Summary

studying how the cortical auditory evoked potentials differ in children who stutter from who do not stutter and how these potentials change with therapy

Detailed description

Measuring amplitude and latency of P1, N1, P2 N2 between a group with developmental stuttering and a control group with no stuttering at baseline. Recording the potentials through passive listening to a 60dB stimulus and active speaking, describing pictures and rapid naming. Assigning the group with stuttering to remediation exercises using fluency shaping program for 2 to 4 months then remeasuring amplitude and latency of the previously mentioned potentials.

Conditions

• Developmental Stuttering
• Evoked Potentials Auditory

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Fluency shaping exercises	Training for prolonged speech, easy onset, light contact and abdominal breathing moving from the level of single words till using short sentences describing pictures
