Visual-motor ability of children with articulation disorders.

The present study was done to assess differences between children with diagnosed functional articulation disorders and a control group on the variable of visual-motor ability. A group of 34 elementary children with articulation problems were matched with a control group of 34 for sex, age, and grade. Both groups were administered the Goldman-Fristoe Test of Articulation and the Minnesota Percepto-Diagnostic Test--Revised. Analysis indicated that children with articulation problems performed significantly lower on visual-motor skills.

Visual training and correction of articulation disorders by use of dynamic palatography: serial observation in a case of cleft palate.

The dynamic palatograph is an electrical apparatus that generates a visual display of constantly changing palatolingual contact as a function of time, using an artificial palatal plate with affixed electrodes. This paper describes a technique of speech therapy incorporating dynamic palatography for a cleft palate patient. The patient, a 6-year-old Japanese girl with a repaired unilateral cleft lip and palate, had been judged to demonstrate articulation disorders involving contact of the tongue with the hard palate or alveolus following surgical improvement of velopharyngeal function. Prior to therapy the tongue tended to contact the hard palate more posteriorly than normal. After therapy with the dynamic palatograph, palatolingual contact was normal in comparison with average speakers. Our findings suggest that the facility of constant visual indication of tongue posture to the clinician and patient during corrective speech therapy using dynamic palatography may expedite results with cleft palate patients in the speech clinic when implemented in a carefully structured treatment plan.

Wavelet transform in the time-frequency analysis of patients with articulation disorders.

Spectral analysis of the human voice is a frequently used digital analysis method in the diagnosis, the planning and follow-up of the treatment of speech disorders. In the classical spectral analysis method, the principals of Joseph Fourier are used. This is called "Fourier Transform" and it accepts that all signals are formed of the synthesis of many sinusoïdal formed signals. In recent years a new transform method called "wavelet transform" accepts the complex signals formed of small signal particles called "wavelets" and it is considered that this transform will solve the documented problems of the "Fourier Transform". By using the appropriate wavelet, this transform can be used as an alternative to the Fourier transform. In this study, the patients with an articulation disorder of the "s" sound were evaluated before and after the phoniatric reeducation by using both the transform methods, and the results obtained are discussed.

An articulation disorder in 17th-century Germany.

Apical trill was regarded as the correct pronunciation of R in 17th-century German, but malarticulations of this difficult sound were widespread. Two of the most common substitutions were the uvular trill and L. The first was satirically described in a novel by Christian Weise (1673), while Rosinus Lentilius (1698), a physician, dealt with the L-substitution in a more scholarly but no less humorous manner. Annotated translations of these texts are presented here along with an introduction. The study suggests there may be more to the earlier history of speech disorders than is generally supposed.
