Abstract
Currently there is no general consensus regarding the treatment of articulatory errors. Rather, a variety of technical procedures are available some of which are intuitively based, while others seem to rest on a firm theoretical foundation. The primary focus of this chapter is to explore treatment considerations. The discussion will be restricted to procedures of learning, omitting treatments specific to medically linked articulation errors. Additionally, the special role of auditory knowledge will be considered.
