Abstract Objective To investigate the features of intellectual development and family influencing factors in children with language delay, provide clues to intervention training. Methods The developmental levels of gross and fine motor, adaptive behavior, language, and social abilities were evaluated in 432 children with language delay by Geselldevelopmental schedule. They were expressed by the developmental quotients （DQ）of motor ability, object ability, language ability, and person ability, respectively. The correlation between language, adaptive behavior and social abilities were analyzed, and family influencing factors were analyzed. Results All the 432 children had normal mean gross motor ability. Fine motor, object, language, and person abilities were all lower than those of normal children. The language ability was the lowest, which was significantly positively correlated with the object and person abilities （r=0. 549, P<0.001; r=0.724, P<0.001）. The family influencing factors included way of rearing, contact time with electronic products, parental relationship, and cultural level of mother. Conclusion Children with language delay may have abnormal object and person abilities. Targeted guidance and intervention should be implemented according to the assessment results of the overall development level, and the influence of adverse factors on children’s language ability should be reduced or avoided in the family environment.
