Definition of PROMPT Therapy • Tactile based treatment strategy for reshaping the individual’s articulatory phonemes (sounds) and sequences. • PROMPT uses a different prompt for each individual phoneme. • Method applies external tactile-sensory information in order to create new and more “together” motor sounds & paths
Why Focus On Speech? • Speech is a crucial tool for learning, self-advocacy, social relationships, and participation in community. (Rogers et. al. 2006)
Brief History Of PROMPT • Developed by Deborah Hayden, MA, CCC-SLP • 1970’s • Explored PROMPT’s for Restructuring Oral Muscular Phonetic Targets • Explored how the interaction and balance or symmetry among all motor systems direction affect speech-motor systems control • Explored how effects of damage or disruption to motor paths could unbalance motor speech system development
Brief History of PROMPT (Cont’d) • 1980: 1st Empirical research of Prompt efficacy was conducted • Leading to 1st Manual of techniques for conducting and implementing PROMPT • Research attempts continue focusing on autism and motor speech disorders
Why use PROMPT Therapy? • Methods used for many speech disorders: • Non verbal children with autism • stuttering, • language formulation, • syntax, • auditory processing disorders • Global Delays • Apraxia
Description of Procedures • Technique where the therapists fingers are placed: • face, • jaw, • under the chin • Cues Given: • finger placement, • finger movement, • pressure from fingers • duration of finger placement on individual.
PROMPT Therapy • Example of finger placement
PROMPT Therapy • www.youtube.com • 1st time session, • 22 months old
Description of Procedures (Cont’d) **Claims to help facilitate articulatory postures** • Oral tactile kinesthetic cues given: • Signals varieties of movement • Includes: place of contact; • closure • manner
PROMPT’S PHILOSOPHY • Philosophy excepted in treatments: • Humans are externally & internally motivated by mental, physical, and emotional domains • Those 3 domains are fully integrated in most “typical” developing humans • Communication represents important form of integration involving these domains • Humans need to connect with each other, either mentally, physically, and emotionally
PROMPT’S PHILOSOPHY (Cont’d) • Communication may be disrupted by interruption of any or all of these domains • To strengthen weakest domain all domains must be reincorporate systematically • Restructuring should alternate focus among all domains- must be individualized • No communication intervention can produce permanent change without involving all domains
Motor Speech Treatment Hierarchy • Information used to determine target treatment’s for individuals with speech disorders • Stage 1: Body Tone: How is postural support for speech?, how is neck & head control? • Stage 2: Breath, Phonation, Voice: How is Breath support, how valving & phonation control to support speech? • Stage 3: Jaw: how is control of jaw movement
Motor Speech Treatment Hierarchy (Cont’d) • Stage 4: Face & Lips: How is control of the face? How is lip movememt? • Stage 5: Tongue: How is control of tongue movement? • Stage 6: Sequencing: Precise motor phonmene targets • Stage 7: Prosody: temporal aspects of speech production (e.g., rate & intonation/tone)
Can PROMPT Therapy Prove Effective When Implemented Alone? • PROMPT simply as a technique to elicit phonemes will not achieve the best outcomes. (Houghton, Meg)
Is PROMPT Therapy Effective? • PROMPT may be used to facilitate production, revise or change production or to integrate motor production with cognitive-linguistic function. (Prompt Institute)
HOWEVER…. • Some studies concluded: • None of the children benefited from PROMPT treatment (Dodd, B. & Bradford, A. ,2000).
