Communication Sciences & Disorders

Updated fully in its Second Edition, Articulatory and Phonological Impairments provides students with a clinical framework that encompasses basic terms and concepts, phonetic transcription, and theoretical perspectives extensively applied to clinical examples.

This text demonstrates a systematic transition from a knowledge base in clinical practice to the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with articulatory/phonological disorders.

While this text offers a thorough discussion of phonetic principles (also known as the traditional or motor approach) applied to the diagnosis and treatment of motor-based disorders, emphasis is placed on phonemic approaches. Contemporary issues such as phonological assessment, various phonemic-based therapies, and newer nonlinear/multi-linear phonologies and their role in the assessment and intervention process are treated in detail.

• Each chapter contains several clinical applications, helping students gain a better understanding of the material as well as assisting in the development of clinical insights.

• Includes thorough coverage of theoretical and developmental foundations, including those of the newer nonlinear/multi-linear phonologies.

• Comprehensive coverage of phonetic (motor-based) and phonemic approaches provides readers with a range of different treatment possibilities and demonstrates the direct application of these intervention strategies through clinical applications.

• Case studies and clinical case study exercises provided throughout the text demonstrate different types of phonemic analyses and how they lead to therapeutic decision-making.

• Coverage of unique populations with articulatory/phonological impairments, including developmental apraxia of speech, the dysarthrias, apraxia of speech, and cleft palate, gives readers an overview of the disorders and provides extensive references for further study.

• Discusses phonological variations of several American English dialects and the phonological inventories of Spanish, Japanese, Mandarin, and Vietnamese and contrasts them with General American English.

• Glossary items are noted throughout the text, and a complete list of words with definitions is provided to supplement the book.

• Extensive revisions of Chapters 2 & 3 reflect the newer transcription systems offered by the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and the Extensions to the IPA (extIPA).

• In Chapter 4, the section on multi-linear approaches has been extended to include optimality theory and its clinical applications.

• Coverage of phonetic treatment approaches in Chapter 9 now includes multiple opposition training.

• A revised Instructor's Manual and Test Bank includes many additional clinical examples and projects to enhance students' understanding of assessment and treatment procedures.

All chapters include a “Chapter Outline,” “Summary,” and “References.”

  Combining a strong clinical emphasis with a variety of new chapter learning aids, the Third Edition of Articulatory and Phonological Impairments provides students with a clinical framework that encompasses basic terms and concepts, phonetic transcription, and several theoretical perspectives that are extensively applied to clinical examples.

   

  This text demonstrates to students a systematic transition from a knowledge base in clinical practice to the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with articulatory or phonological disorders. This clinical approach is further supported in this third edition through the addition of case studies, lists of websites and additional readings, critical thinking activities, and test questions.

   

  While this text offers a thorough discussion of phonetic principles (also known as the traditional or motor approach) applied to the diagnosis and treatment of motor-based disorders, emphasis is placed on phonemic approaches. Contemporary issues such as features of a phonological assessment, various phonemic-based therapies, and newer nonlinear/ multi-linear phonologies and their role in the assessment and intervention process are treated in detail.

This text demonstrates a systematic transition from a knowledge base in clinical practice to the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with articulatory/ phonological disorders. While this text offers a thorough discussion of phonetic principles (also known as the traditional or motor approach) applied to the diagnosis and treatment of motor-based disorders, emphasis is placed on phonemic approaches. Case studies are used to demonstrate a step-by-step process of multiple assessment strategies focusing on phonetic and phonemic analyses and clinical case study exercises provided throughout the text demonstrate different types of phonemic analyses and how they lead to therapeutic decision-making. Contemporary issues such as features of a phonological assessment, various phonemic-based therapies, and newer nonlinear and /-multi-linear phonologies and their role in the assessment and intervention process are treated in detail.

New to this Edition:

• Extensive revision of chapter 3 to reflect the newer transcription systems offered by the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and the Extensions to the IPA (extIPA).
• In Chapter 4, the section on multilinear approaches has been extended to include optimality theory and its clinical applications.
• Updates throughout of new information discovered since the First Edition.
