November 1, 2023 (Rockville, MD) The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) announces today the free, online availability of new checklists that detail communication (speech, language, and hearing) milestones for children ages birth to 5 years as well as feeding and swallowing milestones for children ages birth to 3 years. These milestones provide parents and caregivers with a ...

Gordon-Brannan & Hodson (2000) determined that children above the age of 4;0 with speech intelligibility score below 66% should be considered as candidates for intervention. What this means is that if fewer than 2/3 of the utterances of a child aged 4;0 in conversation with an unfamiliar listener can be understood by that listener, then ...

of age with a linear increase to about 95% by 9 years of age. Standard deviations were reported in this article and generally showed a trend of decreased variability with age. Similarly, Flipsen (2006) examined intelligibility of conversational speech of 320 children between 3 and 8 years of age using speech samples that were transcribed by experts

Intelligibility can be defined as “the extent to which an acoustic signal, generated by a speaker, can be correctly recovered by a listener” (Kent, Weismer, Kent, & Rosenbek, 1989). In other words, intelligibility is how well the speaker’s speech is understood by the listener. Two parties are involved in the measurement of intelligibility.
The single-treatment focus lightens the speaker’s cognitive load, which, along with increased repetitions of practice, facilitates learning. A 2012 study in ASHA’s Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research (JSLHR), for example, found evidence of post-LSVT speech improvements in children with dysarthria. Speech Intelligibility Treatment
The study of speech intelligibility has received increasing large-scale attention from a developmental perspective. In developing the Test of Children's Speech (TOCS+; Hodge & Daniels, 2007) and establishing its validity, Hodge and Gotzke (2014) examined intelligibility and speaking rate in typically developing English-speaking children (n = 48, ages 3–6 years).
The age of steepest growth for the 50th percentile was 30-31 months for both single-word and multiword intelligibility and was later for children in lower percentiles. The maximum growth rate was 1.7 intelligibility percentage points per month for single words and 2.5 intelligibility percentage points per month for multiword intelligibility.
So, I made this FREE chart using ASHA standards and the NEW Crowe & McLeod Norms (2020)! Updated: 2/21/22. What is speech intelligibility? Speech intelligibility is how much information familiar and unfamiliar listeners can understand when a child is speaking. What is typical for speech intelligibility development? Children UNDER the age of 18 ...
Intelligibility is a term used by a speech-language pathologist (SLP) to describe the ease with which one’s speech can be understood by the listener. The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) describes intelligibility as a perceptual judgment based on a child’s spontaneous speech.
Results: The age range for 50% single-word intelligibility was 31–47 months (50th–5th percentiles), the age range for 75% single-word intelligibility was 49 –87 months, and the age range for 90% intelligibility for single words was 83 –120+ months. The same milestones were attained for multiword intelligibility at
A recent small-scale cross-sectional study by Hodge and Gotzke (2014a) examining transcription intelligibility of 12 typically developing children at the ages of 3, 4, 5, and 6 years by naïve listeners suggests that intelligibility on the TOCS for single words increased linearly from 70% at age 3 years to 87% at age 6 years, and for sentences ...
Multiword intelligibility grew at a faster rate than single-word intelligibility. Conclusions Children make steady progress in intelligibility development through 47 months, and only a small number of children approach 100% intelligibility by this age. Intelligibility continues to develop past the fourth year of life.
Various researchers have examined the speech intelligibility of CI and/or HA users when compared to children with normal hearing, as judged by speech-language pathologists and/or naïve listeners (Baudonck et al., Citation 2010; Chin et al., Citation 2003; Flipsen, Citation 2008; Huang et al., Citation 2005; Montag et al., Citation 2014 ...
