PURPOSE:
to propose clinical risk indicators of the constitution of the speaking subject.
METHODS:
from the risk indicators for child development and from the operating model of language symptoms, four axes were drawn that support the constitution of the speaking subject: the assumption of a speaking subject, recognition of the speaking subject, recognition of the significant and responsiveness of the speaker to the speech of the other. Parental information mentioned during speech therapy interviews of users of three Basic Health Units were grouped by similarity, classified, and analyzed according to each of the four axes of the constitution of the speaking subject.
RESULTS:
the analysis allowed us to establish twelve preliminary clinical indicators for the constitution of the speaker. These indicators point to a possibility that the subject might present speech and language disorders, supporting not only their intervention but also measures to promote the health of the speaker.
CONCLUSION:
the results suggest the importance of the speech therapist in the primary health care of the population and in promotional health measures.
