Worldwide, 15 million babies are "born too soon" every year (Blencowe et al., 2012; Howson et al., 2013). Remarkably, prematurity survival rates now exceed 93% across all countries. More than 360,000 preterm babies survived in the United States in 2020; 10% of all births (Blencowe et al., 2012; Howson et al., 2013). While this is an…

Peer reviewedAbraham, Suzanne; Weiner, Frederick – Volta Review, 1985
The efficacy of speech training using meaningful versus nonmeaningful verbal stimuli with 10 severely and profoundly hearing-impaired elementary children was investigated. Results indicated that both syllable and word training improved imitative production of target phonemes in trained contexts. Word training was significantly more effective for…

Peer reviewedAlbertini, John A.; And Others – Volta Review, 1983
The relative effectiveness of individual speech therapy (8 students) versus small group therapy (18 students) was evaluated with hearing impaired young adults who had articulation problems. Articulation skill mastery, improvement in speech intelligibility, and quantity and type of utterances were examined. Only quantity of utterances distinguished…

Twenty severely to profoundly hearing-impaired high school students (ages 15-19) evidenced marked improvement in average vocal pitch after implementation of a systematic curriculum that integrated visual and tactile sensory aids into daily speech training. Those using a visual display showed greatest progress. The eight participating teachers…

Peer reviewedKosky, Christine; Boothroyd, Arthur – Volta Review, 2001
Sixteen children with moderate to profound sensorineural hearing loss were trained on the production and auditory perception of sibilants over two 2-week periods. Perception performance improved significantly during training periods with a small amount of carryover to non-training contrast periods. Improvements in production performance occurred…

Peer reviewedFletcher, Samuel G. – Volta Review, 1989
The paper describes dynamic orometric instrumentation and procedures developed to measure, display, and guide changes in vowel and consonant production through visual articulatory modeling and feedback routines. Sensors are placed in the mouth to detect tongue shapes, positions, and actions during speech of hearing-impaired talkers, and online…
