Behaviour problems in children with language impairment / John VAN DAAL in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 48-11 (November 2007)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 48-11 (November 2007) . - p.1139–1147 Titre : Behaviour problems in children with language impairment Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : John VAN DAAL, Auteur ; Ludo VERHOEVEN, Auteur ; Hans VAN BALKOM, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.1139–1147 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Language-impairment child-language-disorders classification behaviour-problems Child-Behaviour-Checklist child-development Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Language impairment is often associated with behaviour problems. However, detailed relations between different types of language impairment and specific behaviour problems in children have yet to be demonstrated. The present study attempted to do just this with an eye to the implications to identify foci for early intervention. Methods: The language abilities of 71 five-year-old children with language impairment were assessed via the administration of an extensive battery of language tests. The children's behaviour profile was assessed via administration of the Child Behaviour Checklist. Results: Factor analyses confirmed the presence of four language factors: speech, syntax, semantics and phonology. Forty percent of the children displayed serious significant behaviour problems. The most frequently occurring behaviour problems were: withdrawn behaviour, somatic complaints, thought problems and aggressive behaviour. Behaviour problems were associated with three of the four language factors but not strongly associated with speech problems. Conclusions: Differential relations between specific types of language impairment and specific behaviour problems already exist at a young age. Phonological problems showed broad relations to problem behaviour; semantic language problems were especially related to internalizing behaviour problems. This finding suggests the need for specific therapies for both different types of language problems and different types of behaviour problems.

Towards a typology of specific language impairment / Marjolijn VAN WEERDENBURG in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-2 (February 2006)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 47-2 (February 2006) . - p.176–189 Titre : Towards a typology of specific language impairment Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marjolijn VAN WEERDENBURG, Auteur ; Ludo VERHOEVEN, Auteur ; Hans VAN BALKOM, Auteur Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p.176–189 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Specific-language-impairment lexical-semantic-abilities auditory-conceptualization verbal-sequential-memory speech-production classification Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: The population of children with specific language impairments (SLI) is heterogeneous. The present study was conducted to examine this heterogeneity more closely, by identifying and describing subgroups within the population of children with SLI in the Netherlands. Method: A broad battery of language tests and language-related cognitive tests were administered to 147 six-year-old and 136 eight-year-old children with SLI. Results: Factor analyses revealed 4 factors indicating 4 distinctive linguistic domains for both age samples: 1) lexical-semantic abilities, 2) auditory conceptualization, 3) verbal sequential memory and 4) speech production. These empirical findings were further validated by the positive correlations found between the language factors and the judgments of teachers and speech therapists. Finally, a cluster analysis revealed 4 distinct clusters of SLI children for each sample with specific language profiles based on the 4 factors. Results were nearly the same for both age samples. Conclusions: The language problems that emerged from the two samples of children with SLI could be described as falling into four types. Based on these language types, four subgroups of children with SLI could be distinguished, each with a specific profile. Some subgroups had severe problems on one specific type of language problem; others had severe problems in more than one type of language problem when compared to the other subgroups of the same age sample. The different profiles may indicate that a more dynamic approach is needed in intervention, considering the presence of both compensating and restricting factors within each child with SLI.
