Helping

Relationship between two unequal partners to assist those who are weaker or less able

Serving

balanced connection between individuals

Communication

a dynamic process of exchanging information and ideas between and among individuals: encoding, transmitting, and decoding intended messages

Language

arbitrary symbols, rule-governed.

Encoding/Decoding

sharing same idea/message between talker and listener in a communication process

Communication

believed to begin at birth, does not depend on the use of language or speech

Infants - First Few Months

discriminate contrasting phonemes, coordinate eye gaze. Differentiate between intonation patterns. Recognize different voices, distinguish verbal from nonverbal sound.

Early Development

early communicative behaviors of infants - gaze, intention, interaction between caretaker and baby, joint reference and joint action.

Joint Action

refers to actions or events that enable children to predict outcome of communication (peekaboo)

Joint Reference

refers to an agreed referent for a particular object or person and is important for development of early word meaning.

Children typically progress from

reflexive, undifferentiated, non-intentional communication to conventional, verbal, intentional communication by their second birthday.

Primary purpose of language

to code transmissions between and among individuals

Form

Syntax, Morphology, and Phonology

Content

Semantics

Use

Pragmatics

Respiratory System

supply oxygen to the blood and remove excess carbon dioxide, also serves as the generating source for speech production.


Structures: lungs, trachea, bronchial tubes, muscles of rib cage, abdominal, diaphragm

Lungs

organs of respiration, porous and spongy

Trachea

cartilaginous and membranous tube with rings that form the structure that moves air in and out of lungs

Bronchial Tubes

extend into lungs from trachea, air transport to and from lungs

Muscles of Rib Cage

cause rib cage to expand and compress

Abdominal Content

stomach and intestinnes

Diaphragm

separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominal cavity, works with and/or independent of the rib cage to move air in and out of the lungs

Developmental Changes

anatomic differences result in difference in function across development (children have a faster rate of respiration and use greater air pressures than adults for speaking).

Resting Tidal Breathing

Breathing to sustain life

Inspiration

Diaphragm contracts, rib cage and lungs expand, lung volume increases and air pressure drops, causing air to rush in

Expiration

Rib cage wall size decreases, lungs are compressed, pressure within lungs increases, causing air to rush out. Does not require active muscle contraction

Respiratory Cycle

one inhalation and exhalation

Larynx

An air valve composed of cartilages, muscles, and other tissue. It is the main sound generator for speech production.

Larynx

voice box, tube located on top of the trachea through which air passes into and out of the lungs. It functions as a 'valve' which opens or closes the air stream. This produces a vibrating sound (phonation).

Vocal Folds

vibrating structures of the larynx

Medial compression

force that brings the vocal folds together at midline to produce voice

Thyroid cartilage

large, H-shaped cartilage that contributes to much of the bulk of the larynx and works with the Aryenoid and Cricoid cartilages to stretch and contract vocal folds.

Supralaryngeal

(above larynx) system, the structures that move to produce speech. Three parts: Pharynx/Pharyngeal Cavity; Oral Cavity; Nasal Cavity

Pharynx/Pharyngeal Cavity

connects directly to the laryngeal opening. Pharynx is divided into nasopharynx, oropharynx, and laryngopharynx

Oral/Nasal Cavity

separated by the hard and soft palate

Articulators

the structures that move to produce speech including: lips, jaw, tongue, pharyngeal walls, soft palate, teeth

Phonation

the beginning of speech production

Tracheal/Alveolar pressure

air pressure that builds up beneath adducted vocal folds

Fundamental Frequency

the number of cycles of vocal fold vibrations per second

Harmonics

whole-number multiples of the fundamental frequency

The Source-Filter Theory

Movement of the tongue, lips, and larynx change the shape of the vocal tract and modify sound

Formants

the resonance frequencies of the vocal tract.

Communication Disorder

one which deviates from the community standards sufficiently enough to interfere with transmission of the message, stand out as unusually different, and produce negative feelings for the communicator

Communication Difference

a language variety which is normal phenomenon, not necessarily an indication of a communication problem. (dialects, accents)

Dialect

a variety of language derived from historical, social, political, educational, regional, and cultural differences; does not derive from biological differences. Has its own linguistic surface structure, deep structure, and rules for language use; different from an accent

Accent

the phonological, idiomatic, suprasegmental, and vocal characteristics of spoken language. Refers only to the surface structure of language, reflects regional or foreign language influences.
