Articulations of the Vertebral Column
0 Views •
2023
In addition to being held together by the intervertebral discs, adjacent vertebrae also articulate with each other at synovial joints formed between the superior and inferior articular processes called zygapophysial joints (facet joints). These are plane joints that provide for only limited motions between the vertebrae. The orientation of the articular processes at these joints varies in different regions of the vertebral column and serves to determine the types of motions available in each...

The McGurk Effect

Source: Laboratory of Jonathan Flombaum—Johns Hopkins University Spoken language, a singular human achievement, relies heavily on specialized perceptual mechanisms. One important feature of language perception mechanisms is that they simultaneously rely on auditory and visual information. This makes sense, because until modern times, a person could expect that most language would be heard in face-to-face interactions. And because producing specific speech sounds requires precise articulation,...

Ultrasound imaging can be used to display the shape and movements of the tongue in real time during speech. The images can be used to determine the nature of speech sound errors. Visual feedback of the tongue can be used to facilitate improvements in speech sound production in clinical populations.

Elbow Exam

Source: Robert E. Sallis, MD. Kaiser Permanente, Fontana, California, USA The elbow is a hinged joint that involves the articulation of 3 bones: the humerus, radius, and ulna. It is a much more stable joint than the shoulder, and because of that, the elbow has less range of motion. The elbow and its structures are prone to significant injuries, particularly with repetitive motion. Lateral and medial epicondylitis (also called tennis elbow and golfer's elbow) are two common diagnoses and often...
FAQs
Vocal-fold vibration and oral constriction create different acoustic conditions that distinguish speech sounds. Airflow from the lungs can set the vocal folds into vibration, or it can move through narrowed spaces shaped by the tongue, lips, teeth, and palate. Examining which configuration occurs helps psychologists relate articulatory coordination to the production of consonants and vowels.
These structures shape the vocal tract by forming specific constrictions through which airflow passes. Their coordinated positions influence the acoustic pattern of the resulting sound, allowing listeners to distinguish one speech sound from another. In psychological research, this relationship connects observable movements of the articulators with speech perception and the accurate transmission of spoken language.
Producing speech requires coordinated control of airflow, vocal-fold activity, and movements of several oral structures. Studying this coordination gives psychologists a way to examine how the brain plans and executes spoken language. It also connects speech production with motor control, because successful articulation depends on organizing multiple physical actions into a recognizable acoustic outcome.
Analysis of acoustic patterns can show how particular articulatory configurations produce recognizable speech sounds. Researchers can use this information to investigate how speech is perceived and how spoken language is produced. Comparing articulation with its acoustic result also helps link physical speech movements to communication outcomes without treating perception and production as separate processes.
In psychology, researchers study articulation to examine speech perception, language development, motor control, and communication disorders. Articulation analysis can support assessment by identifying pronunciation difficulties and can inform intervention focused on those difficulties. These applications make speech production relevant both to models of language behavior and to practical evaluation of communication.
Articulation provides a way to study how spoken language develops and how pronunciation difficulties affect communication. Researchers can examine the coordination and acoustic patterns associated with speech while considering broader processes such as perception and motor control. This information may support assessment and intervention, while also contributing to psychological models of language development and communication disorders.
