Overview

"Phonetic Science for Clinical Practice, Second Edition is designed to serve as an introductory, one-term textbook for undergraduate phonetics courses in communication sciences and disorders. The text introduces the fundamental tool of transcription, the International Phonetic Alphabet, while also presenting the science underlying that set of symbols. The goal of this text is to teach students how to think about the data being transcribed-in other words, how to think like a phonetician. Every chapter begins with learning objectives and an ""Applied Science"" feature, which presents a research- or clinical-based question that can be answered by applying the phonetic science concepts covered in that chapter. By the end of the chapter, students will revisit the question and be asked to solve the problem posed. Students studying communication sciences and disorders, practicing speech-language pathologists, and audiologists will be more successful in their clinical work if they understand the science that underlies the tool of transcription. Each chapter also offers several diverse clinical examples to review the application of concepts covered. Key Features Focused on practical, clinical application and the information needed for clinical practice ""Did You Get It?"" comprehension checks on the material throughout each chapter ""Applied Science"" sections at the beginning and end each chapter to increase students' curiosity about the topic of the chapter, concluding with real-world clinical solutions Flashcards for phonetic transcription practice New to the Second Edition Transcription readiness quiz (Chapter 1) with accompanying tutorials New information about disordered speech and developmental speech errors that affect consonants (Chapter 7) and new section about developmental speech errors that affect vowels (Chapter 8) 12 new audio case studies that students can use to practice transcribing errors in typical speech development 12 new video case studies that students can use to practice transcribing disordered speech Quiz for students who have previously completed a phonetics course, so instructors can assess their retention of phonetics knowledge and skills PluralPlus Online Ancillary Materials For instructors: PowerPoint lecture slides, exam review slides, chapter reviews, test bank, course syllabus/calendar, a self-assessment quiz for students to take prior to starting the course, an assessment quiz to test phonetics knowledge and skills during the course, videos with phonetic transcription tutorial For students: audio files for IPA symbols and particular words with audio map, glossary eFlashcards, mnemonic flashcards, list of related resources, printable study aids, spectrograms, transcription readiness quiz"

Author Information

Kathy J. Jakielski, PhD, CCC-SLP, ASHA Fellow, is Professor Emerita in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois. With phonetic science undergirding all her work, she has over 40 years of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults with severe speech impairment, and over 30 years of research experience in genetic bases, differential diagnosis, and intervention efficacy on children with speech sound disorders, including childhood apraxia of speech. Most importantly, she taught an introduction to phonetics course to undergraduate students continuously for over 25 years. After retiring from academia in the summer of 2022, she and her husband moved to Cambodia to work as full-time volunteers for several non-governmental organizations. Always the phonetics student, she now spends her free time trying to accurately transcribe, understand, and speak Khmer. **** Christina E. Gildersleeve-Neumann, PhD, CCC-SLP, ASHA Fellow, is Professor and Department Chair in the Speech and Hearing Sciences Department at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon. She first fell in love with phonetics when she was an undergraduate majoring in German, discovering how a set of symbols could capture the spoken similarities and differences between the many languages she was dabbling in then. This fascination with sound carried her through a first career in international education, later becoming her focus as a graduate student discovering the field of communication sciences and disorders. She has now spent 27 years as a speech-language pathologist and 23 years as a professor, focusing her research, clinical, and academic expertise on speech sound development and disorders in monolingual and bilingual children. The first class she ever taught was phonetics, and it remains her favorite to this day.
