Treating older children and adolescents who have difficulty
correctly producing /r/ sounds remains an ongoing source of
frustration for many clinicians. The new professional resource
Remediation of /r/ for Speech-Language Pathologists provides the
most up-to-date information on the current understanding of /r/ and
the related errors, along with a range of treatment options, to
offer a comprehensive tool for Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs)
treating this complex issue. In addition to a discussion of
traditional articulation therapy and ways to improve the
administration of this technique, this practical text offers a
detailed review and explanation of several very promising
alternative approaches. Written in what has been described as Dr.
Flipsen's "folksy" style, this text is designed for the busy
clinician. The first five chapters of Remediation of /r/ for
Speech-Language Pathologists delve into the basic information
needed to treat /r/. The next six chapters each tackle a specific
treatment option. The treatment section begins with a
re-examination of traditional articulation therapy and uses
research evidence to help clinicians to fine-tune its application.
It then progresses to discussing more significant modifications to
traditional therapy and introduces several newer approaches to
modifying the feedback being provided to the client. For each
treatment option, the author presents a solid rationale and the
latest evidence, along with practical strategies for their
implementation. The final chapter discusses methods for deciding
which remediation method to choose when working with /r/ errors.
For forty years, this textbook has been the gold-standard resource
for providing speech-language pathologists with a strong foundation
of knowledge on speech sound disorders. Previously published as
Articulation and Phonological Disorders, this core text is now in
its ninth edition, fully updated and expanded to meet the needs of
today’s clinicians as they work with children of all ages. A
cornerstone of every SLP’s professional preparation, the new
edition of this book offers the most up-to-date, comprehensive
coverage of contemporary clinical literature and the best available
treatments for speech sound disorders. With a focus on
evidence-based practice, the expert authors and contributors
present essential information and guidelines on a broad range of
topics, from the basics of typical speech production to recommended
practices for assessment and intervention. Updates include new and
expanded chapters on timely topics, new instructor materials and
student-friendly features, and helpful guidance for clinicians
serving an increasingly diverse population. With this authoritative
synthesis of research and practice, the next generation of SLPs
will have the broad and deep knowledge they need to understand
speech sound disorders and provide children with the best possible
supports and interventions. WHAT’S NEW: All chapters fully
