(CSAD2B). Agenda. Who We Are. Program Information. About Speech Language Pathologists. Department Offerings. Career Options. Structure and Course Sequence. How to Succeed in the Program. Applying to graduate School. SPPA 6400 Tasko. SPPA 6400 Tasko. Functional Voice Disorders. What is a functional voice disorder?. Voice disorder in the absence of structural/neurological pathology . Pathology insufficient to explain the degree of dysphonia. 1. Topic 3 . Physical Acoustics Review. WARNING!!!!. This is a REVIEW.. Mastery is ESSENTIAL to understand the material later in the course.. If you found this material particularly challenging in previous courses it is, spend the time on it NOW.. Neurogenic Dysphonia: Topics. Neurology of the larynx. Organizational Framework. Selected Disorders. Spasmodic Dysphonia. Vocal Tremor. Vocal Fold Paresis/Paralysis. SPPA 6400 Tasko.

This textbook has been carefully designed to provide a thorough introduction to the study of speech. It assumes no technical background, and students from a wide variety of disciplines contributing to this new and exciting field will find the exposition fully accessible. Each chapter progresses from simple examples to more detailed discussions of recent primary research and concludes with stimulating problem sets. All topics essential for a basic understanding of the field are included: the physiological, biological, and neurological bases of speech the physics of sound the source-filter theory of speech production and the underlying principles of electrical and computer models of speech production. Written in a clear, reader-friendly style, Speech Science Primer serves as an introduction to speech science and covers basic information on acoustics, the acoustic analysis of speech, speech anatomy and physiology, and speech perception. It also includes topics such as research methodology, speech motor control, and history/evolution of speech science. With its reader-friendly content and valuable online resources, Speech Science Primer: Physiology, Acoustics, and Perception of Speech, Sixth Edition is an ideal text for beginning speech pathology and audiology students and faculty. This comprehensive book has become an internationally recognized standard reference on measurement of physiological and acoustical aspects of speech and voice. It is specifically written for those without a technical background and includes a wide assortment of observational and measurement techniques. It offers explanations of their theoretical and technical foundations, comparisons of instrumental techniques, and extensive graphics to inform the clinician\'s choice of appropriate measurement tools. Just as important, this book includes extensive summaries of test results, allowing a particular patient\'s performance to be assessed in a valid context.
