| Popis: | The motor hand function of 16 children, aged between 4 and 7 years, with developmental speech and language disorders, was compared with that of 16 control children. The children with developmental speech and language disorders were significantly slower than controls on three out of four motor tasks. They were also more likely than controls to have mixed hand preference although this results was not significant. Children with developmental speech and language disorders should be assessed to ensure that motor deficits are diagnosed and that appropriate support is given. |
