  • Differentiating Speech Delay from Disorder Does It Matter?
    Top Lang Disorders Vol. 31, No. 2, pp. 96–111 Copyright c 2011 Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Differentiating Speech Delay From Disorder Does it Matter? Barbara Dodd Aim: The cognitive-linguistic abilities of 2 subgroups of children with speech impairment were compared to better understand underlying deficits that might influence effective intervention. Methods: Two groups of 23 children, aged 3;3 to 5;6, performed executive function tasks assessing cognitive flexibility and nonverbal rule abstraction. Following the system of differential diagnosis of speech disorders first described by Dodd, Leahy, and Hambly (1989), one group was identified as having delayed speech development, as their non–age-appropriate speech error patterns were typical of younger children. The other group was diagnosed as disordered because children consistently used at least one speech error pattern atypical of any age group in an assessments’ normative sample (Dodd, Zhu, Crosbie, Holm, & Ozanne, 2002). Results and Conclusions: The disordered group performed less well than the delayed group: They had poorer cognitive flexibility and difficulty abstracting nonlinguistic rules. They made more consonant errors and different types of errors. The 2 groups did not differ on measures of language, vowel accuracy, or consistency of multiple productions of the same words. The findings suggest that different interventions, reflecting knowledge of underlying deficits, might benefit specific subgroups of children with speech impairment. Key words: cognitive flexibility, error patterns, executive functions, speech delay, speech disorder LL YOUNG CHILDREN make errors 5 years. Researchers have argued that error A when pronouncing words (e.g., [pun] pattern change indicates linguistic reorgani- spoon; [tæt] cat).

  • Speech and Language Delay Introduction
    PedsCases Podcast Scripts This is a text version of a podcast from Pedscases.com on “Speech and Language Delay”. These podcasts are designed to give medical students an overview of key topics in pediatrics. The audio versions are accessible on iTunes or at www.pedcases.com/podcasts. Speech and Language Delay Developed by Emily Fong and Dr. Lyn Sonnenberg for PedsCases.com. April 19, 2018 Introduction: Emily: Hi everyone, my name is Emily Fong and I am a medical student at the University of Alberta. With me for this podcast is Dr. Lyn Sonnenberg, the Program Director for Developmental Pediatrics at the University of Alberta. Today we will be talking about an approach to Speech and Language Delays in the clinical setting. By the end of this presentation, we hope learners will be able to: 1. Define and differentiate between speech and language delay 2. Screen for speech and language delay 3. Diagnose speech and language delays, and 4. Apply potential interventions that can be used for a child with a speech and language delay. Clinical Case: Dr. Sonnenberg: Here’s our clinical case: A twelve month old girl named Hania presents to your office for her well baby check. Upon review of her developmental milestones today, you confirm that she had typical speech and language milestones up until the age of six months, with turning to voice, cooing and non-specific babbling, then she became a lot quieter and is no longer babbling. She does not have any specific words at this time, but the family is not worried because they speak both English and Arabic with her at home and have heard that bilingual children are slower to meet their language milestones.

  • Speech Delay and Its Affecting Factors (Case Study in a Child with Initial Aq)
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.6, No.32, 2015 Speech Delay and Its Affecting Factors (Case Study in a Child with Initial Aq) Syamsuardi Faculty of Education, State University of Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia Abstract Any parent wishes an appropriate development for their children. One of the parents’ great concerns is the children's speech development; they are worried if their children are late to speak. The children’s speech development is influenced by physical and environmental factors. The causes of physical factors are related to the problem but the role of environmental factors is more complex because it involves the educational role of the family as a starting point of the children's ability to speak. The children’s speech delay is viewed from environmental factors which are based on the role of parents in training the children's speech ability including insufficient time parents and children spent together, lack of understanding of developing children's potential, and parents’ speaking style following the child's speech style. Speech delay in children will affect other aspects of their development if it is not properly handled. Keywords: speech ability, parents and family environment 1. Introduction As social beings, human requires a tool to interact with one another in their lives. The speech ability as part of a means of communication among people makes the speech development, particularly in children, a concern of every parent. Many parents are worried when they find out that their child who has entered the age of 2-3 years has constraints in terms of the ability to speak.

Children with SD and children with dyslexia have previously shown deficits for distinct perceptual characteristics, including segmental acoustic structure and global acoustic structure. In this study, 35 children (ages 7-9 years) with SD, SD + dyslexia, and/or typically developing were presented with a vocoded speech recognition task to investigate their perception of global acoustic speech structure.
