SUMMARY:

Introduction: Scientific production regarding speech language intervention in the area of child language is still scarce. This intervention proves to be effective as long as the speech language therapist acts in accordance with the principles of evidence-based practice (EBP), using valid therapeutic approaches. However, there is a limited scientific evidence base available related to EBP and language intervention in Brazil, especially when it comes to Developmental Language  Disorder (DLD). Objective: To investigate the use of EBP principles by speech language therapists in DLD intervention in Brazil, and also describe the main therapeutic approaches applied. Method: Primary, cross-sectional and descriptive study. Initially, a data collection protocol was developed, consisting of five blocks of questions (sociodemographic, work field, knowledge about DLD, aspects of EBP and intervention principles). This protocol was based on a European questionnaire on intervention in DLD and on the adaptation to speech language therapy practice of a Brazilian questionnaire about EBP. Data collection began in August 2021 and consists of the protocol application in a virtual format by the Google Forms platform. The target audience of the study comprises speech language therapists who work clinically in the area of child language in Brazil. Expected results: It is expected to obtain an overview of the knowledge of EBP principles by Brazilian speech language therapists who work with DLD, as well as describe the main approaches used by these professionals. With such results, it is intended to contribute with proposals aimed at improving the clinical practice of speech language therapy.
