Prevention in specific language disorders: Preschool age screening
Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of ENT - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
This study aims at preventing learning disabilities through logopedic screening and specific exercises. Researchers screened 30 children of 5 years old in two different moments: in October 2016 at the beginning of the last year of school and in May 2017 at the end of the same year. One year later, in 2018, these children were re-evaluated. The study revealed some kids at risk so researchers created specific logopedic laboratories for their disorder. Only 17 children out of 30 were at risk. After the evaluation and the treatment period, only 2 kids were actually at risk. The study showed the effectiveness of the logopedic screening.
