Q

Impaired comprehension and/or use of spoken, written and/or other symbol systems. The disorder may involve (1) the form of language (phonology, morphology, syntax), (2) the content of language (semantics), and/or (3) the function of language in communication (pragmatics) in any combination

Hallmark of DLD

A

Form/Morphosyntactic problems (morphology & syntax) EX: past tense, 3rd person singular, “he go to the store/he goes to the store is an ex of copulas)

Q

What do older children have problems with in terms of Form (morphosyntactic)?

A

Overarching grammar problems including: WH questions, verb arguments, verb alternations –> make it hard when they write (use same pattern over and over; girl opening door, door is opening), complex syntax (using embedded clauses), pronominal reference (using he/she and not knowing which one they’re talking about), errors tend to be omissions as opposed to wrong tense**

Q

Kids with a Phonological (smallest unit of speech) processing problem in terms of Form (phonology) demonstrate problems with what?

A
  1. discriminating and categorizing speech sounds (screen good but can’t produce)
  2. Produce speech sounds and meaningful phonemic contrasts (rhyme)
  3. Remember novel sequences of speech sounds: why we give them nonsense words
  4. Manipulating sounds: “pin” without /p/
    * they have difficulties in available speech sounds and see the same speech error patterns*

Q

Kids w/ a Content (semantics-meaning) problem demonstrate what?

A
  1. Delayed first words
  2. Difficulty learning new words
  3. Naming errors/word finding problems
  4. Multi-meaning words (haven’t attached ending to words)
  5. Semantic properties of words
    * also have problems with jokes and metaphors, newonces of words*
    - ex of changing meaning: “happy mom vs. sad mom”

Q

Kids w/ a USE (Pragmatics) problem demonstrate problems with what?

A
  1. Social Communication
  2. DLD- tend to be immature rather than impaired (Look @ if the convo is way out in left field or if they’re talking like a younger child)

Q

Developmental age: you look for _____

A

IQ

21
Q

What’s the problem if you look at child’s language compared to developmental/mental age?

A

If not a big discrepancy between their language @ mental is where their developmental age is

22
Q

What’s the problem with assessing mental age?

A

If the test is language based & most of them are (ex: directions) technically testing nonverbal

23
Q

Another problem w/ assessing mental age referencing

A

Sometimes they’re culturally biased: we would find LESSS of a discrepancy between their language & mental age & would penalize them for having little language therefore preventing kids from therapy who actually need it

24
Q

What language areas do we see most impaired in school age children?

A

Morphology & syntax (morphosyntactic)
