The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether there were any signs of structural and/or neuromuscular aberrations in the speech mechanisms of children who were previously diagnosed as having "functional" articulation disorders. These children were compared with a group of normally articulating children. Results of in-depth oral mechanism examinations revealed no significant differences between these groups on any of the measures made. The clinical implications of such findings are discussed.
本研究的主要目的是确定在先前被诊断为患有“功能性”构音障碍的儿童的言语机制中是否存在任何结构和/或神经肌肉异常的迹象。将这些儿童与一组正常构音的儿童进行比较。深入的口腔机制检查结果显示,在进行的任何测量中,这些组之间没有显著差异。讨论了这些发现的临床意义。
