Objective

2

To explore the application effect of reward language training to the rehabilitation of school-age children with functional communication disorder.

Methods

2

126 school-age children with functional communication disorder admitted to our hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected and divided into control group (n=63) and study group (n=63) according to random number table method. The control group received conventional language training

and the study group received reward language training on this basis. The effects of the two groups were compared before treatment and after treatment

including one-time blowing time

blowing time

longest vocal time

oral motor function

speech articulation

speech behavior ability and articulation disorder.

Results

2

The total effective rate of the study group was 93.65%

which was significantly higher than 80.95% of the control group (

P

＜0.05). After treatment

the time of one-time blowing

blowing and longest vocalization in the two groups was longer than that before treatment

and the study group was significantly longer than the control group (

P

＜0.05). The motor function scores of mandibular

lip and tongue in two groups were higher after treatment than before treatment

and the study group was significantly higher than the control group (

P

＜0.05). After treatment

the speech articulation and language behavior ability scores of the two groups were higher than before treatment

and the voice handicap index (VHI) score was lower than before treatment

and the study group was significantly better than the control group (

P

＜0.05).

Conclusion

2

Reward language training is effective in the rehabilitation of school-age children with functional communication disorder and can improve their oral motor function.
