本研究主要是針對語言發展遲緩兒童，採用獨特語彙資料庫進行語言治療，以建立其特定治療流程，並進行其成效驗證之研究。語言發展對幼兒而言是極為重要的發展指標，其成熟度同時會影響到其他能力的發展，儘早有效的治療語言發展遲緩，不僅能改善語言遲緩程度，更可減低對其認知、行為、學習等方面的影響，促進兒童整體的成熟度與成長度。本研究的獨特語彙資料庫(以下簡稱YMS資料庫)是從臨床治療用語與文獻資料所匯集而成，透過一定之語言發展邏輯可編輯各種的語言治療教材，再以LabView建立一個運用此資料庫的語言治療科技輔具的雛型。在臨床實驗方法中，我們先選擇適當個案參與實驗，再依所設計之語彙選取策略從YMS資料庫選擇治療教材，並規劃治療流程以進行治療，個案經8次的語言治療後， 評估記錄其平均句長(MLU)、不同語彙出現數(NDW)、及語彙清晰度(PIU)，並與接受傳統語言治療之對照組比較，結果驗證採用本研究所發展的輔具確實對實驗組個案在平均語句長度、不同語彙出現數上有明顯的治療成效。所以本研究所發展之語言治療科技輔具，在選取語彙、治療流程及策略上，的確可為未來兒童語言治療輔具發展之基石。

The purpose of this study is to design a specific processing of speech therapy by using the Mandarin database for the children with language delay, and to compare the variability between the study group and control group. The children with language delay need more training and treatment to improve their language skill that is generally as a developmental index. The language development will heavily influence the later children’s cognitive, behavior or academic performance. The Mandarins database (YMS database) adopted and modified from many literatures and clinical materials is developed by our speech-hearing science laboratory. Basing on the YMS database, a technical assistant prototype of speech therapy for the children with language delay was constructed under the LabView environments. The outcome performance of this prototype was also evaluated. In the clinical experiment, we randomly separated the subjects into the study group and the control group, they were applied on the proposed procedure or the traditional procedure individually. We assessed their performance difference by the speech variables including the mean length of utterance (MLU), the number of different words (NDW) and the percentage of intelligible utterances (PIU). These speech variables are recorded corresponding to the study before and after 8 sessions of speech therapy for every subject. By the statistics analysis, the outcomes of the study group have significant improvement in the MLU and NDW. Therefore, the developed YMS database and proposed specific processing are very suitable as a technical assistant prototype of speech therapy for the children with language delay.
