COMMUNICATION DISORDERS
What is Communication Disorder?
• a speech, language and hearing disorder which refers to problems in communication and in related areas such as oral motor function. • The symptoms vary depending on the particular type of communication disorder, but they generally center around problems communicating.
• Children with communication disorders have deficits in their ability to exchange information with others.
COMMUNICATION
• a multidimensional dynamic process that allows human beings to interact with their environment. Communication also includes cues such as intonation, pace of speech, and stress (emphasis), as well as nonverbal information such as gestures, facial expressions, and eye contact. • The

Other names for receptive language disorder include central auditory processing disorder and comprehension deficit.
They have a problem in language processing which is half of language. Language processing is essentially listening to and interpreting the spoken language.

In most cases, the child with a receptive language problem also has an expressive language disorder, which means they have trouble using spoken language.
Receptive Language Disorder
Prevalence
• It is estimated that between three and five percent of preschool children have a receptive or expressive language disorder and 3% of school-age children but is probably less common than Expressive Language Disorder, or a mixture of both.
Receptive Language Disorder
Symptoms
• There is no standard set of symptoms that
Communication is when you talk to people with words coming out of your mouth to the other person mind. There are three things about communication. One is unsure. So when you are talking to a person they will know what you are doing. For example, Hey do you want alcohol. No, I think um um alcohol is bad for you and you can get a um really bad um headache I think, plus one um I don’t how many people died from alcohol but um I think um that one million people died from alcohol use.
Personal, social and emotional development is linked with communication development, because both are based in the formation of relationship. Children experience difficulties when they are not being able
Communicating with children and young adults who have communication differences should be approached with care and sensitivity. Some children may find it hard to make friends due to being anxious or have a lack of confidence in speaking out to others; they may have a speech disorder, stammer or a condition which creates communication a problem. How we communicate with children or young adults is by giving them time to think of their answer, let them reply in their own time, and not speak for them or answer the question for them.
* problems expressing themselves using spoken language, such as being unable to remember the right word to use, or putting together sentences together incorrectly
The level of a child’s communication skills can have an effect on most areas of development. If a child is struggling with communication and language they
Specific language disorders, or SLI, affect approximately 7-8% of children in kindergarten. SLI are diagnosed in children, mostly, age 3 and older. The relatively late diagnosis is done to distinguish the children that have SLI from those who are simply “late talkers”. Some of the characteristics of SLI involve problem in only one area and some with problems in all areas of language. The children who are diagnosed with SLI may have a delayed vocabulary growth, disinterest in engagement in social interactions relevant to their age, difficulty in comprehension and/or production in any of the following: morphology, semantics, phonology, syntax, and pragmatics. For example, a 4.8 year old child that does not engage in social interactions
For most children there is no clear reason as to why there is a delay in the development of speech, language and communication skills. Therefore, an adult should never assume that the child’s speech, language and communication problems are due to hearing loss. It may be that the child is experiencing communicating difficulties that are unrelated to their hearing problems because the child may not have acquired the vocabulary necessary to express his thoughts and actions.
Speech, language and communication difficulties can have a profound and lasting effect on children’s lives and development. These can affect their ability to communicate and interact with others. The impact of these difficulties will vary depending on the severity of the problems, the support they receive, the demands of the child’s environment
Communication means consuming language in dissimilar methods; to query, simplify, define and discuss, using non-verbal rules of communication: listening, looking, and knowing how to take spoken goes and how to change language to ensemble the circumstances.
Neurological systems were also evaluated to identify any existing health or comorbidities promptly and to utilize interventions such as referral to neurologists, ophthalmologists, or speech pathologists if necessary. Developmental red flags, in this case, would include the inability to understand the use of action words and being unable to follow two-step direction (Bellman et al., 2013). This would be indicative of receptive language delay. Expressive language delays are characterized by a child’s inability to ask for things by name, use no less than 200 words, or repeat phrases in response to questions (Stevenson & Richman, 2016). However, none of these red flags was reported by the child’s
Being able to communicate through speech and language, but more importantly understand and use communication effectively is critical in supporting and developing the behavioural, emotional and social needs of a child or young person.
Communication is very crucial in life, especially in education. Whether it be delivering a message or receiving information, without the ability to communicate learning can be extremely difficult. Students with speech and language disorders may have “trouble producing speech sounds, using spoken language to communicate, or understanding what other people say” (Turkington, p10, 2003) Each of these problems can create major setbacks in the classroom. Articulation, expression and reception are all essential components for communication. If a student has an issue with articulation, they most likely then have difficulty speaking clearly and at a normal rate (Turkington, 2003). When they produce words, they
The clinician will integrate multiple theories that will support a single group of researchers who conducted a case study that proposed the two theories with the purpose of obtaining the most current information regarding language difficulties, social communication difficulties, and the outcomes it provides when working with school-age children. The theories identified during this research were Biological Maturation and Social Interactionism. The clinician will further indicate the relationship between neuronal function in the process of language and the theory selected.
Communication is the activity of conveying information through the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, by speech, visuals, signals, writing, or behaviour. It is the meaningful exchange of information between two or more living creatures1. Effective communication is a reciprocal interactive process in which sender and recipient have responsibilities to ensure that a message has been received and understood.
Communication disorder is impairment in being able to receive, send, process, and understand concepts of verbal or nonverbal communication”. It can affect hearing, language, and speech. (ASHA) A speech disorder is when the articulation or speech is impaired, which includes articulation, fluency, and voice disorders. Language disorder is when comprehension or spoken or written language is not understood. There are three areas that can be affected which include form of language, content of language or function of communication. (ASHA)
