There are two key evaluative tasks that are appropriate to assess ataxic dysarthria: ____ and ____ ....
Speech AMRs

Reading, conversational speech, and repeating sentences containing numerous multisyllabic words
: Patients with this dysarthria will be unable to sustain a steady rhythm as they repeat the target sound

to evaluate irregular articulatory breakdowns.
Tx for Prosody:
Reciting syllables to a metronome using familiar passages;
Finger or hand tapping while reciting a familiar passage;
Cued reading material using visual cues for reading sentences or paragraphs.
RC = R/F/C
Tx for Stress and Intonation:
Contrastive stress drills using clinician questions and patient answers emphasizing appropriate stress on target words;
Pitch range exercises using singing and printed materials with up and down arrows;
CSD/PRE
Tx for Articulation Errors: (4)
Intelligibility drills (Previously discussed)
Phonetic placement in which the clinician instructs the patient about correct placement of the articulators for a target phoneme;
Exaggerated consonants (previously discussed)
Minimal contrast drills (previously discussed).
