- Effect of the delayed auditory feedback in stuttering Eliane Regina Carrasco Ana Maria Schiefer Marisa Frasson de Azevedo Salud Speech Hearing Feedback Stuttering Equipment and supplies Purpose: To verify the effect of delayed auditory feedback and altered frequency in the stuttering severity, by means of the SpeechEasy® device. Methods: Sixteen 17 to 49 year-old men and women who stuttered were selected. Schooling ranged from High School to Undergraduate degree. Subjects were distributed in 2 groups: G1 with 8 people who stuttered and had speech therapy using the SpeechEasy® device and G2 with 8 people who stuttered and had therapy without the device. All the subjects underwent conventional speech-language-hearing evaluation, specific stuttering evaluation, basic hearing evaluation and speech training with or without the device. Obtained data was submitted to appropriate statistical analysis. Results: There was a significant decrease in the stuttering severity level and in atypical disfluencies rate, in groups G1 and G2, in the final assessment when compared to the initial one. Conclusion: There was an improvement of stuttering level with speech training in both groups, with a tendency of G1, which made use of SpeechEasy® device to present higher reduction in the disfluencies rate and bigger gain in articulatory rate and information production rate. 2015 artículo científico 2317-6431 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=391544062007 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3915 Audiology - Communication Research application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Audiologia Audiology - Communication Research (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.20
