This book was released on 2015 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les compétences langagières et communicationnelles varient d'un individu à l'autre et dépendent de facteurs innés et environnementaux. Néanmoins, certaines caractéristiques sont constantes chez les personnes porteuses de trisomie 21, et les troubles du langage sont au cœur de leurs difficultés. L'objectif de notre étude était de déterminer quels domaines de là pragmatique étaient le plus souvent déficitaires chez les enfants porteurs de trisomie 21 et en parallèle lesquels étaient relativement bien préservés. Pour analyser précisément les compétences pragmatiques, nous avons choisi d'utiliser la BECP (Batterie d'évaluation des compétences pragmatiques), outil diagnostique des troubles pragmatiques chez les enfants entre 5 et 8 ans. L'analyse d'un échantillon de 23 enfants porteurs de trisomie 21 a été effectuée. De plus, compte tenu de l'importance des troubles pragmatiques que nous supposions chez ces enfants, et afin d'obtenir des normes pour un âge inférieur à la moyenne de notre population d'étude, il a été nécessaire de poursuivre l'étalonnage de la batterie sur des enfants témoins de 5 et 6 ans. Nos résultats permettent de conclure que l'acquisition des compétences pragmatiques chez les enfants porteurs de trisomie 21 s'inscrit plutôt dans un retard global d'acquisition par rapport à l'âge réel, plutôt que dans un profil pragmatique typique de la pathologie. Ce travail ouvre des perspectives sur l'évaluation et la prise en charge des troubles pragmatiques chez les enfants porteurs de trisomie 21.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'objectif de notre mémoire est de compléter le protocole d'évaluation du langage oral de l'enfant porteur de trisomie 21 créé par Manon Amevet et Mathilde Chaudet, dans le cadre de leur mémoire d'orthophonie. Nous avons donc élaboré des épreuves évaluant la pragmatique, les fonctions exécutives, la mémoire et l'attention. De nombreuses études ont montré que la pragmatique et les fonctions exécutives sont deux domaines particulièrement altérés chez les enfants porteurs de trisomie 21. En effet, l'ensemble des compétences pragmatiques sont très souvent déficitaires. Ils éprouvent des difficultés concernant la régie de l'échange, la cohésion du discours, l'adaptation au contexte, la théorie de l'esprit, la compréhension des métaphores et des inférences. Bien que de grandes variabilités interindividuelles existent chez ces enfants, leurs capacités attentionnelles, mnésiques et exécutives sont généralement altérées. La mémoire de travail, la planification et la flexibilité mentale sont souvent déficitaires. On note également des difficultés en mémoire à court terme, notamment auditive, ainsi qu'une distractibilité importante. Nous avons donc élaboré des épreuves permettant d'évaluer ces difficultés, tout en prenant en compte les spécificités des enfants porteurs de trisomie 21. A travers nos recherches, nous avons relevé un certain nombre de caractéristiques, inhérentes à cette pathologie : des capacités mnésiques et attentionnelles faibles, des temps de latence importants, une motivation fluctuante avec une dépendance aux feed-back positifs. Nous avons donc imaginé des adaptations pertinentes pour contourner ces difficultés et ainsi évaluer la pragmatique et les fonctions exécutives le plus efficacement possible. Ce protocole se présente sous la forme d'un grand plateau de jeu représentant toutes les pièces d'une maison. Au sein de chaque pièce, l'enfant retrouve le personnage principal et doit l'aider dans plusieurs tâches, constituant nos épreuves. Ce projet, ainsi complété, permet de proposer une évaluation complète du profil langagier et cognitif de l'enfant porteur de trisomie 21.

Download or read book Input and Interaction in Language Acquisition written by Clare Gallaway and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-04-14 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language addressed to children, or 'Baby Talk', became the subject of research interest thirty years ago. Since then, the linguistic environment of infants and toddlers has been widely studied. Input and Interaction in Language Acquisition is an up-to-date statement of the facts and controversies surrounding 'Baby Talk', its nature and likely effects. With contributions from leading linguists and psychologists, it explores language acquisition in different cultures and family contexts, in typical and atypical learners, and in second and foreign language learners. It is designed as a sequel to the now famous Talking to Children, edited by Catherine Snow and Charles Ferguson, and Professor Snow here provides an introduction, comparing issues of importance in the field today with the previous concerns of researchers.

