Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

I am a linguist in a linguistics department rather than a clinician in an accredited program, and thus some aspects of a typical intro speech and hearing science course are well beyond my capabilities and experience, e.g., clinical decision making, intervention, etc. My approach to teaching communication disorders to linguistics students has always been to focus on discussing the communication breakdown in relation to standard linguistic insights of a typical speaker/hearer, things like natural classes and markedness, content versus grammatical function, and so on. I ask my students to understand, for instance, what is going on when a child learns phonology or an adult brain processes language; what seems to be ‘breaking’ when a child presents a speech sound disorder or an adult presents aphasia; and how a “standard” linguistic view handle (or not) the relationship of these cases. While there are many outstanding textbooks intended to introduce the field of communication disorders to students entering the field, there are few suitable for a course from “my perspective“ aimed to linguistics students. Some years ago, I realized that I was probably going to have to write (or edit) one myself. In this presentation, I present my plans for the content and organization for this textbook.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
