Abstract

This investigation was aimed at studying the hypothesis that "Language and speech motor processes may interfere with one another during the act of talking at least in children who are beginning to stutter" (Starkweather, 1990). Fifteen child stutterers and fifteen normal children in the age range of 6-9 years were investigated on three tasks specifically designed to test the following:
i. Language and speech motor process interference.
ii. Language and non-speech motor process interference.
iii. Non-speech motor and cognitive process interference.
