Question 1

The three categories of motor learning principles are:

A)Prepractice goals,principles of practice,and principles of feedback
B)Prepractice goals,principles of learning,and principles of movement
C)Principles of learning,principles of generalization,and principles of motor movement
D)Principles of motor,principles of learning,and principles of language.

Answer 1

Prepractice goals,principles of practice,and principles of feedback

Question 2

Speech production is:

A)All motor based
B)All language based
C)Mostly motor based
D)Both motor and language based

Answer 2

Both motor and language based

Question 3

A child is able to produce /s/ in "mask" but cannot produce /s/ in "swim,sun,bus".The approach that should be used to establish the /s/ sound is:

A)Imitation
B)Phonemic Placement
C)Contextual utilization
D)Shaping

Answer 3

Contextual utilization

Question 4

All of the following are steps in perception "ear" training except:

A)Identification
B)Isolation
C)Repetition
D)Stimulation

Question 5

Treatment for childhood apraxia of speech is best conducted in one long therapy session per week

Question 6

Tactile feedback may include placing an oral appliance in the client's mouth to provide a landmark for correct articulation.

Question 7

The traditional approach to articulation therapy focuses on production of phonemes in increasingly complex levels - from isolation through conversational speech.

Question 8

If a clinician says "listen to how I make this sound.Watch my mouth.Now you say it!",the clinician is trying to get the client to ___________.

A)Imitate the sound
B)Identify the sound
C)Place his articulators correctly
D)Shape the sound

Question 9

The three phases of a treatment continuum - establishment,generalization,and maintenance - are 3 separate,discreet,and isolated stages.

Question 10

The core vocabulary approach is likely best suited for children in which disordered population:

A)Childhood apraxia of speech (CAS)
B)Autism
C)Persistent speech sound disorders
D)Articulation and language disorders

Question 11

Nonspeech oral motor activities should never be used in treatment of speech sound disorders.

Question 12

Contrast training never involves the sound that the child is producing in error.

Question 13

Given the following placement cues,what phoneme is the clinician attempting to elicit? Raise your tongue so that the sides are touching the insides of your teeth.Groove the tongue along the middle (perhaps use a straw).Place the tip of the tongue behind the upper or lower teeth.Bite the teeth together.Blow air forward,down the groove in the tongue and out the front of the mouth.

A)/t/
B)/r/
C)/m/
D)/s/

Question 14

Childhood apraxia of speech is primarily a disorder of what two areas?

A)Speech and language
B)Speaking and listening
C)Planning and coordination
D)Motor movement and linguistic knowledge

Question 15

All clients begin the stages of treatment continuum:

A)At the beginning - with establishment
B)At the level most appropriate to their current skills
C)In the middle - with generalization
D)Towards the end - with maintenance

Question 16

Childhood apraxia of speech has a primary characteristic of inconsistent speech errors.

Question 17

Which famous researcher/ SLP developed the "traditional approach" to articulation therapy:

A)Wayne Secord
B)Charles Van Riper
C)Martin Van Ramtin
D)Noam Chomsky

Question 18

Articulation and phonology are two sides to the same coin.

Question 19

Phonetic placement involves instructing the client where to place articulators for correct sound production.

Question 20

The first step in perceptual training of contrasts involves introducing the child to what a minimal pair is.

Question 21

What are three examples of visual feedback?

Question 22

Name two different perceptual training activities.

Question 23

What are the three phases of a common treatment continuum?

Question 24

Describe how to use the technique "shaping" in order to achieve a correct /s/ production with your client.

Question 25

Some clinicians continue to use nonspeech oral motor activities in the treatment of speech sound disorders,though no empirical evidence supports this approach.There are four main justifications from clinicians used to support this approach.Name two of those justifications and why they do not hold true.

Question 26

Discuss the importance of high quality evidence levels in research designs.How does this affect practicing SLPs?

Question 27

Describe the three types of principles of motor learning.

Question 28

It has been noted that the traditional approach to articulation therapy is not appropriate for children with multiple sounds in error.Discuss why this might be the case.What would be a better treatment approach for these children?

Question 29

Describe the three steps in the core vocabulary approach.
