Summary

In this study, the investigators will research the efficacy of a novel auditory neuro modulating technology that leverages euphonic music tracks with broad-spectrum binaural beats to induce selective EEG spectral power changes.

Detailed description

Stuttering is a speech disorder that affects more than 70 million people worldwide, limiting their ability to communicate and socialize. During recent decades, several studies have demonstrated a link between stuttering and a deficit of β EEG spectral power. In this study, the investigators will research the efficacy of a novel auditory neuro modulating technology that leverages euphonic music tracks with broad-spectrum binaural beats to induce selective EEG spectral power changes. Participants are adults with stuttering and without speech disfluencies from the control group will expose to euphonic binaural stimuli for 5 minutes. The brain electrical activity patterns (EEG) and ECG bio-signals will record prior to, during, and after exposure.
