Statistical Information Affects Spoken Word Recognition of Tone Languages in Stutterers: Evidence From an Auditory-Perceptual Gating Study
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Jiaqiang Zhu; Jing Shao; Caicai Zhang; Fei Chen; Seth Wiener – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2023
Purpose: Previous studies have shown that individuals who stutter exhibit abnormal speech perception in addition to disfluent production as compared with their nonstuttering peers. This study investigated whether adult Chinese-speaking stutterers are still able to use knowledge of statistical regularities embedded in their native language to…

Coalson, Geoffrey A.; Byrd, Courtney T. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2015
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore metrical aspects of phonological encoding (i.e., stress and syllable boundary assignment) in adults who do and do not stutter (AWS and AWNS, respectively). Method: Participants monitored nonwords for target sounds during silent phoneme monitoring tasks across two distinct experiments. For…

Neef, Nicole E.; Sommer, Martin; Neef, Andreas; Paulus, Walter; von Gudenberg, Alexander Wolff; Jung, Kristina; Wustenberg, Torsten – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2012
Purpose: In individuals who stutter (IWS), speech fluency can be enhanced by altered auditory feedback, although it has adverse effects in control speakers. This indicates abnormalities in the auditory feedback loop in stuttering. Current motor control theories on stuttering propose an impaired processing of internal forward models that might be…

Using Syllable-Timed Speech to Treat Preschool Children Who Stutter: A Multiple Baseline Experiment
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Trajkovski, Natasha; Andrews, Cheryl; Onslow, Mark; Packman, Ann; O'Brian, Sue; Menzies, Ross – Journal of Fluency Disorders, 2009
This report presents the results of an experimental investigation of the effects of a syllable-timed speech treatment on three stuttering preschool children. Syllable-timed speech involves speaking with minimal differentiation in linguistic stress across syllables. Three children were studied in a multiple baseline across participants design, with…

Selected Temporal, Grammatical, and Phonological Characteristics of Conversational Utterances Produced by Children Who Stutter.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Logan, Kenneth J.; Conture, Edward G. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1997
Clause, syllable, and response latency characteristics of conversational utterances were assessed in 14 boys who stuttered and 14 normally fluent boys. Findings suggest that changes in the number of clausal constituents that must be constructed, stored, or coordinated within an utterance may influence the likelihood of speech errors and, hence,…
