Abstract

Purpose: To explore Swedish clinical practice regarding assessment of suspected Speech Sound Disorders (SSD) in children.

Methods: A web-based questionnaire, regarding assessment of SSD in children 4;6-6;11 (years; months), was distributed to Swedish speech-language pathologists (SLPs) through social media and online forums. The questions concerned the frequency and manner of assessment for seven assessment components, chosen based on a review of international recommendations for SSD assessment.

Results: A total of 131 SLPs responded to the questionnaire. The results show that Swedish SSD assessment practices vary with regards to the frequency and manner of assessment for many components. Speech output is frequently assessed while speech perception, phonological awareness and oral-motor function are assessed less frequently. A variety of manners of assessment, for example, standardised tests, non-standardised material, and informal assessment procedures, such as observation, are utilized by respondents.

Conclusions: Swedish SSD assessment practices are variable. The present paper reveals areas for development within SLP practice and education programmes, and provides a new perspective on present praxis with regards to the assessment of suspected SSD in Sweden.

瑞典语言病理学家在评估语音障碍方面的实践调查。

目的:探讨瑞典儿童疑似语音障碍(SSD)评估的临床实践。方法:采用基于网络的问卷调查方法，对4岁、6-6岁、11岁和11岁儿童的SSD进行评估。通过社交媒体和在线论坛分发给瑞典语言病理学家(slp)。这些问题涉及七个评估部分的评估频率和方式，这些评估部分是根据审查关于可持续发展战略评估的国际建议而选择的。结果:共有131名slp参与问卷调查。结果表明，瑞典的SSD评估实践在许多组件的评估频率和方式方面有所不同。语音输出经常被评估，而语音感知、语音意识和口腔运动功能的评估频率较低。答复者采用了各种评估方式，例如标准化测试、非标准化材料和非正式评估程序，例如观察。结论:瑞典SSD评估实践是可变的。本论文揭示了SLP实践和教育方案中的发展领域，并提供了关于瑞典疑似SSD评估的当前实践的新观点。
