Primary Endpoint
The difference in the progression of language acquisition measured by the difference in the number of images recognised in image recognition tests.

Study Overview

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a rhythmic auditory training program in improving language skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who have a language acquisition disorder. The program focuses on training children to reproduce the syllable rhythms of speech, and the study will evaluate the children's language skills before and after participating in the program.
