- 1From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe goal of this study was to determine whether bilingual children with specific language impairment (SLI) are similar to monolingual age mates with SLI, in each language. Eight French-English bilingual children with SLI...
- 2From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe posterior pharyngeal wall has been assumed to be stationary during speech. The present study examines this assumption in order to assess whether midsagittal widths in the pharyngeal region can be inferred from...
- 3From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe auditory temporal deficit hypothesis predicts that children with specific reading disability (RD) will exhibit a deficit in the perception of auditory temporal cues in nonspeech stimuli. Tasks assessing perception of...
- 4From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThis study compared the speech-in-noise perception abilities of children with and without diagnosed learning disabilities (LDs) and investigated whether naturally produced clear speech yields perception benefits for...
- 5From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedFifteen adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and 15 adults without brain injury listened to narratives, made delayed predictions of recall, and took a delayed recall test. Narrative questions differed by salience...
- 6From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe purpose of this study was to evaluate a new method for estimating the acoustic reflex threshold incorporating wideband (250-8000 Hz) measures of energy reflectance and admittance (M. P. Feeney & D. H. Keefe, 2001)....
- 7From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedFourteen individuals who stutter and 14 individuals who do not stutter were presented with 10 bursts of white noise to assess the magnitude of their eyeblink responses as a measure of temperament. Both the magnitude of...
- 8From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedPrevious research (L. Shriberg, D. Aram, & J. Kwiatkowski, 1997b, 1997c) has suggested that accuracy in producing linguistic stress reliably distinguishes between children with suspected developmental apraxia of speech...
- 9From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedNumerous studies have shown that, as a group, children or adults with developmental dyslexia perceive isolated syllables or words abnormally. Continuous speech containing reduced acoustic information also might prove...
- 10From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThis brief report describes the changes in hearing-aid performance and benefit in 9 elderly hearing-aid wearers over a 3-year period following the hearing-aid fitting. Objective measures of hearing-aid performance...
- 11From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedVocal tremors characterize many pathological voices, but acoustic-perceptual aspects of tremor are poorly understood. To investigate this relationship, 2 tremor models were implemented in a custom voice synthesizer. The...
- 12From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedIntonation has been little studied in children with speech and language impairments, although deficits in related aspects of prosody have been hypothesized to underlie specific language impairment. In this study a new...
- 13From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe present study examined language and fluency characteristics of single-utterance (SU) and multiple-utterance (MU) conversational turns produced by 15 preschoolers who stutter and 15 age- and sex-matched preschoolers...
- 14From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedTen adults who stutter and ten adults who do not stutter completed speech, orofacial nonspeech, and finger isochronous rhythmic timing tasks in a synchronization-continuation paradigm with auditory stimuli and with 450...
- 15From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThirty preschool children with specific language impairment (SLI) and 30 age-matched controls with normal language (NL) participated in a study to compare group performance and to examine the relationship between fast...
- 16From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe amplitude of the respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) was investigated during a reading aloud task to determine whether alterations in respiratory control during speech production affect the amplitude of RSA. Changes...
- 17From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedAnticipating and responding to a partner's emotional reactions are key components in the comprehension of daily social discourse. Kindergarten children with language impairment (LI) and age-matched controls (CA) were...
- 18From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedChildren with specific language impairment (SLI) use past tense -ed in fewer obligatory contexts than younger normally developing children matched for mean length of utterance (MLU). In this study, the use of passive...
- 19From: Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research. (Vol. 46, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThis work investigated the hypothesis that neuromotor differences between individuals who stutter and individuals who do not stutter are not limited to the movements involved in speech production. Kinematic data were...
