Questions and Answers

According to the DSM-5, specific learning disorders are characterized by academic skills that are substantially below those expected for an individual’s chronologic age, which have persisted for at least how many months despite targeted interventions?

  • 12 months
  • 3 months
  • 9 months
  • 6 months (correct)

    • Under the new DSM-5 definition, children with slower learning may now qualify for special education services if their academic achievement is below that expected for their:

  • Grade level
  • Cognitive abilities (correct)
  • Physical abilities
  • IQ level

    • Children with slower learning, despite having academic achievement scores that are below grade level, may not have qualified for special education services previously because they did not show a discrepancy between:

  • Cognitive abilities and IQ level
  • Language proficiency and academic achievement
  • Cognitive abilities and academic achievement (correct)
  • Intellectual disability and academic achievement

    • The DSM-5 definition of specific learning disorders now requires lack of response to intervention before considering a child to have a learning disability by many school districts, aiming to provide the same remedial special education services to children with slower learning. This change is mainly based on the effectiveness of interventions in improving:

    Study Notes

    Childhood Language Disorders and Speech Impairments

    • Childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is caused by central nervous system deficits affecting speech motor movements, not muscle weakness.
    • Children with CAS struggle with spontaneous production of sounds, syllables, and words, often with a history of delayed cooing and babbling.
    • Dysarthria is a motor disorder resulting from impaired speech muscles, leading to slow speech, poor articulation, and changes in voice quality.
    • Dysarthria is commonly observed in children with cerebral palsy (CP).
    • Discrepant delays in language development are described as a dissociation, with language development being a strong predictor of cognitive potential and social functioning.
    • Language delay occurs when language development progresses slower than typical, more frequent in boys and with family history of language disorders.
    • Language delays should not be attributed to birth order or exposure to multiple languages.
    • Many children with speech and language delays catch up by age 4, but some continue to exhibit persistent language delays.
    • Preschool-aged children with dissociated language delays meet DSM-5 criteria for a language disorder diagnosis.
    • Children with language disorders struggle to express themselves and understand others, with deficits in various components of language.
    • Language disorders are not secondary to hearing loss or global developmental delay, and children with this disorder are not globally delayed.
    • Children with language disorders are at increased risk of language-based learning difficulties, emotional, and behavioral problems.

    Speech and Language Development Red Flags

    • Red flags for speech and language delay include milestones at 12, 16, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months, with examples at each age.
    • Surveillance for speech and language milestones should be a routine part of developmental checks at well-child visits.
    • Standardized screening tests such as the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) and Parents' Evaluation of Developmental Status (PEDS) can identify children needing further evaluation.
    • Referrals for speech and language evaluation should be made once a concern is identified.
    • Boys with Klinefelter syndrome (XXY) often present with language disorders and language-based learning disabilities.
    • The differential diagnosis for delayed speech and language development includes various disorders and hearing loss.
    • Language stimulation in the environment is crucial for language development, and children from lower-income homes hear fewer words than those from middle- or high-income settings.
    • Parent-child interaction quality is crucial for language development regardless of socioeconomic status.
    • Speech disorders are defined as dissociated delays in speech development and include voice disorder, fluency disorder, phonologic disorder, apraxia of speech, and dysarthria.
    • Voice disorder involves deficits in pitch, loudness, or vocal quality and may be secondary to anatomical differences.
    • Fluency disorder in children may resolve without intervention by 4 years of age, but persistent dysfluency may indicate stuttering and require evaluation and treatment.
    • Phonologic disorder involves errors in pronunciation when using new words, with specific speech sounds expected to be mastered by certain ages.

    Speech-Language Pathologists Industry Impact and Overview

    • The COVID-19 pandemic led to a shift to remote service delivery for Speech-Language Pathologists to limit the spread of the virus, particularly among vulnerable populations, with encouragement from new policies by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
    • Industry operators are affected by new guidelines for businesses issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
    • The federal government passed significant stimulus measures, including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act in 2020 and the American Recovery Act (ARA) in 2021, to aid the economy, which apply to industry operators.
    • The Speech-Language Pathologists industry primarily evaluates, diagnoses, and treats speech, language, cognitive communication, and swallowing disorders, with major activities including monitoring patients' progress, developing treatment plans, and instructing clients in communication techniques.
    • The major products and services in the industry include addressing hearing loss, auditory processing disorder, autism spectrum disorder, and various speech and language disorders.
    • The industry's supply chain includes related fields such as psychologists, social workers, physical therapists, and mental health and substance abuse clinics.
    • Key statistics show the industry generated $4.6 billion in revenue, experienced 4.0% annual growth from 2016-2021, and had 44,219 businesses operating within it.
    • The industry has a low life cycle growth, high capital intensity, low industry globalization, and low industry concentration, with medium revenue volatility and medium technology change.
    • Key trends include increased government funding for primary and secondary education, rising employment, and an expected growth in the number of K-12 students during the outlook period.
    • The industry faces challenges such as falling Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates and is influenced by increased access to health insurance enabling individuals to afford industry services.
    • The industry has low barriers to entry, high competition, and high barriers to entry, and opportunities for high revenue growth are driven by federal funding for Medicare and Medicaid.
    • The industry's SWOT analysis highlights strengths like a high and steady level of assistance growth and opportunities for high revenue growth, while facing threats such as low outlier growth and low performance drivers.
