Speech Motor Chaining

 

 

Speech Motor Chaining Web Application

  • A version of the Web Application for use by Speech-Language clinicians is available at SpeechLink.  A version of the Web Application for use by researchers and by the Syracuse University/Gebbie Clinic community is available here
  • The Speech Motor Chaining web application enables users to create client profiles, configure treatment parameters, select treatment targets, and record session performance. The website allows you to customize treatment options for clients.
  • Speech Motor Chaining guides the clinician in navigating the multiple decisions needed to take a client from establishment to generalization. The treatment automatically adjusts practice difficulty based on a client’s performance during the session, by adapting these principles of motor learning:
    •  Linguistic complexity of the practice trial (from syllables to sentences)
    •  Ordered or random grouping of trials
    •  Prosodic variation of trials
    •  Amount of clinician feedback
    •  Amount of detail in the clincian’s feedback
    •  Amount of self-monitoring
