Popis: | Using electromagnetic articulography, the lips, the tip of the tongue, and the tongue dorsum were tracked during repetitions of the syllables [pa], [ta] and [ka] in 10 speakers with dysarthria following severe traumatic brain injury and in 10 age-matched control subjects. When asked to produce the syllable trains as fast as possible, the patient group showed a rather homogeneous pattern of movement abnormalities including prolonged syllable durations and reduced peak velocity/amplitude ratios. Most presumably, limited speed generation gives rise to the impaired ability to increase speech rate. During the habitual speaking condition, reduced velocity/amplitude ratios were restricted to the tongue tip and tongue dorsum. Obviously, the tongue and the lips are differentially affected in dysarthria following severe traumatic brain injury. |
