Summary/Abstract: Communication is produced through language, language being also an instrument of thought. The correction of speech and language disorders, in general, stimulates the psychic development of the individual, his integration in activity and life, leads to the affirmation of the personality on a social and cultural level. Speech therapists are increasingly challenged in offering and performing high-quality speech therapy for the correction of people with language disorders. The computer can be an excellent game partner and a good "educator" and its intervention, depending on the variety of programs used and the involvement of psychopedagogical factors, will be reflected in the shaping of the child's personality. Our results illustrated significantly higher performance in language development at all levels for the group that received the Logopedix software-based intervention compared to the control group. These results can be used in the development of new psycho pedagogical intervention programs involving multiple specialists.
