Abstract

Young children with Down syndrome (DS) often demonstrate impaired oral vocabulary development; however, few intervention studies have focused on this population. One promising method to improve the oral vocabulary of young children with DS may be to train their parents to intervene at home. In this study, we used tele-education methods (e.g., videoconferences, email) to coach parents to implement an adapted version of Down Syndrome LanguagePlus (DSL+). Four children with DS (ages 5–6 years) participated in the multiple probe across behaviors (i.e., stories) single-case research design study. Increasing trends during baseline and data variability precluded confirmation of a functional relationship; however, results indicated that all participants increased their scores on mastery measures of targeted vocabulary. Three of the four parents implemented DSL+ with high fidelity and responded favorably to social validity interviews.
家长实施的唐氏综合症儿童口语词汇干预
患有唐氏综合症(DS)的幼儿经常表现出口语词汇发展受损;然而,很少有干预研究关注这一人群。提高DS幼儿口语词汇量的一个有前途的方法可能是训练他们的父母在家进行干预。在这项研究中,我们使用远程教育方法(如视频会议、电子邮件)来指导家长实现唐氏综合症语言增强版(DSL+)。四名DS儿童(5-6岁)参与了跨行为(即故事)的多探针单案例研究设计研究。基线期间不断增加的趋势和数据的可变性阻碍了功能关系的确认;然而,研究结果表明,所有参与者在目标词汇掌握量表上的得分都有所提高。四位家长中有三位忠实地实施了DSL+,并对社会有效性访谈做出了积极回应。

期刊介绍: Topics in Early Childhood Special Education (TECSE) communicates information about early intervention, which is defined broadly and includes services provided to (a) infants, toddlers, and preschoolers who are at risk for or display developmental delays and disabilities and (b) the families of such youngsters. TECSE includes articles on personnel preparation, policy issues, and operation of intervention programs. The intent is to publish information that will improve the lives of young children and their families. Manuscripts from (a) diverse theoretical perspectives, (b) all disciplines related to early intervention, and (c) all authors with information of value to the early intervention community are welcome. There are two topical issues—which address an identified problem, trend, or subject of concern and importance to early intervention—and two non-topical issues.
