Compensatory Physiologic Phonetics for the Glossectomee

Skelly, Madge; And Others

Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 36, 1, 101-14, Feb 71

Compensatory articulation patterns on the glossal phonemes were developed clinically in a study of 14 total and 11 partial glossectomees. Following therapy, intelligibility of the former increased from 0-8 percent on admission to 18-24 percent intelligibility; the latter group improved from 6-24 percent to 24-46 percent intelligibility.
