Phonological awareness of children with developmental dysphasia and children with typical language development

Fonološka svesnost je sposobnost fonološke obrade reči. Deca sa razvojnom disfazijom ispoljavaju smetnje u razvoju ove kompetencije značajne za razvoj drugih jezičkih sposobnosti. Cilj ovog rada je da se ispita fonološka svesnost kod dece tipičnog jezičkog razvoja i dece sa razvojnom disfazijom predškolskog uzrasta. Fonološka svesnost ispitana je kod šezdesetoro dece predškolskog uzrasta delom ELLA testa (Emerging Literacy & Lannguage Assessment). Rezultati su pokazali da postoji statistički značajna razlika na svim ispitanim elementima fonološke svesnosti između dece tipičnog jezičkog razvoja i dece sa razvojnom disfazijom. Najznačajnije razlike su na brisanju fonema (p≤0,000), zameni fonema kao i segmentaciji na nivou celih reči (p≤0,000).Phonological awareness is the ability of phonological processing of words. Children with developmental dysphasia manifest interference in the development of phonological abilities vital for the development of other language skills. The aim of this study is to investigate phonological awareness in children with typical language development and children with developmental dysphasia at preschool age. Phonological awareness is tested in 60 preschool children by a part of the ELLA test (Emerging Literacy & Language Assessment). The results showed a statistically significant difference in the tested elements of phonological awareness among children with typical language development and children with developmental dysphasia. The most significant differences are deletion of phonemes (p≤0.000), replacement of phonemes, as well as segmentation at the level of whole words (p≤0.000)
