Abstract

FERRAZ, Maria da Graça Chamma Ferraz e; FRAGOSO, Tassiana Barbeiro  and  MISQUIATTI, Andréa Regina Nunes. Psychological study of a case of language disorder. Estilos clin. [online]. 2013, vol.18, n.1, pp. 142-152. ISSN 1415-7128.

Our intention was to describe the case of a six-year-old boy, carrier of a language disturbance associated to neurological disorders, in language therapy. Our goal was to build instruments for the diagnosis of similar cases. Relating the patient's psychopathological characteristics with a neurological disease, we understood that both results in manifestations of verbal and physical aggressiveness as well as in the severe disturbance of the language. We hope we have contributed to the understanding of the disturbances of communication associated to psychogenic symptoms and of neurological disorders.

Keywords : language disorder; psychogenic disturbances; symbolic changes; objetal relations.
