Generalization and articulation instruction

J Costello, S Bosler

The Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders

|August 1, 1976

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Mothers successfully taught children correct speech articulation at home. This skill generalized well to new settings and words, though previously trained words showed better results.

Background:

Articulation disorders are common in children.
Home-based speech therapy offers a promising approach.
Generalization of learned skills is crucial for treatment success.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the generalization of articulation skills learned in a home setting.
To evaluate the effectiveness of mother-administered speech therapy.
To determine if generalization varies across different settings and novel stimuli.

Main Methods:

Three young children received articulation therapy from their mothers at home.
Generalization was measured in four distinct clinical settings.
Testing included both trained and untrained stimulus words.

Main Results:

High generalization of correct articulation to non-treatment settings was observed.
Responses to untrained words were less accurate than to trained words.
Mother-administered therapy demonstrated significant effectiveness.

Conclusions:

Home-based articulation programs can effectively teach speech skills.
Generalization to new environments is achievable but may require further support.
Targeting specific phonemes with trained words yields better outcomes than novel words.
