Articulation refers to
Motor movements involved in the production of speech
3)Phonology
Rules of constraints and use of speech sound system
4)Stimulability
How readily the client can produce the correct version of the error sounds
5)During speech assessment, Emily sometimes “puck”instead of of “duck” and “fum” instead of “thumb”. SLP labeled these errors as:
Substitution Errors
6)When naming her colors, Emily said “gwee” “bwo” and “bwa” instead of green brown and black. What types of errors:
Substitution and Omissions
7)Speech intelligibility refers to:
The ease at which listeners understand the speaker’s speech
8)Normative data on speech development reflect lists of ages at which consonants are expected to be produced correctly:
True
9)A SLP will screen the speech of all 1st graders in his 2 assigned schools. Based on previous research, he may expect to find:
More fluency disorders among boys than girls
10)Maria is a 15 yr old student who exhibits moderate stuttering. She has had speech therapy in elementary and middle school. Still her stuttering increases when she:
Speaks on the phone
11) Many children exhibit stuttering behaviors during preschool years. A number of these children become fluent speakers w/out treatment. Those that do recover from stuttering w/out treatment will probably do so by the age of:
4 yrs old
12)Excessive eye blinking while speaking may be an accessory activity of stuttering T/F
True
13)Experts have reached a consensus on the nature and cause of stuttering T/F
False
14) Baby Sam presented with strident breathing and high pitch crying with hoarse vocal quality at birth. Transnasal endoscopic examination revealed a membranous tissue extending from one vocal fold to the other. The diagnosis
Laryngeal Web
15)Voice disorders occur only in adults
False
One goal of voice assessment/evaluation is to provide a direction for voice therapy. T/F
True
Four year old Carrie presented with moderate breathy dysphonia. Endoscopic examination revealed multiple glistening, pinkish whit irregular masses located on the right side of the pharyngeal wall, the right regions of the epiglottis, the right region of the thyroid cartilage and the right region of the vocal fold. The medical diagnosis was probably
Papilloma
Vocal nodules can be identified because they
Occur bilaterally
The results of the videoflouroscopic examination indicated that Amy exhibits velopharyngeal insufficiency during speech production.The movements of the palate and pharynx failed to close the space separating the oral an nasal cavities You read Amy’s case history report very carefully. You find that Amy’s cleft of the palate was located on the left side. It is clear that Amy was born with a
Unilateral cleft palate, but intact lip
You read Amy’s case history report very carefully. You find that Amy’s cleft of the palate was located on the left side. It is clear that Amy was born with a
Unilateral cleft palate, but intact lip
Velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) is a common feature of cleft palate and other craniofacial disorders T/F
True
During a voice evaluation it is important to assess patient physiology, technique, chronic irritants, and
Psychological factors (history)
Neurogenic speech disorders are caused by damage to the nervous system. T/F
True
Development Dysarthria is most commonly associated with children with cleft lip and palate. T/F
False
Shaun was born with the inability to coordinate and control motor movement and posture. Specifically, Shaun exhibits involuntary and uncontrolled movements of his arms and legs, hands and feet. His purposeful movements are slow and writhing. He also exhibits distorted facial patterns and drooling. Shaun’s diagnosis is probably
Cerebral Palsy
In addition to Dysarthria, children with neurogenic speech disorders may have feeding problems because
The same affected muscles causing the dysarthria of speech are used for chewing and swallowing
Casey is four years old. She presents with a phonemic inventory of 5 consonants and 5 vowels, and inconsistent substitution, omission and distortion errors involving these speech sounds. The frequency of her speech sound errors increase as word length increases. She also exhibits monopitch and monoloudness. Her diagnosis is
Apraxia of Speech

Chair – cluster reduction
Ship – stopping – yes
Clay – final consonant deletion – no
Chair – cluster reduction – no
Circle the characteristics that are commonly associated with stuttering (as opposed to normal Disfluency)
o Syllable repetitions
o Sound repetitions
o Sound prolongations
o Sound blocks
o Associated non-speech behaviors
o Syllable repetitions
o Sound repetitions
o Sound prolongations
o Sound blocks
o Associated non-speech behaviors
What is the difference between prevalence and incidence?
Incidence is how many in a given population at a time.
Prevalence is how may are born with a disease each year.
