Download or read book D sordres d int gration visuelle et auditive des informations sociales chez les personnes autistes written by France Lainé and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'autisme touche différents domaines du développement de l'individu, et essentiellement la communication verbale et non verbale. Parmi les modèles théoriques proposés pour expliquer ces désordres, l'un d'entre eux suggère que les personnes autistes auraient des difficultés à traiter les informations visuelles et auditives de la communication car ces informations iraient trop vite (Gepner et al., 2001, 2005, 2006). Partant de ce constat et suite à de précédentes études (Tardif et al., 2002, 2007 ; Lainé et al., 2008a, 2008b), nous supposons qu'un ralentissement de ces informations visuelles et auditives entraîneraient un meilleur traitement de ces dernières et par conséquent une meilleure compréhension des actes de communication. Pour notre étude, nous avons recruté un groupe d'enfants et adolescents autistes, un groupe d'enfants et adolescents avec retard mental (trisomie 21) et deux groupes d'enfants tout-venant, appariés aux enfants autistes sur la base du sexe, de l'âge mental verbal et de l'âge mental non verbal. Nous leur proposons 5 épreuves sur ordinateur : 1) reconnaissance d'expressions faciales, 2) reconnaissance de mots, 3) imitation de mouvements corporels et faciaux, 4 et 5) réalisations de consignes impliquant une ou deux actions. Toutes ces épreuves sont présentes dans 3 vitesses : la vitesse normale de la vie quotidienne, une vitesse ralentie par deux et une vitesse ralentie par deux et demi. Les résultats révèlent dans l'ensemble une amélioration des performances dans les vitesses ralenties chez les enfants et adolescents autistes, en fonction du degré de sévérité de leurs troubles, et nous encouragent à proposer aux personnes autistes un logiciel de ralentissement des informations visuelles et auditives de la communication pour les aider à communiquer au quotidien.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'autisme, tel qu'il est décrit par la CIM-10, est un trouble touchant précocement les compétences sociales et communicatives. Les chercheurs et les neurophysiologistes évoquent un trouble d'intégration sensorielle dans le syndrome autistique. Or il est reconnu, chez les enfants avec un développement normal, que les interactions sociales et la communication non verbale et verbale se développent à partir d'une intégration des informations en provenance des différentes modalités sensorielles. Deux modalités sont privilégiées : l'audition et la vision. Ce mémoire étudie les liens entre communication et compétences perceptives auditives et visuelle chez 8 enfants âgés de 6 ans 6 mois à 11 ans 9 mois, dont le diagnostic d'autisme a été validé. Les anomalies de perception auditive « visuelle peuvent-elles être un des facteurs du développement des troubles de la communication et du langage? La qualité des perceptions auditives et visuelles est-elle un facteur, voire un indicateur, du développement? L'évaluation de la communication chez l'enfant autiste nécessite l'utilisation de plusieurs outils (grille de Wetherby, N-EEL). L'évaluation des compétences perceptives à fait l'objet d'une batterie d'évaluation expérimentale utilisée selon un protocole. L'intérêt pratique de cette étude réside dans l'élaboration d'un outil d'investigation directe adapté permettant d'évaluer les compétences perceptives des enfants autistes. Cette démarche présente plusieurs intérêts : celui de dresser et de visualiser le profil communicatif et perceptif d'un enfant autiste et de les mettre en lien afin d'améliorer la qualité de l'accompagnement orthophonique précoce.

Download or read book Before Speech written by Margaret Bullowa and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1979-09-27 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before they can make any sounds approaching language, infants can share in communication, though what this means is the subject of much scrutiny. This 1979 volume deliberately draws on people whose different backgrounds have brought them to explore questions that have a bearing on communication in this earliest phase of human infancy. This is, then, as Dr Bullowa says in her introduction, primarily a book about 'how scientists go about finding out how infants and adults communicate with one another'. It is nowhere dogmatic; contributors have all been encouraged to say why they came to do the research reported, how they set about it and what they discovered. Dr Bullowa herself provides a useful introduction which makes its own substantial contribution, while surveying the broad context of the particular research, discussing some of the themes that recur in the book and relating them to the wider literature.

