The use of different service delivery models for children with phonological disorders.

A group of 12 preschool children with phonological process errors was selected, and individual subjects were randomly assigned to one of two treatments that differed in relation to service delivery. Group I received a treatment that was administered exclusively by the clinician. Group II received a combination that included clinician administered treatment and parent administered instruction with the Speech Viewer system. Results indicate that both groups improved significantly, but they did not differ significantly from each other in the degree of change. Implications with respect to the service delivery options and their respective components are discussed.

Acoustic patterns of an adolescent with multiple articulation errors.

This is a case study on an adolescent who demonstrated multiple articulation errors. In particular, an acoustic analysis was performed on the same features as those investigated by Kent and Forner (1980) in children with normal articulation and by Glasson (1984) in speech- and language-disordered children. The results of the analysis were compared to the data obtained by Kent and Forner and Glasson. Our subject demonstrated longer phrase durations and more variability than any of the groups with whom he was compared. In addition, he displayed an interaction between syntactic and articulatory performance.
