State of Communication Activity of Elder Preschool Children with Developmental Language Disorders

Abstract

The article contains the findings of the experimental study on communication activity of elder preschool age children with system speech disorders: developmental state of communication skills and means of communication, personal communication traits, which compile personal communication arsenal. In native speech therapy the definition ‘system speech disorders’ refers to such state of speech, which is characterized by the underdevelopment of all its components. In English language recourses similar states are referred as ‘developmental language disorders’ (DLD). Psychological researches report that children with system speech disorders of primary origin suffer from partial cognitive and personal developmental problems. Experimental data analysis demonstrates insufficiency in development of informative, perceptive and interactive communication skills in children with the named speech disorders. Deficiency of the listed skills causes various difficulties in different communication situations involving peers and adults and is being manifested through informative, perceptive and interactive components of communication. It was noted that such level of communication skills development is typical for contextual and practical communication interactions, which indicates delay of this stage of communication development in senior preschool age. Specific features of communication skills of the senior preschool age children with system speech disorders are caused by the shortage of the means of communication, as well as by the individual communicative traits of a child. It was discovered that specific development of the personal communication qualities in preschool children with system speech disorders causes difficulties at the very basic level of communication activity. On the basis of experimental data there has been developed a child’s personal profile. <br/><br/>
