Judgments of Disfluency by Mothers of Stuttering and Normally Fluent Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Zebrowski, Patricia M.; Conture, Edward G. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1989
The study comparing perceptual judgments of speech disfluency by 20 mothers of either stuttering or normally fluent children found no appreciable differences between groups in their judgments. Both groups of mothers most frequently judged sound/syllable repetitions to be stuttered, followed by whole-word repetitions and broken words. (Author/DB)

Perception of Voicing Cues by Children with Early Otitis Media with and without Language Impairment.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Groenen, Paul; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1996
This study examined identification and discrimination of initial bilabial stop consonants differing in voicing by 10 9-year-old children with a history of severe otitis media with effusion (OME). Long-term effects of OME were found for both identification and discrimination performance. In cases of language impairment with early OME, no additional…

Children's Perception of Sibilants: The Relation between Articulation and Perceptual Development.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Mann, Virginia A.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1985
Examined the effects of rounded and unrounded vowels on the perception of the voiceless fricatives "s" and "sh" by adults and by young children who could and could not produce both sounds. Concluded that productive mastery is not critically responsible for perception of the distinction between the two phonemes or the…

Recognition of Gated Words by Children with Specific Language Impairment: An Examination of Lexical Mapping.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Montgomery, James W. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1999
This study compared the lexical mapping (acoustic-phonetic analysis) stage of auditory word recognition in 21 children (mean age 8 years 9 months) with specific language impairments (SLI) with children matched for either chronological age or vocabulary. The SLI children performed comparably to control groups on all dependent measures related to…

Phonetic Coding and Reading in College Students with and without Learning Disabilities.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Apthorp, Helen S. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1995
Forty-four university students, of whom 11 had learning disabilities (LD), were tested on tasks requiring multisyllabic pseudoword repetition, oral reading, memory for digits, and vocabulary. In both LD and non-LD groups, significant correlations were found between pseudoword repetition accuracy and reading, suggesting that poor readers also have…
