Summary
This study aims to test the effectiveness of virtual reality-supported speech therapy in improving basic language skills in children aged 3 to 6 years diagnosed with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Participants are randomly assigned to either traditional speech therapy or virtual reality-supported therapy, with the same frequency and duration of intervention. Language outcomes are assessed before and after treatment using the Language development level test (TVL), a standardized assessment of Italian for preschoolers. The study adopts a randomized controlled design with individualized, goal-oriented therapy delivered by certified speech-language pathologists.
