Language and learning in selective mutism: An exploratory study Introduction Selective mutism(SM) is considered a rare condition. It is estimated to be less than 1% of psychiatric clinic populations. Children with SM will speak in some situations (eg at home) but will remain mute in others (eg in school). There are essentially three ways of understanding SM. In the past, SM was considered a result of family psychopathology as well as intrapsychic unresolved conflicts and was treated with psychodynamic and family therapies. Recent interest has been focused on understanding SM as a childhood equivalent of social phobia along the lines of an anxiety disorder. Some authors have also focused on the presence of developmental disorders in children with SM. Many recent studies have concentrated on examining the anxiety component of the etiology of SM. There have been no published reports of systematic review of learning and language abilities in children with SM. Part of this is due to the difficulty and challenges in testing children with SM. We have developed a clinical protocol for assessing the cognitive, academic and language abilities using a combination of non-verbal techniques in mute situations and narrative techniques in non-mute situations.

Selective Mutism Treatment This article submitted by Marg in Peterborough on 2/21/97. Author's Email: I have a question I'd like some feedback on. What is the most effective treatment for a 6yr. old with selective mutism? She is a bright, normally developed girl, but does not speak in the school setting. She has not spoken there for 3 years now with no signs of change, however she does speak in most other settings without any signs of reluctance. I don't believe drugs would be an appropriate approach, but I have heard that art therapy can be effective with some children. Has anyone had any experience in this or any other treatment? The school she is in threatens to fail her if she does not talk this year and I fear this type of action would only be detrimental to her already heightened sense of anxiety. I would like desperately to help this child but I need more information. Help!! Next Article Previous Article Return to Topic Menu Here is a list of responses that have been posted to this article...

Selective Mutism: Although this is not classified as a child anxiety disorder, it is often seen around the time that children enter school for the first time, and can be accompanied by anxiety. The essential feature of selective mutism is the persistent failure to speak in specific social situations (e.g., school, with playmates) where speaking is expected, despite speaking in other situations. In order to be diagnosed with selective mutism, the person’s speech refusal must interfere with educational or occupational achievement or with social communication, and must be going on for at least one month. Selective mutism is not diagnosed if the individual’s failure to speak is due solely to lack of knowledge of the language. Primary Symptoms: Primary symptoms of selective mutism include persistent failure to speak in specific social situations where there is an expectation for speech. The child should be able to speak in other situations. This disorder is usually first seen in childhood, and is treatable with cognitive-behavioral techniques. Treatment: Sponsored by Psychzone Inc.
