Here is the final summary paragraph of our chapter
In
summary, in this chapter, we have outlined the value of a carefully
developed system for describing interventions, such as the Phonological
Intervention Taxonomy, which builds on the rich history of Ingram’s work
in child phonology. We did this primarily by illustrating how explicit,
detailed descriptions of intervention structure can facilitate
comparisons that can help the clinician make clearer decisions about
what intervention may meet a child’s needs. In addition, we have
presented thoughts about how such a taxonomy might be applied with the
goals of increasing accuracy in the use of interventions, the
clinician’s understanding of their own readiness to learn and use an
intervention, and the field’s development of more rationally based
curricula for beginning clinicians. Finally, we suggest research efforts
that may lead to a better understanding of how interventions work and
for whom they might work best.
The Phonological Intervention Taxonomy was originally described here:
