Method: Productions of /ð/ in spontaneous language samples from 20 children with SSD were categorized as correct or in error. These productions were pooled to determine patterns of proportions of errors across utterance lengths and positions. Results: A greater proportion of productions of /ð/ in error were found in 8-morpheme utterances than in 3-morpheme utterances. A gradual increase in proportion of errors was observed in productions of /ð/ occurring in utterance-medial positions. Conclusions: Some support was found for utterance length effects on articulation and stronger support was found for utterance position effects. Utterance length and position should receive consideration by SLPs in the assessment and treatment of preschool children with SSD. 2018-06-04 English text Case Western Reserve University School of Graduate Studies / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1522974587905785 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=case1522974587905785 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
