Error monitoring in people who stutter: evidence against auditory feedback defect theories.

摘要: Several theories purport that people who stutter suffer a speech-auditory feedback defect. The disordered creates the illusion some kind of error has intruded into speech flow. Stuttering then results from actions aimed to correct suspected, but nonexistent, error. These auditory defect thus predict deviant detection performance in during production. To test this prediction, subjects stuttered and those did not had detect self-produced (phonemic) errors while speaking with normal masked by white noise. two groups differ significantly accuracy speed, nor false alarm scores. This opposes suggests self-monitoring processes function normally. In condition which be detected other-produced speech, i.e., listening tape recording, fewer errors. Whether might signal general phonological problem is discussed.
