The specifics of speech development of preschoolers with different forms of cerebral palsy

Abstract

Speech therapy disorders against the background of general motor dysfunction of children with cerebral palsy dramatically reduce their communicative abilities, significantly limiting the possibility of socialization in modern society. In a comprehensive study conducted with the participation of children with cerebral palsy aged six to seven years, the presence of a relationship between the pathological state of the nervous system and the specifics of motor and speech disorders was established. Taking into account the combined symptoms of cerebral palsy in the course of pedagogical work provides early prediction of speech disorders, primarily of a dysarthric nature, and provides an opportunity for a full-fledged choice of the main directions and specific techniques of speech therapy.
