Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calling this a major contribution to the field of psycholinguistics, Professor Dennis Molfese notes that it "stands out as perhaps the major work in the area of phonological development in the last decade. It should become a major reference work and the procedures employed (both for data collection and, perhaps, more so for data analysis) could well set the tenor for the next decade." The eight essays by various contributors in this book review the literature on phonological development, emphasizing problems relating to age, phonemes, and distinctive features. The methodology of data collection, storage, retrieval, presentation, and analysis is described. Data are presented descriptively by individual chapters for each of five age groups: 18, 24, 36, 48, and 72 months. Summary data are presented, using both descriptive and inferential statistics across the entire sample. One hundred children, 20 at each age group, served as subjects. All language samples were collected in spontaneous situations. A total of 86,661 phonemes was entered for analysis. Two distinctive feature systems--the Irwin-Wong and the Chomsky-Halle--were employed in all analyses. Data for both phonemes and distinctive features were presented in terms of distribution, acceptability of production, and nature of any replacement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together a collection of empirical studies on phonological acquisition and disorder of monolingual children speaking different languages (English, German, Putonghua, Cantonese, Maltese, Telugu, Colloquial Egyptian Arabic and Turkish) and bilingual children speaking different language pairs (Spanish-English, Cantonese-English, Mirpuri/Punjabi/Urdu-English, Welsch-English, Arabic-English and Putonghua-Cantonese).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length study of phonological development and impairment of Chinese-speaking children.

Download or read book Differential Diagnosis and Treatment of Children with Speech Disorder written by Barbara Dodd and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paediatric speech and language therapists are challenged by diminished resources and increasingly complex caseloads. The new edition addresses their concerns. Norms for speech development are given, differentiating between the emergence of the ability to produce speech sounds (articulation) and typical developmental error patterns (phonology). The incidence of speech disorders is described for one UK service providing crucial information for service management. The efficacy of service provision is evaluated to show that differential diagnosis and treatment is effective for children with disordered speech. Exploration of that data provides implications for prioritising case loads. The relationship between speech and language disorders is examined in the context of clinical decisions about what to target in therapy. New chapters provide detailed intervention programmes for subgroups of speech disorder: delayed development, use of atypical error patterns, inconsistent errors and development verbal dyspraxia. The final section of the book deals with special populations: children with cognitive impairment, hearing and auditory processing difficulties. The needs of clinicians working with bilingual populations are discussed and ways of intervention described. The final chapter examines the relationship between spoken and written disorders of phonology.
Download or read book Phonological Disorders in Children written by Mehmet S. Yavas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991, the recent developments in the study of phonological disorders in children had led to a fruitful interaction between speech pathology and phonology. It is one aspect of the application of linguistic theory to the study of speech and language disorders which had opened up a new field, clinical linguistics. This book brings together the concerns of the linguist and the speech pathologist; the essays chosen share the quality of not discussing theory or therapy without addressing the implications one has for the other. By concentrating on recent work the editor hoped to stimulate further discussion in this important and fast growing area of research.

Download or read book Handbook of Vowels and Vowel Disorders written by Karen Pollock and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the general study of speech and phonetics, vowels have stood in second place to consonants. But what vowels are, how they differ from one another, how they vary among speakers, and how they are subject to disorder, are questions that require a closer examination. This Handbook presents a comprehensive, cogent, and up-to-date analysis of the vowel, including its typical development in children's speech, description by perceptual and instrumental methods, cross-linguistic and sociolinguistic aspects, and disorders of its production and use. It approaches the problems of vowel production and perception from the viewpoints of physiology, physics, psychology, linguistics, phonetics, phonology, and speech-language pathology. The chapters are logically complementary, and the major sections of the book are like key dimensions of understanding, each adding a perspective and base of knowledge on vowels. The sum total of the chapters is a synthesis of information on vowels that has no precedent.

Download or read book Phonological Development written by Marilyn May Vihman and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1996 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length survey of and introduction to the study of the child's acquisition of phonology. It contrasts data-based interactionist, cognitive models of phonological development with earlier deductive behaviorist and structuralist accounts. Setting these models in current neurophysiological perspectives, it integrates the flourishing independent research areas of infant speech perception and vocal production. The book traces the nature and timing of prosodic and segmental development with due attention to evidence of individual differences and from cross-linguistic studies. It describes the emergence of first words and the first phonological system against the background of the child's social and cognitive development in the first eighteen months. Reviewing current studies of later development, the book discusses the role of vocabulary growth in the emergence of the segment, the early relationship of phonology and syntax, and the emergence of reading and spelling in relation to phonological sensitivity.
