Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a rhythmic auditory training program in improving language skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who have a language acquisition disorder. The program focuses on training children to reproduce the syllable rhythms of speech, and the study will evaluate the children's language skills before and after participating in the program.
