Therapeutic trends and models of approaching language and communication disorders of autistic children

Abstract

The therapeutic approach of preventing, intervening and correcting language in the context of a child with disabilities, especially for those at risk of developing autistic spectrum disorders, can be achieved early on from the moment of birth. ASHA (the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association - ASHA) indicates the age range of 24-30 months as favoring language acquisition. In the present study, the authors propose to analyze a number of cases of autistic children with different typologies of oral and written language deficiency. Also, some specialized interventions from the perspective of the multidisciplinary team are recommended.
