Characteristics of mathematic disorders. Neuropsychological and Cognitivist Theories of Developmental Dyscalculia

Vasile Radu PREDA
Abstract

The neuropsychological and cognitivist theories of developmental dyscalculia. This article synthesizes, on the one hand, the theoretical and empirical neuropsychological theories concerning developmental dyscalculia. The several forms of cognitive numerical representation are defined, and the roles the various forms of numerical processing and problem solving are considered. The focus is on subtypes of children with developmental dyscalculia and on particular patterns of academic deficits. The evolution of children’s production (patterns of correct responses and errors) is interpreted through the model of number and calculation processing developed by neuropsychology models for development of arithmetical abilities.

Keywords: developmental dyscalculia, neuropsychology models, mathematical difficulties, numerical representation, numerical processing, educational assessment.

Particularități ale dezvoltării limbajului și comunicării și intervenției logopedice la copilul cu tulburare reactivă de atașament

Specific features in speech and language development as well as in speech therapy approach for children with reactive

Anca LĂPUȘNEANU, Carmen COSTEA-BĂRLUȚIU
Abstract

Reactive attachment disorder shows variations in the development of children’s early language and communication skills, difficulty forming attachments, inability to form relationships with others. Forming the ability to develop and use language is a challenge in the therapeutic process of the child with reactive attachment disorder. Forming a secure attachment to the caregiver and creating a therapeutic bond is essential in the intervention. The aim of the present longitudinal case study is to outline the developmental language profile of children with reactive attachment disorder. One single case was assessed at age 3 and a differential diagnosis with ASD was made. Several interim assessments were conducted to assess language and social interaction through play. The final evaluation tracks the areas of development in which progress was made and the language components acquired by attaining the objectives proposed in the intervention plan.

Keywords: reactive attachment disorder, case study, intervention plan, early language development

Speech and language therpay – longitudinal approach in Smith Magenis Syndrome. Case study

Carolina Bodea HAȚEGAN, Nicoleta Valentina KISS, Dorina Anca TALAȘ, Raluca Nicoleta TRIFU
Abstract

This report examines the longitudinal speech therapy approach for Smith-Magenis Syndrome (SMS), a rare genetic disorder caused by RAI1 gene deletion/mutation (17p11.2). SMS impacts cognition, behavior, sleep, and motor functions, requiring a multidisciplinary intervention.
The case study of M., a 7-year-old girl, highlights significant articulation, literacy, and emotional progress through targeted speech therapy, motor training, and cognitive support. Despite persistent writing and pronunciation challenges, therapy improved communication, academic performance, and self-confidence. The findings stress the importance of early and structured intervention for SMS patients.

Keywords: Smith Magenis syndrome, speech and language therapy, educational approach, articulation disorders, multidisciplinary intervention

Language development in preschoolers by using digital resources

Ana SABOU
Abstract

This article aims to emphasize the developmental characteristics of language in preschool children. It contains some important examples of digital resources that are useful in speech therapy. The study sample consisted of 20 preschoolers, aged between 5-6 years, from a kindergarten. The evaluation was performed using the curriculum Talk. Then was implemented a speech intervention program that includes learning games developed by using different digital resources. For the final evaluation the same assessment tool.

Utilizarea organizatorilor grafici în dezvoltarea competențelor de comunicare verbală la elevii cu dizabilitate auditivă

Use of graphic organizers in the development of verbal communication skills among students with hearing disabilities

Camelia NEAGU
Abstract

This research paper aims to evaluate the effectiveness of methods based on graphic organizers in the development of communication skills of students with hearing disabilities, namely in functional communication, verbal interactions, receptive language and expressive language. Starting from the general objective of the paper, which is to evaluate the formative role of graphic organizer-based methods in the development of communication skills of students hearing disabilities, I aimed to select a series of graphic organizers used in interactive teaching methods, to integrate them in specific activities of complex and integrated educational therapy and to evaluate the results obtained by the children as a result of the intervention.

The use of a music therapy program to improve communication in students with intellectual disability

Cristina BĂLAȘ-BACONSCHI, Mihaela ȚAMBREA
Abstract

The development of language competence, of verbal skills and the enhancement of verbal communication in children with intellectual disabilities that leads to school and social inclusion requires a complex approach. Expressive language in children with intellectual disabilities is significantly related to verbal comprehension, to vocabulary, and also to the language difficulties of those children and to their early involvement in intervention programs. The present study is focused on the use of a music therapy program for five students with intellectual disabilities, communication difficulties and behavior disorders due to different causes, aged between 11 and 12. Measures before and after the implementation of the program were used to assess the psychological age of language and auditive understanding of language, the results showing significant improvements of verbal and non-verbal communication, the students proving in the same time a greater desire to interact with peers. As a result, students also acquired a greater ability of using gestures, mimics and other forms of non-verbal communication.

Program pentru dezvoltarea achizițiilor morfologice în contextul dizabilității auditive

Program for the development of morphological acquisitions in the context of hearing disability

Maria-Emilia BRIA
Abstract

In this paper, the emphasis was placed on building a „Program for the Development of Morphological Acquisitions for Students with Hearing Impairments” in the secondary school cycle, which would allow the investigation of morphological category reception skills among children with hearing disabilities, being a good material for identifying learning difficulties.
In this research, individual studies were relevant because they represent experiences that correctly illustrate the investigations done.

Aplicații psihopedagogice pentru dezvoltarea abilităților sintagmatice în contextul TSA

Psychopedagogical approaches for developing sintagmatic abilities in children with ASD

Diandra-Elena IPATE-BERCEA
Abstract

The study examines the role of the Color Semantic method in enhancing syntagmatic, grammatical, and discursive skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). By applying this method, the research aims to reduce echolalia and expand both active and passive vocabulary. The theoretical framework includes an overview of ASD, its characteristics, prevalence, and impact on communication, as well as key diagnostic criteria. It also explores language development theories, highlighting the influence of phonology, semantics, syntax, and pragmatics.
Further, the study delves into language disorders in ASD, discussing difficulties in semantic integration, oral narrative production, and social communication. It emphasizes the importance of early intervention in improving social skills such as shared attention and eye contact. Various speech therapy interventions are presented, including traditional approaches like articulatory therapy and modern methods such as Alternative and Augmentative Communication (AAC) and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). The Color Semantic method is highlighted for its structured approach in language therapy.
The practical research focuses on a single-subject qualitative study to assess the effectiveness of the Color Semantic method in enhancing expressive and receptive language skills. The findings indicate significant improvements in sentence structure, vocabulary use, and reduced echolalia. The final chapter outlines key conclusions, practical recommendations for speech therapy, and study limitations, emphasizing the need for further research to validate these findings across a broader population.
