There are many disorders that can affect the ability to communicate. Communication disorders range from deafness, voice problems caused by cleft lip or palates, stuttering, developmental disabilities and learning disorders. Those who have suffered brain injuries, strokes or who have been diagnosed as autistic may have communication disorders.
Communication disorders can be genetic, a result of birth problems or damages and injuries during child or adulthood. It has been verified that almost 5% of children have communication and speech disorders by the time they reach first grade. With speech, language and communication therapy these problems can be rectified.
Communication Disorders
Communication sciences and disorders take into consideration hearing loss. These losses can be from heredity, disease, traumas and medications. Long term exposure to loud noises and aging are also factors. When your inner ear is damaged, sound waves cannot reach the areas needed for hearing. When hearing is impaired, speech is often a problem.
Voice comes from air passing from through the lungs through your voice box. The muscles in your larynx or the vocal cords make sound. Everyone's voice is unique and when the vocal cords are damaged there will be communication problems. Treatment for voice disorders vary on the cause. You can treat voice problems with therapy, medications and relaxation techniques.
Developmental disabilities might be physical, psychological or from conditions such as Down syndrome and Rett syndrome. These syndromes and problems definitely cause of communion disorders and are usually life-long. They do affect everyday living, but can be helped with long term speech and developmental therapies.
Learning disorders affect how one communicates, remembers and responds. These communion disorders can be listening and paying attention speaking, reading and writing, and doing everyday chores.
Children vary in speech and communication skills. There are milestones that denote what is normal. If a child is not reaching a normal milestone, communion specialists will come into play to provide speech therapy. Determination on what language disorders are causing communication problems will determine the treatments and therapies that children undergo.
A very common communication disorder is stuttering. This is a problem that interrupts the natural movement of speech. Problems find the correct words, finding new words, resaying small parts of words or getting nervous when you try to speak. Blinking rapidly jaw and lip trembling can cause stuttering. If you stutter you may have trouble communicating via speech. Stuttering is commonplace in young children and speech therapy and exercises help alleviate these stuttering symptoms. Very few adults actually stutter once they have been diagnosed and treated as children.
Communication Science and Disorders
Receiving a degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders is to actually facilitate life-long education and learning in normal and disordered communication processes. A degree in communication and disorders is the awareness and appreciation of the communication differences between different cultures. Included is research into expanding knowledge bases of environmental and education factors relating to communication disorders.
Having a degree in communication sciences and disorders gives you the opportunity to provide professional services to schools, medical and rehabilitation faculties and to help in strengthening those who have trouble communicating.
