Methods of Improving the Cognitive and Verbal Development of Children with Cerebral Palsy
註釋This four-chapter monograph, translated from a 1977 Russian book written originally in Russian for Russians, describes methodology and results of the study of cognitive activity in children with cerebral palsy. An initial chapter reviews research on impairments in cognitive activity and speech defects in such children and on methods of remediation. The second chapter describes techniques developed and used in psychological and speech therapy examinations that assess, such areas as the articulatory system, emphatic speech, cognitive activity, and motor capacity. Chapter III traces psychomotor and verbal development of normal and cerebral palsied children at successive age levels. Lastly, in chapter IV, an approach to psychological and speech remediation is outlined for infants, preschoolers, and primary students (K-3). Suggestions focus on such aspects as development of spatial imagination, visual perception of color, development of temporal imagination, development of oral speech, and overcoming pronunciation defects.
