Phonological Error Patterns from a Clinical Perspective

More about the book

Focusing on the development of phonology in children, this book explores the systematic errors they make, known as phonological error patterns, which can be normal or unusual. It categorizes these errors into syllable structure, substitution, and assimilation patterns. The text emphasizes the importance of assessing these patterns through spontaneous speech samples or single-word tests, offering insights into diagnostic criteria, etiology, and prognosis of speech sound disorders. It serves as a valuable resource for phoniatricians and speech-language pathologists.
