Developmental Apraxia of Speech: III. A Subtype Marked by Inappropriate Stress.

Shriberg, Lawrence D.; And Others

Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, v40 n2 p313-37 Apr 1997

A study used the conversational speech samples from 19 children (ages 4-14) with suspected developmental apraxia of speech (DAS) to investigate the characteristics of the disability. The results of the study, combined with the results of two previous studies, indicate inappropriate stress is a diagnostic marker for DAS. (Author/CR)
