目的 了解儿童在语言发育过程中特点及语言发育迟缓的情况,为儿童语言发育的正确评估指导提出科学依据。方法 选取来四川省妇幼保健院儿童保健科门诊就诊的1 016名18~36个月儿童作为研究对象,以《婴幼儿语言发育筛查量表》为调查工具进行测定。结果 男童在18~30月龄,语音表达和语音理解能力及整体语言发育水平均显著低于同年龄组女童(P<0.05),男童语言发育迟缓的发生率也显著高于女童,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。男女童语言的快速增长期都出现在24月后,但30~36月时,男女童语言发育比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论 正确认识男女童发育上的差异,在语言发育早期重视男童的语言刺激及评估,对语言发育迟缓积极干预。

Objective To understand the characteristics of children's normal language development process and the situation of language development retardation,and to provide scientific basis for the correct assessment of children's language development. Methods A total of 1 016 children aged 18~36 months from the Department of Child Health Care in Sichuan Provinicial Hospital of Women and Children were enrolled as subjects in the study,and the Language Development Screening Scale for infants and young children was used as the investigation tool. Results Boys aged 18～30 months had significantly lower scores than girls in the same age group (P<0.05),and the incidence of language development retardation of boys was significantly higher than that of girls (P<0.05).The rapid growth of language in boys and girls appeared in their 24 months,but the language development had no significant gender difference between from 30 months to 36 months (P>0.05). Conclusions Differences in the development of boys and girls should be correctly understood,and more attention such as language stimulation and evaluation should be paid in early stage.Also,children with language development retardation should get positive intervention.
