apraxia of speech
a neurogenic speech disorder resulting from impairment of the capacity to program or access sensorimotor commands for the positioning and movement of muscles for the volitional production of speech
true
True or false: Apraxia of speech can occur without significant weakness or neuromuscular slowness
False! If someone comes to you and is undiagnosed, make the appropriate referrals!!
True or false: As an SLP, you can make a medical diagnosis

False! They CAN move their tongue for eating, just not for SPEECH
True or false: Individuals with AOS cannot move their tongue to lick a lollipop or eat
