What this Trial Is About
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of BEATLE with clinical samples of patients diagnosed with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD), Dyslexia, and Mixed Specific Developmental Disorder. A randomized controlled trial with a waitlist design will be employed. The objective is to assess potential changes in perceived self-efficacy, self-compassion, executive functioning, and attitudes toward learning as reported by the participants, their guardians (parents), and teachers. Additionally, this study aims to examine the correlation between the usage of the Digital Care Pathway (DCP) and its effectiveness.