Download or read book Cattle Priests and Progress in Medicine written by Calvin W. Schwabe and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1978-05-26 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cattle, Priests, and Progress in Medicine was first published in 1978. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. The author shows that over the centuries many of the most significant breakthroughs in improving humans health have been closely associated with observations and experiments on animals other than man. Because human medical progress has been so dependent on veterinary studies, he urges that schools of veterinary medicine assume a much greater role in the training of persons for research in human medicine. To illuminate the historical link between animals and man in medical progress, Professor Schwabe recounts highlights in the history of medicine from ancient times onward. He describes the early history of man in terms of animal cultures, focusing on the prehistoric Nile Valley, and points to similarities in medical knowledge between present-day "cattle" societies in Northeastern Africa and the ancient people of the Nile. He discusses the comparative healers of ancient Egypt, the comparative foundations of Greek medicine, the Arabic contribution, Sicily and the beginnings of modern medicine, and subsequent developments through the Renaissance .Bringing the history down to modern times, Professor Schwabe emphasizes the role of veterinary medicine in medical research. He outlines specific reforms in the curricula of schools and colleges of veterinary medicine which would provide for the education of medical investigators.

Download or read book Laboratory Disease written by Christoph Gradmann and published by Johns Hopkins University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, the new field of medical bacteriology identified microorganisms and explained how they spread disease. This book interweaves the history of this discipline and the biography of one of its founders, Nobel Prize–winning German physician Robert Koch (1843–1910). Koch contributed to modern medicine by inventing or improving fundamental techniques such as bacterial staining, solid culture media, mass pure cultures, and the use of animal models. His discoveries, which dominated medical science at the turn of the last century, are epitomized in a set of rules named after him. "Koch's Postulates" are still invoked today in attempts to prove the causal involvement of pathogens in infectious diseases. In a double history, Christoph Gradmann narrates the development of a discipline and the biography of a scientist. Drawing on Koch's extensive laboratory notes, Gradmann details how Koch developed his scientific method and discovered the bacterial causes of anthrax, tuberculosis, and cholera. Koch tried to bring this knowledge to clinical medicine by developing medicines that would specifically target the bacterial pathogens he identified. And Koch’s passion for personal travel developed into a career signature, as he became a pioneer in the study of tropical diseases. A fascinating look into Koch's personality and his experimental work in medical bacteriology, Laboratory Disease reveals both the biographical and the historical roots of our modern understanding of infectious diseases.

Download or read book Health for all Children written by David M B Hall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-09-07 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since publication of the fourth edition of this highly successful book, there have been a number of Government initiatives, reports and policies on how the health of children can best be protected and promoted. This revised fourth edition incorporates recent material on the National Service Framework, 'Every Child Matters', the public health report 'Choosing Health', and the Children Act. It has also been informed by new research on a variety of topics including Sure Start, obesity, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and language acquisition. Health for all Children 4/e (revised) continues the themes of previous editions, in particular highlighting the growing evidence that behavioural problems and educational failure are not inevitable, and can be prevented. Thus the role of screening for developmental problems, while not ignored, is set in the context of what can be done to promote language development, reading, and enthusiasm for learning. Changes made to the fourth edition, and continued in this revised edition, include dealing with the health care needs of children of school age as well as pre-school children. It also outlines the needs of special groups of children, including those who are vulnerable or disabled and those living in unusual circumstances. The legislative framework is outlined and hallmarks of good practice described. Promoting children's health is a key focus, with updated information on nutrition and injury prevention, and emphasis on the importance of parent education and support, language, and literacy skills, with a review of behavioural management programmes for parents. It also describes the duties laid on PCTs with regard to education and social services support. This established and successful book continues to be essential reading for all health professionals who work with children, whether in the community or at the receiving end of referrals. It will also provide vital background knowledge for those charged with the responsibility of planning, commissioning and monitoring. This revised fourth edition provides the most up to date evidence in a rapidly changing field.

Download or read book Experimenting with Humans and Animals written by Anita Guerrini and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2003-07-02 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethical questions about the use of animals and humans in research remain among the most vexing within both the scientific community and society at large. These often rancorous arguments have gone on, however, with little awareness of their historical antecedents. Experimentation on animals and particularly humans is often assumed to be a uniquely modern phenomenon, but the ideas and attitudes that encourage the biological and medical sciences to experiment on living creatures date from the earliest expression of Western thought. Here, Anita Guerrini looks at the history of these practices from vivisection in ancient Alexandria to present-day battles over animal rights and medical research employing human subjects. Guerrini discusses key historical episodes, including the discovery of blood circulation, the development of smallpox and polio vaccines, and recent AIDS research. She also explores the rise of the antivivisection movement in Victorian England, the modern animal rights movement, and current debates over gene therapy.--From publisher description.
