A word level behavioral routine for the remediation of distinctive feature errors was
developed for resolving some current theoretical criticisms of minimal-pair therapy. Seven …

This descriptive study examined the number of minimal-word-pair exemplars necessary for
19 phonologically impaired children to meet a generalization criterion. For 59% of the test …

This article considers linguistic approaches to phonological remediation that emphasize the
role of the phoneme in language. We discuss the structure and function of the phoneme by …

The effectiveness of articulation remediation procedures based on distinctive feature theory
was evaluated through the administration of an articulation program designed for this …

Two children whose speech-sound production could be described by phonologic processes
were administered a linguistically based treatment program that utilized minimal pair words …

Abstract Changes in the phonetic inventories of 34 children (ages 3; 4 to 6; 8) with functional
(nonorganic) speech disorders were analyzed in terms of distinctive feature oppositions. All …

Theoretical models and empirical investigations have focused on the roles of consistency
and variability in speech sound acquisition. A general trend that emerges from the empirical …

The purpose of this paper was to evaluate a phonological treatment program of maximal
rather than minimal feature contrasts by charting the course of learning in a child displaying …

The minimal pair approach is one of the oldest, most well-known, and widely used
approaches for phonological intervention. Words produced as homonyms by children are …
