COMPARATIVE ANALISYS OF ARTICULATION AND PHONOLOGY DISORDERS IN FUNCTION OF DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS

Abstract

Sound expression is the first impression of speech and language. Whatever its origin, false pronunciation is the first sign. In the early school years of developmental speech – if a language disorder appears, it is often followed by the disruption of the phonological – articulation segment.
This research aims to establish and compare frequency, type, and every articulate and acoustic characteristics of the disordered sound in both children with Dyslalia, as well as those with SLI.
This micro investigation was done using 71 examinees ages 6 to 8. Thirty-five examinees  were with Dyslalia and 36 had SLI. Their achievements are underlined using comparative analysis, tested with two relevant tests.
Some of the more important conclusions are:
Children with Dyslalia mostly showed distorted sounds, while those with SLI mostly substituted the disordered sound. In Dyslalia, fricatives were most affected, but in the case of SLI, all sound groups were disordered usually. In both tested groups, the type of disorder was due to the misplacement of sound formation. All children having articulation disorders while also having  sound  discrimination  have  not  only phonetic contrasts, but were also being influenced by the rest of the linguistic aspects.
