Zusammenfassung

Material und Methoden

In vorliegender Studie wurden die kognitiven Leistungen von 33 Kindern mit einer spezifischen Sprachentwicklungsstörung und einer hinsichtlich Alter und Geschlechtverteilung entsprechenden Kontrollgruppe (n=33) verglichen. Zum Einsatz kamen der KET-KID (kognitiver Entwicklungstest für das Vorschulalter) und die sprachfreien CPM („coloured progressive matrices“). Ziel der Arbeit war, mögliche Komorbiditäten bei Kindern mit einer Sprachentwicklungsstörung herauszufinden.

Ergebnisse

Bei durchschnittlichen nichtverbalen Intelligenzleistungen schnitten die Kinder mit Sprachentwicklungsstörungen in den Bereichen Artikulation, auditives Gedächtnis, räumliche Vorstellung sowie Visuokonstruktion signifikant schlechter ab als die gesunden Kinder.

Schlussfolgerung

Kinder mit umschriebenen Sprachentwicklungsstörungen haben ein erhöhtes Risiko einer Beeinträchtigung in weiteren kognitiven Bereichen. Eine mögliche hirnreifungsbedingte Verzögerung der Lateralitätsausbildung und damit verbundene graphomotorische Defizite können Auswirkungen auf schulische Leistungen haben und sollten frühzeitig diagnostisch mit überprüft und bei Bedarf in die sprachliche Förderung integriert werden.

Abstract

Methods

Thirty-three children with diagnosed specific developmental disorders of speech and language and 33 healthy controls matched for age and gender were compared based on their cognitive performance. In this study, a German test for cognitive functions in preschoolers (KET-KID) and a test for nonverbal intellectual abilities (CPM) were used. The aim of the study was to determine possible comorbid disabilities in children with specific developmental disorders of speech and language.

Results

Having normal nonverbal intellectual abilities, the children with specific developmental disorders of speech and language showed significant impairments in articulation, auditory memory, spatial perception, and visual construction compared with the controls.

Conclusion

Children with specific developmental disorders of speech and language show an increased risk for impairment in other cognitive domains. Delayed lateralization development related to cerebral maturation, as well as the associated graphomotor deficits, could have consequences for school performance. Therefore, these children should be tested as early as possible and should receive additional support if required.
