Question 3

Match between columns
                        Premises: Best technique to determine whether there is an occult submucous cleft
Gives the best indication of the location of the opening
Best technique to visualize the size of the tonsils
Is the best for evaluating the entire length of the posterior pharyngeal wall
Can provide objective data regarding the approximate size of the velopharyngeal orifice
Is the best for evaluating for a medialized carotid artery
Best technique to determine whether there is an overt submucous cleft
Requires the use of barium
Gives a measure of nasal airway resistance
Instrumental procedure that can give false negative looks like there is closure when there is not)
Can provide objective data regarding phoneme-specific nasal emission
Allows direct visualization of the vocal folds
Gives a measure of acoustic energy
Uses a hydrokinetic formula to determine orifice size
Uses the SNAP test
Instrumental procedure that does not allow examination of connected speech

Question 10

Match between columns
                        Premises: Associated with hypernasality and weak consonants
Primarily noted on nasal consonants
Can be an obligatory error
Can be due to microstomia
Compensatory production that is often co-articulated
Production that will cause audible nasal emission
Can be caused by enlarged tonsils
May cause phoneme-specific nasal emission
Occurs on voiceless consonants but is low in intensity
Can be caused by adenoid hypertrophy
Secondary to significant nasal emission
May be a substitution not distortion) for /s/
Often due to anterior crowding of the tongue tip
When severe, is often inaudible
Due to a small velopharyngeal opening
Primarily affects vowels
Common with apraxia of speech
Often caused by a Class III malocclusion
Overflow muscle reaction to effort of trying to achieve velopharyngeal closure
