The Effects Of Manifest Anxiety On Stuttering Adaptation, Joseph Agnello

Masters Theses

I. Introduction

When stuttering behavior is viewed as a problem in learning, the phenomenon of adaptation frequently receives attention. A standard adaptation experiment consists of having the person who stutters re-read the same passage, or a passage of equal difficulty, a specified number of times. Under these conditions a relative reduction¹ in stuttering frequency usually occurs. Experimentalists and clinicians alike have long been puzzled as to why this decrement takes place, since stuttering is generally considered by many writers^2,3 as a self-reinforcing disorder; that is, stuttering produces more stuttering.

The present experiment was designed to investigate the effects, …

The Problem

Justification of this research. This experiment was designed to test the prevalent opinion that poor speaking reduces comprehension. Typical of such opinions is the conclusion of Knower, Phillips, and Koeppel¹, who state:

"The comparative effectiveness of speaking and oral reading as methods of presenting material depends upon the quality of performance. Poor speaking seems to be the least effective method of presenting informative materials. There is a direct relationship between the quality of speaking performance and the amount of material recalled. Poor speakers produced least recall."

Of the many factors which contribute to effective …

A Comparative Study Of The Jaw Movements Of Children With Normal And Abnormal Articulation, Jean Fraser Ward

Masters Theses

Review of the Literature

Introduction

It is surprising that there exist relatively few studies of the movement of the mandible or lower jaw with regard to misarticulation while the activity of the tongue, on the contrary, has received much attention. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the extent of mandibular movement in the production of nonsense syllables and sentences as spoken by children with dyslalic and normal speech.

Keys To Professional Information For Teachers, Roy C. Bryan

Faculty Contributions (1950-1981)

One is well aware that graduate students, in the earlier days of their advanced study, tend to be wasteful of their time and effort. Much of this waste is caused by the fact that they have little knowledge of the library keys and indexes that will aid them in locating references quickly and assembling bibliographies that are pertinent to their papers and projects.

This publication is designed to provide that much n needed assistance. The materials contained herein, admittedly, do not include every key and index that is now available. However, the School of Graduate Studies is convinced that those …

An Investigation Of Certain Factors Influencing The Testing Of Auditory Phonetic Discrimination, Warren Scott Curtis

Masters Theses

The Background of the Problem

Review of the Literature

The importance of auditory phonetic discrimination in speech therapy. One of the basic criteria for good articulation is that the individual sounds or phonetic units which make up a word must be produced correctly and arranged properly in sequence. According to Van Riper (32:127), when a speaker adds, omits or distorts a particular phoneme to the extent that it alters word meaning, calls attention to itself, and/or produces unpleasant emotional reactions in the speaker or audience, he is adjusted to have an articulation defect.
