Severity of Articulation Disorders

<p>Records, of thirty male and thirty female students, were surveyed to compare duration of time enrolled in articulatory therapy to the severity of the problem. The records were checked for severity rating, sex, race, age, and duration of time in program. Only students between the ages of five and seven years of age were included in this study. Students had to be enrolled for articulation only, no other exceptionality or abnormality, and on grade level equivalent to age. The Frisbie Educational Statistics Computer Program was used to compute means, standard deviations, and t test in computing the results, nonе of which supported the hypothesis that a relationship existed between the severity of the disorder and the duration of time enrolled in therapy for an articulation disorder. The survey did reveal that males are enrolled longer than females.</p>
