• Abstract

  Stuttering is characterized by involuntary speech disruptions. The purpose of the research is to develop a randomized treatment clinical trial in order to verify the efficacy of SpeechEasy. The study will be characterized as Phase III, aiming to monitor possible adverse effects and to perform a between-treatment comparsion: SpeechEasy (GI) versus Traditional behavioral treatment (GII).

• Abstract

  This study aims to compare the speech performance of adults with stuttering before and after fluency enhancing treatment. The speech will be analyzed in different tasks. Spontaneous speech tasks will be monologue and conversation. Non spontaneous tasks will be automatic speech and singing. Reading tasks will be individual and chorus reading. The results will also be compared in terms of s…

• Abstract

  Theoretical Framework: Manipulations of prosodic structure influence how listeners interpret syntactically ambiguous utterances. However, the prosody-syntax interface has received very little attention in languages other than English and so far it has only been studied in individuals with typical language development. A variety of populations with communication disorders share deficits in…

• Abstract

  Background: Bilingual children often present a significant number of stuttering-like disfluencies, caused by word-finding difficulties, which may lead to the wrong diagnosis of stuttering. Differentiating speech difficulties caused by bilingualism from fluency disorders is crucial, once the failure of a proper diagnosis can delay precise intervention and recovery. According to the New Yor…
