Abstract

The aim of this work was to study the frequency of speech disorders in Israeli Arab children and its association with parental consanguinity. A questionnaire was sent to the parents of 1,495 Arab children attending kindergarten and the first two grades of the seven primary schools in the town of Taibe. Eight-six percent (1,282 parents) responded. The answers to the questionnaire revealed that 25% of the children reportedly had a speech and language disorder. Of the children identified by their parents as having a speech disorder, 44 were selected randomly for examination by a speech specialist. The disorders noted in this subgroup included errors in articulation (48.0%), poor language (18%), poor voice quality (15.9%); stuttering (13.6%), and other problems (4.5%). Rates of affected children of consanguineous and non-consanguineous marriages were 31% and 22.4%, respectively (p < 0.01). We conclude that speech disorders are an important problem among Israeli Arab schoolchildren. More comprehensive programs are needed to facilitate diagnosis and treatment.

以色列阿拉伯儿童的语言障碍。
这项工作的目的是研究以色列阿拉伯儿童语言障碍的频率及其与父母血缘的关系。向泰贝镇幼儿园和七所小学头两个年级的1 495名阿拉伯儿童的父母发了一份调查表。86.6%(1282名)的家长回答了这个问题。调查问卷的答案显示,据报道,25%的孩子有语言障碍。在被父母认为有语言障碍的孩子中,有44个被随机挑选出来由语言专家进行检查。该亚组的障碍包括发音错误(48.0%)、语言不良(18%)、语音质量差(15.9%);口吃(13.6%)和其他问题(4.5%)。近亲婚姻和非近亲婚姻患儿患病率分别为31%和22.4% (p < 0.01)。我们得出结论,言语障碍是以色列阿拉伯学童的一个重要问题。需要更全面的规划来促进诊断和治疗。
