Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine if there are differences in the number of vowel errors across age groups in children diagnosed with childhood apraxia of speech. The study retrospectively examined the clinical database from the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center Interdisciplinary Apraxia Clinic. The participants were divided into three groups: toddler, preschool, and school age. Vowel errors were counted using the raw scores on three sections of the Kauffman Speech Praxis Test: pure vowels, vowel-to-vowel movement and consonant-to-vowel movement. It was found that age did not play a significant role in the number of vowel errors present across the age groups.
