Speech-Associated Attitudes of Stuttering and Nonstuttering Children.

De Nil, Luc F.; Brutten, Gene J.

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v34 n1 p60-66 Feb 1991

Speech-associated attitudes of 70 stuttering and 271 nonstuttering Belgian elementary and middle school children were assessed. Stuttering students evidenced significantly more negative attitudes toward speech than did their nonstuttering peers. These attitudes became more negative with age among stuttering children, whereas attitudes of nonstuttering children improved after age nine. (Author/PB)
