Eficacia de los programas de ejercicios de motricidad oral para el tratamiento logopédico de las dificultades de habla

Efecto de un programa de estimulación de la conciencia fonológica en niños preescolares: sensibilidad a la rima y a la segmentación

“…Comprendía actividades como la adición e inversión de sílabas o fonemas, segmentación, conteo, entre otras. Estas mismas tareas fonológicas hacen parte de otros programas también desarrollados en España, que tienen como objetivo comprobar la influencia de la enseñanza de habilidades fonológicas en el acceso a la lectura y la escritura (Jiménez Calvillo & Rodríguez, 2017;De la Calle, Aguilar & Navarro, 2016;Fresneda, Gutiérrez, Antonio & Mediavilla, 2017;Gutiérrez-Fresneda, 2017;Ortega, Pérez & Ayllón, 2016;Ygual-Fernández & Cervera-Médina, 2016).…”

Nonverbal Oro-Motor Exercises: Do They Really Work for Phonoarticulatory Difficulties?

“…There were differences regarding the severity of the problem: i.e., participants who had a more severe deficit (more than seven non-produced sounds) improved more than those with moderate ones (between two and six sounds), but these results were not due to intervention with the verbal oro-motor exercises as children in both groups improved in the same way. Doubts about efficiency in this kind of intervention are based on the open debate that has lasted for over a decade between defenders of nonverbal oro-motor exercises for phonetic disorders (e.g., [12,15,36,37,54]) and authors who claim that this type of treatment is not efficient in children with typical language development (e.g., [40][41][42][43]47,57]).…”

“…Similarly, Furlong [45] found that the traditional articulation approach in conjunction with minimal pairs was the most common therapy used for speech sound disorders by the Australian SLPs they interviewed. Nevertheless, when American University speech therapists were asked that same question, the results showed that 25% of professors recommended nonverbal oro-motor exercises, and 75% did not, warning that their effectiveness is in question [46,47].…”

“…However, other authors have claimed that nonverbal oro-motor exercises are not useful [8,11]. In the most recent review on the efficiency of nonverbal oro-motor exercise programs and verbal treatments based on phonemes, syllables, and words, Ygual-Fernández [47] concluded there are no arguments to support the use of nonverbal oro-motor exercises.…”
