Singer, Cara M.; Otieno, Sango; Chang, Soo-Eun; Jones, Robin M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore how well a cumulative risk approach, based on empirically supported predictive factors, predicts whether a young child who stutters is likely to develop persistent developmental stuttering. In a cumulative risk approach, the number of predictive factors indicating a child is at risk to develop…

Tumanova, Victoria; Woods, Carly; Wang, Qiu – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: We examined the effects of physiological arousal on speech motor control and speech motor practice effects in preschool-age children who do (CWS) and do not stutter (CWNS). Method: Participants included 18 CWS (M[subscript age] = 4 years 5 months) and 18 age- and gender-matched CWNS. The participants repeated a phrase "buy bobby a…

Logan, Kenneth J.; Byrd, Courtney T.; Mazzocchi, Elizabeth M.; Gillam, Ronald B. – Journal of Communication Disorders, 2011
Purpose: To compare articulation and speech rates of school-aged children who do and do not stutter across sentence priming, structured conversation, and narration tasks and to determine factors that predict children's speech and articulation rates. Method: 34 children who stutter (CWS) and 34 age- and gender-matched children who do not stutter…

Phonological Words and Stuttering on Function Words.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Au-Yeung, James; Howell, Peter; Pilgrim, Lesley – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1998
Stuttering on function words was examined in 51 children and adults who stutter. Stuttering rate was a function of age (children stuttered more on function words), position (function words in early positions in utterances were more likely to be stuttered), and on whether the function word occurred before or after the single content word.…

Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Melnick, Kenneth S.; Conture, Edward G.; Ohde, Ralph N. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2003
The purpose of this study was to assess the influence of phonological priming on the speech reaction time (SRT) of children who do (CWS) and who do not (CWNS) stutter during a picture-naming task. Participants were eighteen 3-5-year-old CWS (M = 50.67 months, SD= 11.83 months), matched in age and gender with 18 CWNS (M = 49.44 months, SD = 10.22…

Hull, Forrest M. – 1969
Preliminary to a survey of a national sample of 40,000 subjects intended to estimate prevalence of speech and hearing disorders in the United States public school population, a mobile unit collected data on a pilot sample of subjects in grades 1 through 12. Speech testing of 6,290 subjects indicated about 85% had articulation which did not deviate…
