Summary/Abstract: Abstract: The Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Children Ability of Phoneme Analysis. A woman, who drinks alcohol while pregnant, puts her child in risk of numerous birth defects that can negatively affect a child’s cognition, physical growth and behavior over the lifespan. It is called Fetal Alcohol Syndrome – FAS. Among all those dysfunctions, there are hearing problems which occur as disorders of phonematic hearing and phonematic analysis which result in improper executive functioning. The deficits in executive functioning can lead to real-life implications for the people. According to literature, children’s ability to operate with phonemes should develop with age. Approximately sixty per cent of six-year-old children and almost all ten-year-old children successfully perform phoneme analysis. Undoubtedly this ability is strongly connected with reading and writing, which are basic skills for school children. However, studies on FAS children show that only twenty per cent of six year olds and fifty per cent of ten year olds can manage with the task of phoneme operations. It is a natural consequence of the children’s problems with memorizing the sounds and linear order of words. The children’s failure in developing the skill of phoneme analysis leads to dysfunctions in reading and writing.
