the Specific Language Impairment (SLI) is a developmental language disorder characterized by a language deficit on different linguistic levels (phonetic, phonological, lexical, semantic, morphological, syntactic and narrative) for which there are different approaches to rehabilitation, with differences in treatment according to the levels involved. Objective: The aim of this research is a systematic review of the indexed literature for detecting the scientific evidence produced in relation to the treatment of SLI in developmental age. Materials and methods: a literature search was conducted on PubMed and Cochrane Library. Selected studies were analyzed with respect to: type of proposed intervention, treatment and patient characteristics, external validity, study design, internal validity, results and effectiveness of the intervention, level of evidence of the intervention. Results: 22 studies published from 1998 to 2008 were selected. A vast heterogeneity was found in the proposed treatments, that did not allow to synthesize the results but rather to assess separately the different levels of evidence for each treatment, in relation to different linguistic levels addressed by each study.

Abstract
the Specific Language Impairment (SLI) is a developmental language disorder characterized by a language deficit on different linguistic levels (phonetic, phonological, lexical, semantic, morphological, syntactic and narrative) for which there are different approaches to rehabilitation, with differences in treatment according to the levels involved. Objective: The aim of this research is a systematic review of the indexed literature for detecting the scientific evidence produced in relation to the treatment of SLI in developmental age. Materials and methods: a literature search was conducted on PubMed and Cochrane Library. Selected studies were analyzed with respect to: type of proposed intervention, treatment and patient characteristics, external validity, study design, internal validity, results and effectiveness of the intervention, level of evidence of the intervention. Results: 22 studies published from 1998 to 2008 were selected. A vast heterogeneity was found in the proposed treatments, that did not allow to synthesize the results but rather to assess separately the different levels of evidence for each treatment, in relation to different linguistic levels addressed by each study.
