Goals of Intervention for Each Function Treated in Neuropsychological and Speech Telerehabilitation

Treatment Functions Goals
Neuropsychological Telerehabilitation Attention Increase attention span.
Pay attention to the task avoiding distracting stimuli.
Visual-constructive skills Increase visual and sequential analysis. Correctly identify and use spatial reference points.
Increase the capacity of spatial integration.
Memory Increase of short-term, long term and procedural memory.
Executive functions Increase in task planning, problem solving skills, cognitive flexibility, working memory.
Speech Interventions Expressive skills Promoting an expansion of the morpho-syntactic structure.
Promoting correct planning.
Stimulating the use of logical-causal and temporal links.
Expanding semantic-lexical knowledge.
Pragmatic skills Improve understanding of indirect speech acts, idiomatic and metaphorical expressions.
Reduce tangential derailments in conversational activities by favouring the maintenance of the focus of the speech.
Phonetic skills Consolidate emerging phonemes.
Favour their generalization in spontaneous speech.
Phonological skills Improve phonological programming.
Reduce structure and system processes.
Phonological awareness Promote the acquisition of metaphonological processes of segmentation and syllabic / phonemic fusion.
Improve initial word sound recognition and rhyming recognition.
Grammatical comprehension Promote the understanding of specific morphosyntactic structures.
Lexical-semantic skills Promote an expansion of semantic-lexical knowledge.
