The diploma thesis deals with the issue of phonological abilities of children with dyslalia in preschool age. The main goal of the thesis lies therefore in the analysis of the phonological abilities of the stated target group. Based on the main goal, partial objectives and research questions were defined. A method of qualitative research strategy - a case study was used to fulfil the objectives of the thesis. To gather the data, test methods and analysis of the available documents were used. To create a comprehensive picture of the monitored children, the methods mentioned above were supplemented with an interview with a clinical speech therapist. The thesis is divided into two parts, the theoretical part and the empirical part. The theoretical part consists of three chapters. The first chapter deals with the definition of key terms such as communication, communication skills, as well as the development of speech, language and communication. In this chapter, attention is paid also to a preschool child. The second chapter describes the issue of phonological abilities, which are presented in the context of the phonetic- phonological language level. The last chapter looks into the issue of dyslalia. The empirical part is then devoted to the description of the whole process of the research survey....

<div> <div> <div> <p>Personality traits are important factors of psychotherapy for many reasons, as they relate to a variety of clinical outcomes, can complicate treatment, and can also be targets of treatment interventions. Because of its clinical prevalence and impact, it is imperative that therapists are able to effectively assess and treat personality pathology. Previous research has indicated that both client and therapist ratings of personality can provide meaningful information, and this varies across different sessions, but no study to date has examined both client and therapist ratings across the entire therapeutic intervention. There is also limited information on the agreement of client and therapist ratings of personality, as the majority of studies only examine the outset, the end, or a random time point of treatment. Examining only one point in time – or just the beginning and end – misses valuable information regarding possible changes in personality occurring throughout treatment. Using a naturalistic dataset of 128 client-therapist dyads (3,440 observations), the present study examined the longitudinal trajectory of client and therapist ratings of personality change throughout intervention while also accounting for state-level distress. Additionally, the agreement between clients and therapists were examined throughout treatment for any potential patterns of change using rank-order, mean-level, and absolute agreement. Significant patterns of trait change and change in absolute agreement across treatment were assessed using multilevel modeling. Last but not least, the agreement among clients and therapists were examined as potential predictors of therapeutic outcomes, such as engagement and improvement. The results provided evidence for significant decreases in neuroticism that were reported by the client but not therapist that suggest clients might be report decreases in state-level distress rather than true trait change. There were meaningful fluctuations in agreement across treatment, particularly for openness to experience and neuroticism, but the overall agreement – or lack thereof – did not significantly predict client engagement or improvement. Results highlight several clinical implications that are discussed. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Bakgrund: Fysisk aktivitet har visat sig ha en positiv effekt för både den psykiska och fysiska hälsan. Den kan minska psykiska problem som oro, stress och depression, samt fysiska åkommor som blodtryck, stroke och diabetes. Fysisk aktivitet är numera en allt mer vedertagen metod för att behandla fysiska och psykiska besvär. Individer med ADHD har vanligen problem med hyperaktivitet, impulsivitet, uppmärksamhet, sociala beteenden och kognitiva förmågor.Syfte: Att undersöka den vetenskapliga litteraturen för att få belägg för vilka effekter fysisk aktivitet kan ha för symptom hos individer med ADHD.Metod: I denna systematiska litteraturstudie återfanns via sökningar i databaserna PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Science Direct och PsycINFO artiklar som sedan granskades utifrån en bedömningsmall.Resultat: Fysisk aktivitet upplevdes ha en positiv effekt för hyperaktivitet och uppmärksamhetsproblem samt visade sig minska risken för sociala beteendeproblem hos individer diagnostiserade med ADHD. Vidare påvisades att oavsett regelbundenhet eller omfattning av fysisk aktivitet en positiv effekt för kognitiva förmågor hos individer diagnostiserade med ADHD.Konklusion: Den vetenskapliga litteraturen visar att fysisk aktivitet troligen har en positiv effekt för ett flertal symptom hos individer med ADHD. Dock krävs ytterligare forskning i ämnet. / Background: Physical activity has been shown to have a positive impact for both mental and physical health. It may reduce psychological problems such as anxiety, stress and depression, and physical issues like high blood pressure, stroke and diabetes. Physical activity is now an increasingly accepted method to treat physical and mental disorders. Individuals with ADHD usually have problems with hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention, social behavior and cognitive abilities.Aim: To investigate the scientific literature for evidence about the effect of physical activity on symptoms in individuals with ADHD.Method: In this systematic literature review articles where found through the databases PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Science Direct and PsycINFO witch was later surveyed based on an assessment template.Results: Physical activity was perceived to have a positive effect for hyperactivity and attention problems and appeared to reduce the risk of social behavior problems in individuals diagnosed with ADHD. Furthermore, it was shown that regardless of frequency or extent of physical activity a positive effect was shown on cognitive abilities in individuals diagnosed with ADHD.Conclusion: The scientific literature shows that physical activity is likely to have a positive effect for a variety of symptoms in individuals with ADHD. However, further research on the subject is required.

