Summary

This study examined how the frequency of speech therapy sessions affects speech and language outcomes in children. Researchers followed 39 children with speech or language disorders who were receiving individual therapy. They measured changes in articulation, vocabulary, and overall language skills to see if more frequent therapy led to greater improvements.
