Specific language impairment

disorders of language development consider the extent to which this evidence informs our understanding of how language typically develops. Language is one of the most prominent markers of intellectual impairment, which affects development in many ways, therefore there has been a particular emphasis on the study of linguistic development in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders in recent years, (Bates, 2004). This essay aims so demonstrate how the evidence from disorders of language development

Acquiring effective communication is often hindered by significantly delayed or deficient speech and language development in individuals with Down syndrome. This developmental delay is attributed to mild impairments or significant deficits in some of the physiological and processing systems that are needed for the production of speech and its intelligibility.

Targeting Specific Skills v. Underlying Processes in Preschool Children with SLI When selecting a treatment approach to use with a child in speech-language therapy, one should consider the principle of selecting an approach based on a specific skill or an underlying process which is related to that skill. The principle of treating a specific skill versus an underlying process that is a requisite for that skill should be considered when planning treatment to target emergent literacy skills in children

Speech language pathology is a constantly evolving field. In truth, assessment strategies and therapies are constantly being improved because of the influences of Swiss biologist Jean Piaget (1896-1980) and Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky (1896-1934), who developed theories of cognitive development among children. While these theories are similar in some ways, they also have key differences, such as the fact that Piaget thought children developed through stages, whereas Vygotsky stressed a more
