  1. Substitution patterns in the phonology of Spanish-speaking children(B.A. Goldstein, 2005) Presented by Vanessa Tobar

  2. Previous Studies • Mostly with American English-speaking children • Phonemes with the highest frequency of substitution: /θ/, /ð/, /ɹ/, /tʃ/ and /dʒ/ • Few substitutes used for each target. (Bassi, 1993; Larkins, 1983; Smit, 1993) Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  3. Consonant Cluster Patterns in English(Smit, 1993) • /kl/[k] • /s/-cluster reduction to second member* • /pl/[pw] • /pl/[pəl] Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  4. Cross-Linguistic phenomenons? Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  5. Participants • Typically developing children (3;2-4;11) • Children with phonological disorders (3;1-4;9) • L1 Puerto Rican dialect Spanish Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  6. Assessment of Phonological Disabilities • APD (Iglesias & Goldstein, 1993) • Single word phonological assessment • CVCV • Clusters • Multi-syllabic words Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  7. Things to note… • Clusters and singletons analyzed separately. • Dialectal features not errors • /kaɾta/[kalta] (“letter”) • Voiced stops fricative (inter-vocalically) • /b/, /d/, /g/  [β], [ð], [ɣ] • Syllable initial and final data combined for this study. Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  16. Results:Clusters Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  17. Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  18. Overall • Typically Developing Children: [ð], [β], /r/, /ɾ/, and [ɣ] • Children with Phonological Disorders: /s/, /r/, /tʃ/, /k/, and [β] Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  19. Questions • Would the same results yeild if children tested were bilingual in a language in which the voiced fricatives and stops actually had phonemic contrast? • Would methods have to be altered when studying a dialect that does not weaken or delete syllable final consonants? (/s/ &/n/) Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10

  20. Questions 3. Is there a characteristic within language types/groups that allow studies like this to be more generalized and widely applicable? Presented by Vanessa Tobar 11/29/10
