Whole-Word Phonology and Templates: Trap, Bootstrap, or Some of Each?

Velleman, Shelley L.; Vihman, Marilyn M.

Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, v33 n1 p9-23 Jan 2002

Cognitive mechanisms that may account for the phenomena of whole-word phonology and phonological templates in children are described and strategies for identifying whole-word phonological patterns in normal and disordered phonologies are proposed. Intervention strategies that draw on these same mechanisms as a way to overcome their inappropriate persistence are recommended. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