Download or read book Communication in Autism written by Joanne Arciuli and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication in Autism adopts a multidisciplinary approach to explore one of the most common developmental disorders associated with communication impairment. Perhaps the most fascinating thing about communication in autism is that variation is as extreme as it could possibly be. While some individuals with autism have age-appropriate language, a number have exceptional language skills; others have little or no spoken language. In between these extremes are individuals who experience significant linguistic impairments. These impairments can affect peer relations and literacy skills. The chapters in this volume provide comprehensive coverage of both the theoretical underpinnings and the practical aspects of autistic communication. The result is a volume that showcases the wide range of methodologies being used in this field of research. It is invaluable for scientists, service providers, parents, individuals with autism, and students learning about communication and autism (e.g., in psychology, speech pathology, and education).

Download or read book Constraints on Language Acquisition written by Helen Tager-Flusberg and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of research most scholars generally agree that language acquisition is a complex and multifaceted process that involves the interaction of innate biologically-based mechanisms devoted to language, other non-linguistic cognitive and social mechanisms, linguistic input, and information about the social and physical world. Theoretical work in the field of language acquisition now needs to focus in greater depth and detail on some specific aspects of this general model, which is the main goal of this book. The chapters in this volume provide some new insights into one of the most remarkable accomplishments achieved by almost all children. The particular questions that are raised by contributors include: * What kinds of constraints operate on the process of language development? * Which aspects of the acquisition process depend on language-specific mechanisms? * Are there critical brain structures necessary for the acquisition of language? * What role do cognitive and social mechanisms play in language development? * How critical is perceptual input about the physical and social world? * What is the specific role played by linguistic input in the child's construction of a linguistic system? Questions are addressed from the perspective of children who come to the task of acquiring language with many hurdles to overcome, including deafness and blindness, mental retardation, autism, and prenatal or perinatal brain damage involving the left hemisphere. Each section contributes some insight on how an innate language-specific biological substrate interacts with cognitive and social factors, as well as external information, to support the child's construction of a linguistic system. Studies of atypical children offer a singular contribution to this enterprise by allowing us to see the specific influences of each component, and in turn, they shed new light on how all children are able to acquire language so effortlessly and during such a brief period of development.
Download or read book Phonology for Communication Disorders written by Martin J. Ball and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook describes the approaches to phonology that are most relevant to communication disorders. It examines schools of thought in theoretical phonology, and their relevance to description, explanation and remediation in the clinical context. A recurring theme throughout the book is the distinction between phonological theories that attempt elegant, parsimonious descriptions of phonological data, and those that attempt to provide a psycholinguistic model of speech production and perception. This book introduces all the relevant areas of phonology to the students and practitioners of speech-language pathology and is a companion volume to the authors’ Phonetics for Communication Disorders.
Download or read book Oral Speech Mechanism Screening Examination OSMSE written by Kenneth O. St. Louis and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although speech-language pathologists are expected to be able to administer and interpret oral examinations, there are currently no screening tests available that provide careful administration instructions and data for intra-examiner and inter-examiner reliability. The Oral Speech Mechanism Screening Examination (OSMSE) is designed primarily for use by clinical speech-language pathologists. The examination could also serve, however, as a useful tool for oral myofunctional therapists, as well as physical therapists, dentists, and orthodontists interested specifically in speech. It is reliable, relatively easy and quick to administer, and appropriate for children and adults in either diagnostic or therapy settings. The OSMSE is intended to assess those anatomical structures and physiological functions that are most often considered to be potentially related to speech or language disorders. Structural and/or functional judgments included are organized on the OSMSE test form under categories of: lips, tongue, jaw, teeth, hard palate, soft palate, pharynx, breathing, and diadochokinesis. Results of a preliminary study with normal speaking subjects indicated that the OSMSE had satisfactory intra- and inter-examiner reliability after minimal training. The time required to administer the examination typically ranged from 5 to 10 minutes. (Author/GK)
