| Abstract | ||||
| Children with speech disorders frequently experience peers victimization and rejection which make them susceptible for psychosocial disturbances. Aim of the study: This study aimed to assess the impact of speech disorders on psychosocial status of school-age children. Subjects and method: a case-control study design was used to perform this study. It was conducted on a total of 104 speech disordered children attending the Unit of Phoniatrics at both Assiut and Beni-Suef University Hospitals and a control group composed of 80 normal school-age children. Data were collected by utilizing five tools; Tool (1):- A Structured Interview Questionnaire, Tool (2):- The Children’s Manifest Anxiety Scale, Tool (3): Children Depression Inventory Scale, Tool (4): Self-Esteem Inventory Scale, and Tool (5): Introverted Behavior Scale. Results: The highest percentage of the studied speech disordered children had severe anxiety, moderate depression, moderate self-esteem disturbance and severe introverted behavior. On the other hand, the highest percentage of the control group subjects had moderate anxiety, no depression, mild self-esteem disturbance and mild introverted behavior. Conclusion: speech disorders affect the psychosocial status of school-age children. Recommendations: Workshop training programs for nurses on how to help caregivers to cope appropriately with their children to reduce the emergence of psychosocial problems. | ||||
