SPD 560 Topic 1 DQ 2 What is an acquired language disorder? What are the challenges and implications for working with individuals who have an acquired language disorder? An acquired language disorder occurs in result of an injury or disease. Causes include cerebrovascular accident, seizure disorder, tumor, infection, radiation, and traumatic brain injury (TBI) TBIs in young children are often the result of falls, car accidents, and abuse. Acquired language disorder differs from developmental language disorder in that children do not have the same communication skills that they had before the incident (Burstein, Donaher, Franck, Knightly, Solot, and White, 2007). The challenge to speech-language pathologists and educators is that the injury occurs during language skill development. Children will have to relearn skills and develop new language skills within body that isn’t working like it used to. Characteristics seen in those with acquired language disorder include language comprehension deficits, difficulty learning new linguistic material, problems expressing complex ideas, and poor organization of verbal and written information (Burstein et al., 2007).