<p dir="ltr">Individuals with typical audiometric sensitivity exhibit varying speech perception abilities in noisy environments, which may decline with age. Temporal processing plays a pivotal role in speech perception, especially in challenging listening conditions. Auditory decline due to aging involves both peripheral pathology and central auditory system changes, impacting temporal processing. To delineate the contributions of these changes, measurements of within- and across-channel temporal processing were conducted in a wide age range of normal-hearing individuals. Robust perception of within-channel temporal cues requires precise coding at both peripheral and central auditory pathway levels, while cross-channel processing relies on central mechanisms. Comprehensive data collection involved behavioral and electrophysiological measures, revealing age-related increases in behavioral thresholds, less robust cortical responses to gaps and temporal-coherence changes, and declining SPIN performance. Cross-channel measures proved to be more predictive of speech perception outcomes, emphasizing the significance of central auditory changes in age-related perceptual deficits.</p><p dir="ltr">A mini-EEG cap to record cortical EEG auditory responses to gaps in chinchillas using a new sedation protocol was validated. This advancement enhances translational potential and paves the way for exploring cortical auditory processing using complex stimuli in animal models. By facilitating simultaneous exploration of both subcortical and cortical consequences of auditory system pathologies, this development contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of auditory processes across species.</p>

[pt] Este estudo tem como foco habilidades linguísticas de crianças pré-escolares no espectro autista. Os objetivos foram identificar e avaliar o tratamento dado à linguagem nas abordagens terapêuticas para o Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) mais utilizadas na prática fonoaudiológica, em amostra coletada no Rio de Janeiro; e propor um instrumento de avaliação de habilidades linguísticas de préescolares com TEA, visando a rastrear dificuldades gramaticais no desempenho de tarefas de compreensão. O instrumento desenvolvido visa a avaliar aspectos sintáticos (sentenças simples variando quanto a transitividade e tempo/aspecto verbal; sentenças interrogativas e relativas, sentenças coordenadas), morfossintáticos (gênero e número gramatical) e pertinentes à interface sintaxesemântica (pronomes reflexivos e referenciais). Sentenças com reversibilidade temática são incluídas visando a dar seguimento à avaliação das crianças cujo desempenho não revelou dificuldades com sentenças irreversíveis. Metodologia psicolinguística que explora o direcionamento do olhar da criança foi adaptada para adequar as tarefas propostas ao ambiente terapêutico fonoaudiológico. Um estudopiloto conduzido com 12 crianças com TEA é relatado. 3 grupos foram caracterizados com base na produção linguística oral demonstrada em sessões clínicas - da mais desenvolvida (grupo 1) à menos desenvolvida (grupo 3). Os resultados são compatíveis com a literatura que distingue crianças no espectro autista como ALN (Language Normal) e ALI (Language Impaired). Dificuldades em todos os aspectos investigados foram identificadas nas crianças com baixa produção. Contudo, as crianças de todos os grupos revelam dificuldades na interface sintaxe-semântica e no número gramatical. Crianças do grupo intermediário apresentam maior dificuldade em sentenças complexas e sentenças reversíveis. / [en] This study focuses on the linguistic abilities of preschool children in the autistic spectrum. The objectives were to identify and evaluate the approaches to language in the most frequently used therapeutic approaches for ASD in the speech therapy practice, in a sample collected in Rio de Janeiro, and to propose an instrument to assess ADS children s language skills, by tracking specific difficulties in comprehension tasks. The instrument aims to evaluate syntactic structures (simple sentences varying in transitivity and tense/aspect of the verb; interrogative sentences; coordinate sentences; completive clauses; and relative clauses), morphosyntactic distinctions (gender and grammatical number) and aspects pertaining to the syntax-semantic interface (reflexive and referential pronouns), by avoiding the cost of thematic reversibility. In addition, reversible sentences were included to continue the evaluation of children whose performance on irreversible sentences did not present difficulties. A pilot study was developed with 12 autistic children. 3 groups were characterized based on their oral linguistic performance in speech therapy sections, from the less developed (group 1) to the most developed ones (group 3). The results are in line with the literature that distinguishes ALN (language normal) and ALI (language impaired) ASD children. Difficulties in all aspects investigated were identified in children with low production. However, children from all groups revealed difficulties in the syntax-semantic interface and in grammatical number. Children in the intermediate group had greater difficulty in complex sentences and reversible sentences.

The aim of the study was to create and justify recommendations for differentiated development of speed abilities in young soccer players during in-depth specialization stage. We studied methods of estimation of speed abilities in soccer players, evaluated and analyzed speed abilities in young soccer players and elaborated recommendations on their differentiated development. Novelty of the idea is the separation of speed abilities into 9 manifestations for further development: speed of simple visual-motor reaction, speed of complex visual-motor reaction, speed of single movement, frequency of movement, speed of entire movement action, single explosive effort, start acceleration, distant speed (speed endurance), braking speed. Practical outcome is elaboration of set of exercise for differentiated development of speed abilities in young soccer players during in-depth specialization stage. Separate exercise complex was invented for each type of speed ability. These exercises may be used during the whole training process of soccer players. / Целью исследования является обоснование и разработка рекомендаций по дифференцированному развитию скоростных качеств у юных футболистов на этапе углубленной специализации. В результате исследования были изучены методики определения скоростных качеств у футболистов, проведена оценка скоростных качеств, анализ результатов и разработка рекомендаций по их дифференцированному развитию. Новизна исследования заключается в разделении скоростных качеств на девять проявлений для дифференцированного развития: скорость простой зрительно-моторной реакции, скорость сложной зрительно-моторной реакции, скорость одиночного движения, частота (темп) движений, скорость целостного двигательного действия, однократное проявление концентрированного взрывного усилия, стартовый разгон, дистанционная скорость (скоростная выносливость), скорость торможения (скорость остановки движения). Практическая значимость работы заключается в разработке комплекса упражнений с использованием различных средств и методов для дифференцированного развития скоростных качеств у футболистов на этапе углубленной специализации. Для каждого проявления скоростных качеств разработан свой комплекс упражнений. Данные упражнения можно использовать как в специальном микроцикле, направленном на развитие скоростных качеств, так и в повседневной тренировочной деятельности.
