Title: | Phonological Process Occurrence in Typically Developing Toddlers | Authors: | Petinou, Kakia Armostis, Spyros |
Major Field of Science: | Medical and Health Sciences | Field Category: | Clinical Medicine | Keywords: | Cypriot Greek dialect;Phonological development;Phonological processes | Issue Date: | 12-Apr-2017 | Source: | Folia Phoniatrica et Logopaedica, 2017, vol. 68, no. 5, pp.199-204 | Volume: | 68 | Issue: | 5 | Start page: | 199 | End page: | 204 | Journal: | Folia Phoniatrica et Logopaedica | Abstract: | Background/Aims: The study examined the phonological development in Cypriot Greek (CG)-speaking, typically developing (TD) toddlers for the purpose of observing occurrences of initial consonant deletion (ICD), regressive assimilation (RAS), and their interactive relationship as a function of time. Participants and Methods: Subjects were 8 CG-speaking TD toddlers assessed longitudinally at ages 24-28 and 32-36 months. Word targets from spontaneously produced utterances via language sample collection were analyzed for the percentage of occurrence of ICD and RAS. Results: Results revealed a significant change of phonological process occurrence as a function of time as well as an antagonistic relationship between ICD and correct onset production. Comparisons between measures showed that trisyllabic (three-syllable) words exhibited higher rates of ICD than disyllabic words. Conclusions: Early patterns of phonological development and phonological assessment should include a hierarchical account of phonological behavior in the form of word structure shapes and a possible interaction among phonological process occurrence. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/10113 | ISSN: | 10217762 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jvoice.2017.07.005 | Rights: | © Elsevier | Type: | Article | Affiliation : | Cyprus University of Technology | Publication Type: | Peer Reviewed |
