Stuttering severity and social anxiety among adults who stutter: A multilevel analysis.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to further investigate the association between social anxiety and stuttering severity among adults who stutter (AWS) at both the between- and within-person levels of analysis.

Method: Sixty-two AWS (women = 27, men = 35; M = 39.5 years, SD = 14.

The experience of stuttering in everyday life among adults who stutter: The impact of trait social anxiety and the social situations.

Effects of task variations on language productivity, syntactic complexity, and stuttering in children who stutter.

Purpose: The aim of this preliminary study was to compare the effects of variations in task demands on: (a) language productivity in sentences categorised into stuttered vs. non-stuttered sentences; (b) syntactic complexity in stuttered vs. non-stuttered sentence categories, and (c) stuttering and typical disfluencies in school-age children who stutter (CWS).

Developmental Differences in the Availability of Cognitive Resources Supporting Rhyming and Dual Tasking.

Purpose We investigated developmental differences in a dual task involving rhyming and tone judgment/decisions and the effects of varying cognitive demands on task performance. Method Participants were 7- to 11-year-olds, 12- to 15-year-olds, and adults between 18 and 40 years ( = 19 per group). The rhyming task consisted of three stimuli categories (nonrhyme, rhyme, and replica), and the tone task stimuli were presented at short (100 ms) versus long (900 ms) stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) from the onset of the rhyme task to vary cognitive demands.
