Prevalence of language disorders in children aged 2 to 6 years treated at the Durango Regional Child Development Center in 2023
Language development is a significant process in neurodevelopment since it allows us to express ourselves and understand others. Most of the communication disorders occur in the preschool age. Methodology: non-experimental, exploratory, observational research. Contribution: in a sample of 1047 participants, the results show that the highest prevalence is simple language delay with 43.73%, followed by anarthric language delay with 26.14%. This is followed by Autism Spectrum Disorder with 7.51%. Then, to a lesser extent, aphasic language delay at .9%. Finally, audiogenic language delay was found to be .6%. In addition, 18% were found to be within normal parameters, with a p=0.05.
