A must-have reference, this classic book delivers exceptional coverage of clinical literature and focuses on speech disorders of unknown causes. Offering a range of perspectives, it covers the normal aspects of speech sound articulation, normal speech sound acquisition, the classification of and factors related to the presence of phonological disorders, the assessment and remediation of speech sound disorders, and phonology as it relates to language and dialectal variations. This edition features twelve manageable chapters, including a new chapter on the classification of speech sound disorders, an expanded discussion of childhood apraxia of speech, additional coverage of evidence-based practices, and a look at both motor-based and linguistically-based treatment approaches. Aphasiology: Disorders and Clinical Practice, 2/e offers a uniquely balanced and comprehensive presentation of aphasia, encompassing both theoretical study and clinical practice. Written in a highly accessible style, this text carefully explains and illustrates key paradigms in research and treatment. The author uses tables to summarize essential points and to provide historical overviews.Structured according to a course outline, the book begins with etiology and moves quickly to clinical assessment. It teaches diagnostic thinking with respect to the relationships between symptoms and hidden impairments in cognitive terms. This thinking is illustrated with research as well as more explicitly with assessments and treatments. Through this approach, a future clinician should acquire an appreciation for the scientific investigation that supports a clinical discipline. The Second Edition features updated information on many topics, such as functional assessments and treatments (including ethnography and outcome measures) and medical aspects and treatments keep the text current and competitive in the field. It also includes a new chapter on dementias supplements current chapters on other cognitive disorders (right hemisphere dysfunction and traumatic brain injury).

Chapter 6 on Special Investigations has been eliminated from this edition and its topics have been redistributed, improving the overall flow of the text. For forty years, this textbook has been the gold-standard resource for providing speech-language pathologists with a strong foundation of knowledge on speech sound disorders. Previously published as Articulation and Phonological Disorders, this core text is now in its ninth edition, fully updated and expanded to meet the needs of today’s clinicians as they work with children of all ages.A cornerstone of every SLP’s professional preparation, the new edition of this book offers the most up-to-date, comprehensive coverage of contemporary clinical literature and the best available treatments for speech sound disorders. With a focus on evidence-based practice, the expert authors and contributors present essential information and guidelines on a broad range of topics, from the basics of typical speech production to recommended practices for assessment and intervention. Updates include new and expanded chapters on timely topics, new instructor materials and student-friendly features, and helpful guidance for clinicians serving an increasingly diverse population.With this authoritative synthesis of research and practice, the next generation of SLPs will have the broad and deep knowledge they need to understand speech sound disorders and provide children with the best possible supports and interventions.WHAT’S NEW:All chapters fully updated with the latest research and recommended practicesNew chapter on treatment of childhood apraxia and speech sound disorders in older childrenExpanded guidance on evidence-based practices and treatment basicsMore on motor-based approaches to treatmentExtended discussion of language variation and dialectNew chapter on accent modificationNew student-friendly features such as learning objectives and clinical vignettes to demonstrate treatment practicesUpdated Online Instructor’s Resource Manual and Test BankSELECTED TOPICS COVERED: fundamentals of typical speech production and acquisition • specific factors associated with speech sound disorders, including motor abilities, cognitive-linguistic factors, and psychosocial factors • classification and comorbidity in speech sound disorders • assessment and data collection procedures • using assessment data to make sound decisions about intervention • using evidence-based practices in treatment • motor-based treatment approaches • linguistically based treatment approaches • treatment of childhood apraxia of speech • phonological awareness development and intervention • assessment and intervention considerations for children from culturally and linguistically diverse populations • accent modification for second language learnersINSTRUCTOR MATERIALS INCLUDED: Faculty can easily incorporate this text into their course with the fully updated online Instructor\'s Resource Manual and Test Bank. Included are key points, discussion topics, and instructional ideas for each chapter, plus a bank of multiple choice, short answer, and essay questions.Need the book before November? The ebook of Speech Sound Disorders in Children will be available in August, just in time for your fall classes. 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. This textbook provides a deep review of the knowledge base necessary for the competent assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of developmental phonological disorders. Throughout the book, normal and atypical phonological learning in natural and therapeutic contexts are presented as the emergent property of biological constraints and learning mechanisms in dynamic interaction with environmental inputs. The thirteen chapters cover seminal studies and leading-edge research, allowing the speech-language pathologist to design interventions that are adapted to the unique needs of each child while being consistent with the best research evidence. This textbook is intended for undergraduate or graduate speech- language pathology students but also provides a valuable update for practicing clinicians. It is accompanied by a CD-ROM instructor\'s kit that includes teaching slides and laboratory activities for each chapter.

This revised and updated volume in the Clinical Competence Series is a valuable resource for use in the care and treatment of individuals with articulation and phonological disorders. Covering articulation and phonological disorders that span client ages, populations, and settings, this text is ideal for both clinical use and in communication sciences programs. In addition to updating information from the first edition, the second edition adds two new chapters, providing an overview of speech and its disorders and addressing how children develop speech perception and production skills for communication. New to the Edition New Chapter 1: Foundations of Care, describes the social, linguistic, and biological foundations that underlie clinical care as described in this book. New Chapter 3: Speech Development, contains extensive discussion and clinically useful tables showing developmental milestones in speech perception and production, the connection between speech perception and production, and speech for purposes of communication. Updated references New appendices Revises section on distinguishing dialect from disorder and varieties of American English This one-of-a-kind resource presents a wide range of expert opinions about phonological disorders in children, allowing readers to understand and compare diverse approaches to assessment and intervention, choose the ones that will work best, and use their new knowledge to make decisions during clinical interventions. For each of the book\'s three sections—Assessment and Classification, Goal and Target Selection, and Intervention —the editors pose important frequently asked questions for each contributor to answer, such asWhich diagnostic classification system do you find useful?How does your assessment differ for children of different ages, developmental levels, or linguistic backgrounds?How do you integrate language goals with phonological goals?What factors influence your selection of treatment goals and targets?When should a child receive individual therapy as opposed to group therapy?What do you do when your intervention plan is not working?Through the theoretical insights and practical experience each contributor shares— and a helpful conclusion that comments on all the approaches discussed — readers will have the broad and balanced knowledge they need for informed clinical decision making. Speech-language pathologists, graduate students, audiologists, and educators will use this comprehensive, accessible resource to shape their practices and improve the lives of children with phonological disorders.Phonological Disorders in Children is a part of the Communication and Language Intervention Series A renowned classic updated with the most current, most comprehensive review of information critical to the study of clinical phonology available.
