Abstract:

This thesis addresses treatment outcomes for idiopathic childhood apraxia of speech (CAS), a significant and persistent disorder of speech motor planning and programming. There is a need for greater external evidence to guide clinical decision making. A systematic review of CAS treatment research published from 1970 to 2012 found there are no published randomised control trials (RCTs) for CAS. Three treatments showed strong preliminary evidence to warrant inclusion in future RCTs: Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing, Rapid Syllable Transition Treatment (ReST) and Integrated Phonological Awaren

Abstract:

A Cochrane review of the treatments used for childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) in 2009 identified the need for more well controlled studies (Morgan & Vogel, 2009). These same recommendations were echoed when the review was completed again in 2018 (Morgan, Murray & Liegeois, 2018). There is currently no gold-standard intervention recommended for children with CAS (Morgan et al., 2018). Since the first Cochrane study was published, research has been conducted to examine a small range of treatment approaches for CAS. Despite the increased publication of treatment research, speech-language patholo

Abstract:

This thesis investigated whether childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) differs from phonological disorder (PD) regarding their causal origin. After developing and validating measures targeting components of phonology and speech motor control, we explored if speech motor ability constrained phonological development in CAS more than in PD. This thesis demonstrated children with CAS show a distinct profile of speech impairments but little evidence that their motor deficit constrains phonological development in a way distinct from PD.

Children with childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) are likely to experience severe and persistent spoken and written language disorder.

Debate has historically surrounded whether the features of CAS are the result of an impairment in linguistic or speech motor systems, or both (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, 2007). Most research, however, has failed to explicitly consider a developmental perspective of the disorder, arguably limiting the associated in

Many children are unable to access speech pathology treatment at the recommended intensity.

Abstract:

<p> The framework of Optimality Theory has been recently used to develop constraint-based approaches to the analysis of speech patterns produced by children with phonological disorders. A significant benefit of this type of nonlinear analysis is the power to predict interword and intraword variability of phonological productions. Such variability, also known as inconsistency, is a speech characteristic frequently cited by researchers and clinicians as one that (a) critically aids in differentially diagnosing childhood apraxia of speech and (b) supports the theoretical perspective that childhoo

Abstract:

Apraxia of speech (AOS) is a motor speech disorder that poses significant obstacles to a person's ability to communicate and take part in everyday life. Agreement exists between current theories of AOS that the impairment affects the speech motor planning stage, where linguistic representations are transformed into speech movements, but they disagree on the specific nature of the breakdown at this processing level. A more detailed understanding of this impairment is essential for developing targeted, effective treatment approaches and for identifying the appropriate candidates for these treatm

The nature of Apraxia of Speech (AOS) is poorly understood, particularly in connected speech, and there has been controversy about diagnosis, which has been based on clinical judgements without adequate measures of reliability. There have been few studies of AOS in connected speech rather than single words, fewer about grammar, and no investigations of AOS and grammar in spontaneous speech.

FAS is a speech disorder characterized by changes to the normal speech patterns of the native language. This speech impairment is usually due to stroke or brain injury. Segmental, suprasegmental and prosodic features are altered. FAS speakers’ speech is perceived as foreign rather than disordered. It may be because the speech remains highly accurate and the impairments are generally within the permissible boundaries of the phonological and phonetic variants of the language. In terms of perceptual impression, FAS patients’ speech is placed between speakers with a really foreign accent and the n

Abstract:

To target health services aimed at the impact of maladjustment secondary to a chronic disorder, it is necessary to identify specific disorders that increase the risk of maladjustment. This thesis examines whether children with communication disorders are more likely to have emotional and behavioral problems than those who are healthy or those with other chronic disorders. It also studies whether children with communication disorders are more likely than the comparison groups to develop mental health problems or to persist in having these problems as young adults. To answer these questions, cro

Abstract:

Talapraxi är en talmotorikstörning som drabbar planeringen och programmeringen av talet, vilket visar sig som avvikelser i artikulation och prosodi. I dag finns inget svenskt test för utredning av talapraxi. Syftet med studien var därför att utforma ett testbatteri på svenska som är känsligt även för lindriga grader av talapraxi. Detta test pilotnormerades på 50 friska deltagare. För att kunna studera hur kön, ålder och utbildningsnivå kan inverka på prestationen i testbatteriet, eftersträvades en jämn fördelning när det gäller dessa demografiska bakgrundsvariabler. Uppgifterna konstruerades
