Purpose of AAC
|
increase/improve an individual's ability to achieve basic communication functions in the environments and activities in which they participate or are expected to participate- gives someone the ability to have their needs met and share information
|

|
integrated group of components, including the strategies, aids, techniques, and symbols used to enhance communication; we all use a system to communicate;e.g. texting is part of our communicative system and it is an alternate communication device; e.g. answering maching allows us to communicate with someone even when they are not there
|

specify the direct and indirect system motor plans
|
|

|
contribute to planning based on expected performance and aspects of internal (proprioceptive) feedback
|
|
motor planning

goal-orientated spatial and temporal specifications of speech movements (respiration, phonation, resonance, ariculation)
-described in PLACE and MANNER of production -coordination, sequencing of sounds and coarticulation |
|
sensorimotor programming
|
a set of muscle commands structured prior to onset of a movement & executed ina sequence while influenced by feedback
-accounts for major movement determinations of respiratory, phonatory, resonatory, and articulatory position and timing |
|
Force function
|
element of sensorimotor programming
level of muscle contraction to complete target |
|
timing relations
|
element of sensorimotor programming
temporal characteristics of within each element of the target |
|
interstructural/component relations

element of sensorimotor programming
positioning and timing across elements |
|
status of the position dynamics
|
element of sensorimotor programming
feedback to ensure movement adheres to the plan to reach the intended target |
|
Sensorimotor programming: what do the programs specify?
|
programs specify muscle tone, movement direction, force, range, rate, as well as mechanical stiffness of joints
|
|
why is sensorimotor program flexible?
|
to account for dynamic nature of phonological targets (e.g. coarticulation)
it prevents over- and under-shoot |
|
speech motor equivalence
|
the contributions of various structures (e.g. articulators) can vary considerably across multiple productions of a segment, yet the end product is perceptually consistent
|
|
Neurosubstrates associated with programming
|
basal ganglia control circuit
cerebellar control circuit fronto-limbic system SMA Cortex |
|
Sensorimotor execution
|
realization of the dynamix sensorimotor plan and programming
-even after speech has begun, system is flexible to make "on-line" changes due to the integrated rocess of all aspects of the sensorimotor system (planning, programming, execution) |
|
Speech Movement
|
production of acoustic signal (based on voltional recruitment of respiratory, phonatory, articulatory, musculature) in corrdinated and rapid fashions
very complex postures and dynamic characteristics (movements) are highly skilled volitional neuromuscular events functional trade-off between speech and accuracy (varies based on personal and situational factors) |
|
Netsell's model
|
respiration, phonation, resonance, and articulation all lead to/ have an impact on prosody; dysarthria can affect any/all of these subsystems
|
|
Motor speech disorders
|
speech disorders resulting from neurologic impairments affecting the motor planning, programming, neuromuscular control or execution of speech; disorder of speech with a sensorimotor difficulty
|
|
Dysarthria
|
neurologic speech disorder resulting from abnormalities in the strength, speed, range, steadiness, tone,or accuracey of movements required for control of the respiratory, phonatory, resonatory, articulatory and prosodic aspects of speech production; neurologic in origin; disorder of movement or control
|
|
what causes the pathophysiologica disturbances responsible for dysarthria?
|
central or peripheral nervous system abnormalities and most often reflect weaknesses; spacticity; incoordination; involuntary movements, excessive or reduced muscle tone
|
|
Apraxia of speech
|
neurologic speech disorder reflecting an impaired capacity to plan or program sensorimotor commands necessary for directing movements that result in phonetically and prosodically normal speech;
occurs in the absence of physiologic disturbances associated with the dysarthrias and in teh absence of disturbance in the compent of language |
|
Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS)- symptoms
|
difficulty initiating speech movements, difficulty achieving and maintaining articulatory configurations, groping for articulatory posture,halting, effotful sequencing of phonemes, inabilitiy to imitate speech sounds in absence of structural or functional abnormalities of articulators, vowel distortion,timing errors,
|
|
why does CAS have more widespread linguistic effects than adult apraxia?
|
language is still developing in children
|
|
Different terms for CAS
|
developmental articulatory dyspraxia, verbal dyspraxia, developmental verbal apraxia, developmental apraxia of speech
|
|
