Early intervention for speech and language development in preterm infants. Implications of orofacial motor training

Cătălina ALECSANDRESCU
Abstract

The purpose of this study was language development in preterm infants through early intervention and the implications of orofacial mobilization. Three preemie children between the aged between 2 and 3 years old took part in this study. With the help of language assessment scales, language development levels were determined. The evaluation scales applied were: Scale for establishing the level of language development (Păunescu, 1984), Integrated Development Scale, Portage Scale-language area, Curriculum Carolina-language area. For orofacial mobilization, the Z vibe Kit and orofacial massage along the Castillo-Morales route were used. By applying the orofacial mobilization, a better coordination of the facial muscles was aimed at emitting the sounds as correctly as possible, following the words and sentences. The results of this study show us the importance of the early intervention plan on language, but also on orofacial mobilization.

TThe relation between language development and psychomotricity in the context of intellectual disability

Crina Ramona POP
Abstract

This research is divided in two parts: the theoretical part and the practical part. The theoretical part aimed some essential elements, as definitions, classifications, characteristics of intellectual disability, language disorders and psychomotricity disorders.
The practical part contains the research methodology, objectives, assumption, the description of the participants (subjects) and the methods and the materials used. Next the expound section of the design, the interventions plan and the conclusions resulted after the carry on activities.
Like is shown in the title, the research was headed to identify the implications that psychomotricity disorders exert upon the language disorders on children with intellectual disability. The language and the psychomotricity represent two essential elements of the life and it is important to know the manner of their interactions and implications upon the children with intellectual disability. More is significant to discover the most efficient method of intervention to contribute in this way at the elimination or at least at the reduction of the complications. Here I got the conclusion that the most efficient method of intervention is to group the language activities with the psychomotricity activities. Of course, all the activities are organized in an attractive manner based on games so that they captivate and motivate the children to take part operatively in the activities. After the intervention plans were applied it was established the improvement of the children in the language and psychomotricity abilities.

Speech therapy intervention program for language development in preschoolers

Iulia-Maria PAȘCALĂU (SICOE)
Abstract

TThis paper aims to identify the developmental characteristics of language in preschool children, capturing the impact of the speech therapy program on language development, and utilizing the principles of the TALK program in speech therapy intervention. The study sample consisted of 22 preschoolers, aged between 5-6 years, from a kindergarten in Cluj-Napoca. After dividing the participants into two groups, control and experimental, the evaluation was performed using three assessment tools: the Curriculum TALK, Portage (Language subscale), and the Logopedic Album. A speech therapy intervention program was implemented for the experimental group, followed by a final evaluation conducted using the same assessment tools.
After collecting the results from pre and post-tests, all data were centralized in an SPSS database for processing. Thus, by using the paired samples t-test (hypothesis 1), the independent samples t-test (hypothesis 2), and Pearson’s bivariate correlation (hypothesis 3), it was found that all research hypotheses were confirmed.

The relation between motor development and language acquisition during the first year of live. Prevention and Early Intervention

Carolina BODEA HATEGAN, Laura MĂRGINEAN
Abstract

This article tries to establish the main common lines of motor and language development during the first year of life. The need to see this relation during the first year of life is of extreme importance mainly for preparing and delivering prevention programs as well as early intervention programs in both areas, in motor and in language areas. Concrete correlations between motor and language development are discussed, among these we can mention: the correlation between rhythmic arms movement and babbling development with a peak of manifestation around 28 weeks of life; the correlation between object displacement during play and the first spoken words, a correlation materialized around 12 months; the correlation between recognition gestures and verbal comprehension, a correlation developed during 9- 13 months of life. Signaling signs for directing parents` and therapists` attention are also listed, as well as short descriptions of the main diagnostic contexts in which the relation between motor and language development is to be underlined as a key point for diagnosis and intervention, even in early stages.

Dezvoltarea limbajului expresiv în contextual TSA- Studiu de caz


Dezvoltarea limbajului expresiv în contextual TSA – Studiu de caz

Expressive language development in ASD context- Case Study

Valentina-Georgica POPONETE
Abstract This paper aims to highlight a way of approach for a child with ASD in the field of speech therapy alone, despite the unfavorable forecast (prognosis). The structure of the paper consists of two main parts: a theoretical one regarding the diagnosis and its involvement in the field of language development, and in the second part will be presented a case study carried out over a period of 6 months and with possible future opportunities progress. It is well known that most children with ADS have major language deficiencies coupled with their lack of social skills which worsens (accentuates) the course of further development and, therefore, early intervention can substantially reduce their disabilities. But, in this case study, it is presented a thirteen-year-old boy with ADS and its total absence (lack) of expressive language although the receptive language is at a pretty good level. The main goal of the program was to develop, somehow, (at first hand) first of all, a phonological basis in order to establish a pragmatic (functional) verbal communication. It is known that children with ADS are quite difficult to engage in activities that require focused attention and proper response to multiple requests and what was really remarkable and quite unusual, in the same time, is his full cooperation that led to significant results that will help him in the future.

Abstract

In this paper we will study the level of development of morpho – semantic abilities of students with hearing disability, with cochlear implant and hearing aid. The samples chosen for the research consists of 6 students with hearing disability, 4th grade students from the Special High School for Hearing Impaired Cluj-Napoca, three students with cochlear implanted and three other students with hearing aids. To evaluate the morphological abilities I used Morphological Skills Assessment Test in Romanian Language (Haţegan C. B., 2014), and for the assessment of semantic abilities we used the Peabody Vocabulary Test (Dunn & Dunn, 1981). After the evaluations, the results were processed in order to identify the differences between the two groups of students, the cochlear implant pupils and the hearing aid students, the morphological and semantic abilities.

Fluența verbală (semantică și fonemică)

Verbal fluency – semantic and phonemic

Carolina BODEA-HAȚEGAN
Abstract

This article defines verbal fluency, with both its ways: semantic verbal fluency and phonemic verbal fluency trying to answer to the fallowing question „Is Verbal fluency and indicator for linguistic or a cognitive development?”. In order to answer this question this article mentions lots of researches regarding all the area in which verbal fluency tests are used. Among these areas we can mention: linguistic area, neuropsychological area, psychiatric area. The practical aspect regrading verbal fluency is ensured through the proposed assessment and training tasks both for semantic and phonemic verbal fluency. The way Romanian psychological tests compress verbal fluency is another aspect approached in this article, in order to ensure for the reader, the possibility to have a global image about verbal fluency and its concert materializations.
