Vocabulary intervention for adolescents with language disorder: a systematic review

Abstract: Tentative evidence is emerging for the effectiveness of a phonological-semantic approach in enhancing the vocabulary skills of adolescents who have language disorder. Future research needs to refine and develop the methodologies used in this diverse group of studies in order to replicate their findings and to build consensus.

“…For children with DLD (many of whom would previously have been diagnosed as having specific language impairment, SLI), good evidence exists of positive effects of individualized one-to-one direct intervention with an SLT for improving expressive language skills and vocabulary (for reviews, see Law et al 2003, Ebbels 2014, Lowe et al 2018 and some studies are beginning to emerge considering the effectiveness of delivery of intervention via telehealth (Wales et al 2017). Fewer studies explore the effectiveness of intervention for children with severe and pervasive difficulties, including receptive language difficulties (for a review, see Boyle et al 2010).…”

Whilst the strongest evidence for the effectiveness of vocabulary intervention came from studies using a phonological-semantic approach, in individual, small group and whole-class settings the results were, on the whole, mixed and should be viewed at this stage as preliminary (Lowe et al 2018).…”
