Munson, Benjamin; Lackas, Natasha; Koeppe, Kiana – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: We evaluated whether naive listeners' ratings of the gender typicality of the speech of children assigned male at birth (AMAB) and children assigned female at birth (AFAB) were different at two time points: one at which children were 2.5-3.5 years old and one when they were 4.5-5.5 years old. We also examined whether measures of speech,…

Masso, Sarah; Thomas, Donna – EBP Briefs (Evidence-based Practice Briefs), 2022
Clinical Question: When assessing children's speech using a standardised speech assessment, is face-to-face better than telepractice to determine the presence and the nature of speech sound disorder? Method: Systematic Review. Study Sources: PsycInfo®, CINAHL, Scopus, PubMed, ERIC. Search Terms: telehealth OR telepractice OR telemedicine AND child…

The Relationship between Speech Perception and Speech Production in Children with Visual Impairments
Brouwer, Kyle; Gordon-Pershey, Monica – Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, 2021
The influence of visual impairment (i.e., blindness or low vision) on the development of children's speech sound production has undergone some speculation for over half a century. Children learn to produce speech sounds by utilizing and integrating several cognitive-linguistic and sensory-perceptual processes, which may include processing visual…

Brosseau-Lapré, Françoise; Schumaker, Jennifer; Kluender, Keith R. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: This study compared perception of consonants in medial position by preschoolers, with and without speech sound disorder (SSD), with similar vocabulary and language skills. In addition, we investigated the association between speech perception and production skills. Method: Participants were 36 monolingual English-speaking children with…

Tumanova, Victoria; Woods, Carly; Wang, Qiu – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: We examined the effects of physiological arousal on speech motor control and speech motor practice effects in preschool-age children who do (CWS) and do not stutter (CWNS). Method: Participants included 18 CWS (M[subscript age] = 4 years 5 months) and 18 age- and gender-matched CWNS. The participants repeated a phrase "buy bobby a…

Wang, Emily; Farquharson, Kelly – EBP Briefs (Evidence-based Practice Briefs), 2016
Clinical Question: When assessing speech sound production of bilingual Mandarin- English speaking children, are standardized measures or informal assessment procedures better for determining whether the child has a speech sound disorder or speech sound difference? Method: Systematic Review Study Sources: Google Scholar, American…

Chenausky, Karen V.; Verdes, Alison; Shield, Aaron – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2022
Purpose: Manual sign is a common alternative mode of communication taught to children with childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Gesture use is positively related to later increases in vocabulary and syntactic complexity in typical development, but there is little evidence supporting the use of manual sign for children with CAS. We sought to identify…

Lim, Jacqueline; McCabe, Patricia; Purcell, Alison – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2019
This study explored the feasibility of training school teaching assistants to provide the treatment, Dynamic Temporal and Tactile Cueing to treat childhood apraxia of speech (CAS, also known as developmental verbal dyspraxia). The study used a single case experimental design across behaviours and a qualitative evaluation of teaching assistant…

Benway, Nina R.; Garcia, Kelly; Hitchcock, Elaine; McAllister, Tara; Leece, Megan C.; Wang, Qiu; Preston, Jonathan L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Prior studies report conflicting descriptions of the relationships between phonological awareness (PA), vocabulary, and speech perception in preschoolers with speech disorders. This study sought to determine the nature of these relationships in a sample of school-aged children with residual speech sound errors affecting /[voiced alveolar…

Nittrouer, Susan; Lowenstein, Joanna H.; Tarr, Eric – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2013
Purpose: Previous research has demonstrated that children weight the acoustic cues to many phonemic decisions differently than do adults and gradually shift those strategies as they gain language experience. However, that research has focused on spectral and duration cues rather than on amplitude cues. In the current study, the authors examined…

Chenausky, Karen V.; Gagné, Danielle; Stipancic, Kaila L.; Shield, Aaron; Green, Jordan R. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between perceived single-word speech severity and intelligibility in children with childhood apraxia of speech (CAS), with and without comorbid language impairment (LI), and to investigate the contribution of different CAS signs to perceived single-word speech severity and…

Ross, Lauren; Geertsema, Salomé; le Roux, Mia; Alet Graham, Marien – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2020
Use of nonwords is a potentially more appropriate method of assessment for English second language (EL2) learners. A mixed comparative design was used to compare the effects when using nonwords instead of picture-based stimuli to assess articulation of EL2 learners. Subaims were to compare results between two tests and age groups. In all, 16…

Nassrallah, Flora; Whittingham, JoAnne; Sun, Huidan; Fitzpatrick, Elizabeth M. – Deafness & Education International, 2023
This work examined speech and language skills of a cohort of children with unilateral and bilateral mild/moderate hearing loss at time of discharge from preschool therapy services as they were transitioning to the school system. The study consisted of a retrospective chart review of children born between 2003 and 2011 and identified with a…

Dodd, Barbara; Ttofari-Eecen, Kyriaki; Brommeyer, Katherine; Ng, Kelly; Reilly, Sheena; Morgan, Angela – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2018
Some children's speech impairment resolves spontaneously. Others have persistent problems affecting academic and social development. Identifying early markers that reliably predict long-term outcome would allow better prioritization for preschool intervention. This article evaluates the significance of different types of speech errors, made by 93…

Eriks-Brophy, Alice; Gibson, Sarah; Tucker, Shawna-Kaye – Volta Review, 2013
This study examined articulatory error patterns and phonological process use in 25 preschool children with hearing loss enrolled in three Canadian auditory-verbal intervention programs, and compared their performance to a control group of 35 children with typical hearing based on the GFTA-2 and the KLPA-2. Significant differences were found in the…
