Measurable Outcomes of Instructions to Modify Normal Parent-Child Verbal Interactions: Implications for Indirect Stuttering Therapy.
Ratner, Nan Bernstein
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v35 n1 p14-20 Feb 1992
This study of 20 mothers and their fluent children (ages 3-5) found no significant differences between the effects of instructions to slow maternal speech rate and instructions to slow and simplify maternal speech. Children's speech rate and language complexity did not parallel maternal adjustments, which is problematic for parental involvement in stuttering therapy. (Author/JDD)
