Q

what are the 3 definitions of DSM-V language disorder ?

A

1) persistent difficulties in the acquisition and use of language across modalities (i.e., spoken, written, sign language, or other) due to deficits in comprehensoin or production
2) language abilities substantially and quantifiably below those expected for age, resulting in functional limitations in effective communication, social participation, academic achievement, or occupational performance, individually or in any combination
3) onset of symptoms in early developmental period
4) dificulties not attributable to hearing or other sensory impairment, motor dysfunction, or another medical or neurological condition and not better explained by intellectual disability or global devlopmental delay

Q

what are some examples of deficits in comprehension or production in regards to DSM-V language disorder ?

A
  • reduce vocabulary (word knowledge and use)
  • limited sentence structure (ability to put words and word endings together to form sentences based on rules of grammar and morphology)
  • impairments in discourse (ability to use vocabulary and connect sentences to explain or describe topic or series of events or have conversation)

Q

how do “normative perspectives” defines language disorder ?

defines language impairment related ont only to child’s abilities, but also society’s view on these abilities and on the linguistic, social, psychological and educational consequences of these abilities

Q

what term is defined as :

This view focuses on whether there is a clear difference from what’s typical based on standardized measures. If someone’s language abilities are significantly below the average or expected level for their age, then it’s considered a disorder. In short, it’s all about measuring how different someone’s skills are from what’s “normal” or typical.

Q

what term is defined as :

A

This view looks at how a language difficulty affects a person’s life. Here, a disorder is only diagnosed if the language issue causes noticeable problems in everyday life—like trouble communicating with others, issues in school, or difficulty in social settings. It’s about whether the person’s language skills actually get in the way of living a normal life.

An example of a Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) is when a child has trouble forming sentences correctly, like saying “Him go school” instead of “He goes to school.” Children with DLD may struggle with vocabulary, grammar, and organizing thoughts, even though they don’t have hearing loss or other developmental delays

A

we dont know

69
Q

how many major theories of language disorders are there ?

A
  • behaviourist
  • nativist
  • interactionist
  • statistical learning
70
Q

define “behaviourist” theory :

A

children learn lanuage through imitation and reinforcement

71
Q

define “nativist” theory :

A

biological make-up is critical (language acquisition device)
- says that people are born with a built-in ability to learn language. For kids with language disorders, this theory suggests there might be a problem with this natural language ability, meaning they may need extra help to learn language skills

72
Q

define “interactionist” theory :

A

role of social environment x biological features
- (lack of opportunities) x (maybe born with certain features)

73
Q

define “statistical learning” :

A

repeated exposure
- is the ability to learn patterns by observing how often things happen together. For language, this means that people (especially young children) naturally pick up on patterns in sounds, words, and grammar by noticing which ones often appear together. This helps them learn language without being directly taught

74
Q

child language assessment - what is it ?

A

ANY ACTIVITY, wither formal or informal, designed to elect accurate and reliable SAMPLES of commuincation on which INFERENCES relative to developmental skill status can be made

75
Q

explain “an activity” :

A

e.g., observation of play with caregiver, formal test, parent, interview, informal, probes, checklist, language sample

76
Q

explain “samples” :

A

the younger the child, the less reliable the sample; multiple sources and measures improve reliability

77
Q

explain “inferences” :

A

if sample does not reflect age- or stage-appropriate behaviours, infer there may be LD

78
Q

how many major areas of assessment are there ?

A

2

79
Q

what are the 2 major areas of assessment ?

A

receptive and expressive

80
Q

define “receptive” :

A

decontextualize (standardized tests)
- in context, (familiar situation, nonverbal cues)

81
Q

define “expressive” :

A

decontextualized (standardized tests)
- in context, (spontaneous language sample)

82
Q

within receptive and expressive areas of assessment, what are the three main categories of areas of assessment ?

A
  • form/structure
  • content/meaning
  • use/communication
83
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

A

TRUE

84
Q

what characteristics of linguistics are under “form/structure” ?

A
  • syntax
  • morphology
  • phonology
85
Q

what characteristics of linguistics are under “content/meaning” ?

A
  • semantics
86
Q

what characteristics of linguistics are under “use/communication” :

A
  • pragmatics
87
Q

what is “syntax” :

A

the rules for how words are arranged into sentences

88
Q

what is “pragmatics” :

A

is the study of how we use language in different social situations. It looks at how context, tone, and body language help us understand what people really mean

89
Q

what is “semantics” :

A

the meaning of words and sentences

90
Q

what is “morphology” :

A

the study of word parts (like roots, prefixes, and suffixes) and how words are formed

91
Q

what is “phonology” :

A

the study of sounds in language and how they are organized

92
Q

how many main categories of methods of assessment are there ?

A

4

93
Q

what are the 4 main methods of assessment ?

A

1) case history (includes caregiver interview)
2) standardized testing
3) criterion-references testing
4) language sampling

94
Q

what is “case history” method of assessment ?

A
  • questionnaire/interview with parents/caregivers
  • collect information about concerns, development, communication, behaviour, etc.
  • very important for young children
95
Q

what is “standardized (norm-referenced tests) method of assessment ?

A
  • child performs series of tasks
  • standard score and/or percentile rank reflects how child performed compared to children the same age (on whom test was normed)
96
Q

what is “criterion-references testing” method of assessment ?

A

A criterion-referenced test is an objective assessment that compares a test-taker’s performance to a set of fixed standards or objectives. Some criterion-referenced tests are standardized, while others are not.

97
Q

what are examples of “single verb comprehension” ?

A

“kiss the ball”
“grab the toy”
(instructions to observe what the child understands)

98
Q

what is “language sampling” method of assessment ?

A

is a method used to assess a person’s natural language abilities by collecting and analyzing samples of their spoken or written language in real-life situations. It helps identify strengths and areas for improvement in communication skills
(Collecting natural speech to assess language skills)

99
Q

what are the 4 spontaneous language use observing methods of how someone naturally uses language :

A

1) recorded during naturalistic interaction
2) transcribed verbatim
3) analyzed for target linguistic structures or uses
4) compared to age related criterion

100
Q

what is 1) recorded during naturalistic interaction ?

A

Speech is recorded in a real, everyday setting.

101
Q

what is 2) transcribed verbatim ?

A

Speech is written down exactly as spoken

102
Q

what is 3) analyzed for target linguistic structures or uses ?

A

Specific language features are examined.

103
Q

what is 4) compared to age related criterion ?

A

Language skills are compared to typical levels for that age.

104
Q

what are the outcomes of assessment ?

A
  • confirm presence / absence of a language disorder
  • describe language disorder (e.g., normative score, areas of impairment) and its impact on function…. language difficulty vs. disorder
  • goal setting and intervention planning
  • referrals if needed (OT, PT, etc.)
105
Q

TRUE OR FALSE

we want multiple sources of results ?

A

TRUE

106
Q

in simplest way, what is a languge disorder vs language difficulty ?

A
  • Language Disorder: A long-term problem affecting a person’s ability to understand or use language correctly.
  • Language Difficulty: A temporary challenge with language that may improve over time, often due to specific situations or learning environments.
