  • 9780205198870: Acoustics of Speech Communication, The, Fundamentals, Speech Perception Theory, and Technology von J. M. Pickett  € 100,53 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm

    This is the only book to relate all three of the currently interactive areas of speech science - acoustic phonetics, speech perception, and speech technology. The book presents a gradual course: starting with a clear tutorial approach to basic acoustics of speech and then leading to successively higher levels, explaining speech perception research, the various theories of speech perception, and the modern speech technologies of computer synthesis and recognition of speech messages. The aim is to gradually bring the student through basic acoustics, spectrum analysis, vowel and consonant acoustics, and into the research literature of speech perception and technology. The technical terms, essential to understanding acoustic speech sounds and how they are produced, are all explained clearly.

    The basic acoustic theory of speech production, the Source-Filter Theory, is clarified via text and diagrams. This knowledge is then applied to interpreting spectrograms of speech examples that sample all the phonetic distinctions among vowels and consonants. Distinctive acoustical patterns for vowel and consonant perception by listeners are summarized in detail based on the research literature. Critical discussions and tables provide and summarize the theories of motor, auditory, and computer recognition of speech. Consonant and vowel recognition by the hearing-impaired is described in relation to acoustic phonetic distinctions. Techniques of speech synthesis, recognition analysis by machines, and speech technologies are thoroughly explained.

  • 9780205298341: Aphasiology, Disorders and Clinical Practice von G. Albyn Davis  € 86,62 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
    Aphasiology: Disorders and Clinical Practice offers perhaps the only balanced and comprehensive presentation of theoretical study and clinical practice of aphasiology. Modern psycholinguistics and cognitive neuropsychology are employed for developing understanding of diagnosis. Right hemisphere dysfunctions and closed head injuries are reviewed as well as aphasia caused by stroke. Current trends in managed care, functional therapy, and theory-driven treatments are reflected in the presentation of rehabilitation. KEY TOPICS: 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. Through this approach, a future clinician should acquire an appreciation for the scientific investigation that supports a clinical discipline. The book's accessible writing style minimizes the intrusion of referencing. The emphasis is on explanation and illustration, rather than on a fastidious inclusion of every study. Tables are used to summarize essential points and to provide historical overviews, while many instructional points are viewed throughout the book including a case study about the story of Martin Exeter and his family, which begins and concludes the book. MARKET: For beginning or practicing clinicians of Neurogenic Language Disorders or Speech Pathology.

  • 9780205419128: Fundamentals of Phonetics, A Practical Guide for Students von Larry H. Small  € 96,25 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm

    Centered on a strong foundation of hands-on experience, this text is designed to help instructors provide their students with the most current topics and theories related to phonetics and phonetic transcription.

    This practical introduction to linguistic phonetics focuses on teaching students the skills necessary for expert phonetic transcription of individuals with disordered speech. Through an abundance of exercises and available recordings, this text makes the learning of phonetics clear, systematic, and easy. Without auditory examples, it is difficult for instructors to describe and explain dialects and difficult for students to understand some topics associated with speech production - such as word stress and producing certain speech sounds. This text emphasizes issues tied to linguistic phonetics with an introduction to clinical phonetics, and issues involving dialectal variation of speech, a topic missing (or dated) in most texts.

  • 9780205402878: Introduction to Phoenetics and Phonology von Jacqueline Bauman-Waengler  € 70,57 [D]*  Lieferbar

    Introduction to Phonetics and Phonology: From Concepts to Transcription provides readers with a basic foundation in both phonetics and phonology.  The book has two goals:  the first is to connect phonetics and phonology into a conceptual unity and the second is to demonstrate the practical relevance of phonetics, phonology, and phonetic transcription for beginning students in communication disorders and related disciplines, such as linguistics or education. 

     

    Written with an abundance of real-life examples, this first edition provides readers with a large base of information, from the basic definitions of phonetics and phonology to their practical, clinical applications when analyzing speech samples, demonstrating to future speech language practioners the interconnection between these two areas of of the field.  The text's uniqueness lies in the continuous application of the presented information to practical examples, reinforcing to students the relevance of this knowledge to clinical practice while providing the instructor with practical examples which can be used to demonstrate basic principles.

     

    An important feature of this book is the inclusion of a phonetic transcription workbook.  This workbook guides the student through a systematic learning process beginning with the identification of sounds within words, as opposed to letters, to transcribing multisyllabic words and short phrases.  The process is a step-by-step one in which vowels and consonants are introduced in small groups, words are selected based on these sounds, followed by listening and transcription practice.  Additional sounds are added systematically and each unit builds upon the next. The workbook will provide the student with many opportunities to learn phonetic transcription in an orderly process.               

     

    Additional coverage includes:

    • A brief overview of acoustic phonetics relative to the production features of vowels and consonants.
    • An introduction to phonetic transcription to aid student understanding of the pertinence of phonetic transcription when one is gathering information about speech, and a detailed description of production features of vowels and consonants.  This text will enable a beginning student to identify and classify each of the vowels and consonants of American English. 
    • A lengthy discussion of dialect that covers both popular and professional concepts about dialect as well as definitions of standard English, vernacular English, regional, and social/ethnic dialects.   The chapter on dialects also covers vowl shifts and the most recent research on African American Vernacular English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Hmong, Cantonese, Korean, and Arabic.  
    • Coverage of coarticulation, assimilation, and suprasegmental or prosodic variations which occur in continuous speech.  Diacritics are discussed in detail.  Examples are given for each, drawing from practical, real-life examples. 
    • Unique coverage of three theoretical models of phonological development which address speech sound development in completely different ways.  Most textbooks do not include phonological development or recent theoretical models such as the nonlinear approaches.

  • 9780205270880: Language and Reading Disabilities von Hugh W. Catts, Alan G. Kamhi  € 59,87 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
    Language acquisition is one of the key milestones in early childhood development. So much of a child's future social and intellectual development hinges on this milestone, that its delay can create a domino effect that begins with isolation and withdrawal, turns into poor academic performance, and eventually leads to the development of learning disabilities and social problems. Recent research has revealed a dramatic link between the development of spoken language and written language among children, and the importance of language acquisition to basic reading skills. As more research becomes available about how children learn to read, evidence mounts in support of the language basis of reading disabilities. With a strong clinical and research basis, this book provides a broad perspective of language problems associated with reading disabilities. KEY TOPICS: This book compares spoken and written language, noting similarities and differences. The acquisition of reading, reading-related language abilities, and writing disorders are discussed. In the second half of the book, recognized experts in the areas of assessment and remediation of reading and writing disorders discuss the identification, assessment, and treatment of reading and writing disorders. MARKET: Educators, special educators, speech pathologists, reading and language instructors, curriculum specialists, and parents.
