Evaluation of a program for children with phonological disorders
Abstract
Language development is a process of essential importance in childhood. However, language alterations constitute a frequent issue during childhood, especially the so-called phonological disorders. In this sense, this study shows the results of a research made with schoolchildren between 5, 6 and 7 years old with phonological disorders. It was conducted a research whose objective was to check the effects of an interventional program in the language development of preschool children and primary children in the articulatory level. Fifty children took part in the research: 25 controls (13 boys and 12 girls) and 25 in the intervention group (19 boys and 6 girls). It has used a quasi-experimental design pre-post intervention with a non equivalent control group. The results show that the intervention program causes differences between the groups. It has been shown, therefore, the effectiveness of the program to improve phonological skills.Downloads
