Habilidades fonológicas em crianças com gagueira

Abstract

Sources of Funding: Fapesp -Processo no. 09/54638-0 Conflict of interest: non-existent three years or more years. Persistent and transient stuttering seem to be the result of a common genetic factor. The persistent stuttering probably has additional factors that may influence recovery. Natural recovery of stuttering appears to be linked to factors such as, good performance on tests of phonology, language, non-verbal skills, have no family history of stuttering or family members who have recovered, and being female 3, 4 .The language develops quickly and an increase in the complexity and extent of emissions of children who exceed their abilities to speech production. The selection of words, phonological coding, syntactic and prosodic planning for effective emission occur when the child is just starting production of speech. There is evidence that delays in language acquisition, especially in phonological development may be associated with risk of persistent stuttering. One study found that about 30% of stutterers have an increased rate of phonological changes compared with non-stutterers, with values ranging between 2% and 6% 5 . ABSTRACTPurpose: to study the phonological development characteristics of stuttering and non-stuttering children, and to investigate possible association between stuttering and phonological processes. Methods: 20 children (10 stuttering), female and male, between 4 to 8 years old, matched by gender and age. Children in the experimental group diagnosed with Stuttering and classified to severity of disease through the Stuttering Severity Instrument-3. Those who had evidence of deafness, neurological diseases and/ or psychiatric disorders were excluded. Children in both groups underwent speech and phonology evaluations by ABFW -Child Language Test. Results: 60% of phonological processes not expected for age were observed in the experimental group. Moreover, in the control group were only 10%. Differences between groups were not statistically significant on the incidence of phonological processes. There is evidence that the group of stuttering children is more likely the presence of at least one phonological process. Conclusion: the methodology applied in the investigation of phonological processes was effective, but due to small sample not been possible to develop the issue and verify if there is a difference in performance as the stuttering children phonological processes when compared to non-stuttering.

Linguistic Aspects of Stuttering

“…A number of studies have suggested the possibility that CWS show poorer articulatory or phonological skills than fluent peers, at least when evaluated at onset (Paden, et al, 1999; Rossi et al, 2014; Smith et al, 2012; Walsh et al, 2021), although not all studies are in agreement (Clark et al, 2013; Unicomb et al, 2020). Some of these are behavioral, and easily observed through testing, whereas others are more subtle and have been detected through sophisticated acoustical analysis or results of electrophysiological studies.…”

Speech rate and fluency in children with phonological disorder

“…It is common to find children with language disorders concurrently with fluency disorders (7) . Studies show that speech rate is an important feature in differential diagnosis of PD subtypes, especially those related to motor difficulties, pointing differences in the values of speech production of children with and without PD (5,8,9) .…”

Abordagem Fonoaudiológica Em Crianças Com Gagueira: Revisão De Literatura

“…Sendo assim, os tratamentos apresentados podem ser recomendado para prevenir e melhorar a gagueira infantil, somente o que utilizou o cão como terapia não apresentou eficácia, dessa forma, os tratamentos possibilitam amenizar algumas condições que podem aparecer com o passar tempo, logo, os métodos usados por meio de ações que viabilizem a ABORDAGEM FONOAUDIOLÓGICA EM CRIANÇAS COM GAGUEIRA: REVISÃO DE LITERATURA ____________________________________________________________________________ participação dos mesmos em atividades é considerado como estratégico para promover a saúde das crianças.No estudode Pereira et al (2022), foram realizadas gravações em áudio de sete sessões fonoaudiológicas utilizando Protocolo de Gravações (PG) com uma criança de 6 anos, sexo feminino, que apresentava manifestações gagas e encontrava-se em atendimento em Unidade Básica de Saúde. O PG apresentou disfluências atípicas do tipo bloqueio, prolongamento e repetição, tanto de sílabas como de palavras, em todas as sessões.JáRossi et al (2014), utilizaram Instrumento de Gravidade da Gagueira (SSI-3), percebeu-se que o grupo de crianças gagas estava mais predisposto à presença de pelo menos um processo fonológico. Assim, metodologia utilizada na investigação dos processos fonológicos foi eficaz.Comparando o estudo realizado por Costa et al (2019), a terapia com cão, demonstrou que o grupo que realizou o tratamento sem a presença do cão alcançou melhores índices de desempenho, evolução e eficácia, dessa forma, não foi observado efeito da intervenção do cão na terapia fonoaudiológica.…”
