle group responsible for speech


Due to neurological damage to CNS/PNS


Causes: Parkinson's, Huntington's, ALS, myasthenia gravis

Dysarthria common characteristics

Imprecise articulation


Changes in prosody


Poor oral motor coordination


Changes in resonance


Poor control over pitch, stress, rhythm

Verbal apraxia

A motor speech disorder characterized by poor motor planning of the movements needed for speech


Inconsistent errors

Developmental dysarthria

Speech disorder caused by neuromuscular impairment


Lesion in CNS


Paralysis, paresis


Not specific to speech


Most common cause cerebral palsy

Developmental dysarthria common characteristics

Inability to produce subglottal pressure


Voice often harsh and breathy


Poor velar movement, leads to hypernasality

Childhood apraxia of speech

Due to unidentified neurological differences with possible genetic bases


Severe speech sound system disorder

CAS characteristics

Frequent omissions


Inconsistent articulation errors

Velopharyngeal insufficiency


Malocclusion

Disfluencies

Diagnosogenic theory

Normal disfluency


parents react negatively


Children become self conscious of speech


Stuttering becomes a learned behavior

Language basis theory

Linguistic aspects of direct l speech affect occurrence of stuttering


Begins when children are in stage of learning complete sentences

Capacity and demand theories

Initial faster rate of articulation is taxing to the speech production mechanism

Developmental stuttering

-Gradual onset


-Secondary characteristics


-Limited eye contact


-Disfluencies initial position words and utterances


-avoidance, anxiousness


-situation dependent
