Speech production forms the basis for human verbal communication. Though fluent speech
production is effortless and automatic for most people, it is disrupted in speakers who stutter …

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether brain activity related to the presence of
stuttering can be identified with rapid functional MRI (fMRI) sequences that involved overt …

Previous studies suggest that anatomical anomalies [Foundas, AL, Bollich, AM, Corey, DM,
Hurley, M., & Heilman, KM (2001). Anomalous anatomy of speech-language areas in adults …

Developmental stuttering is a speech disorder that disrupts the ability to produce speech
fluently. While stuttering is typically diagnosed based on one's behavior during speech …

Though stuttering is manifest in its motor characteristics, the cause of stuttering may not
relate purely to impairments in the motor system as stuttering frequency is increased by …

There is a rich literature demonstrating that adults who stutter (AWS) demonstrate atypical
functional brain activity during speech production. These differences can be characterized …

This study reports an activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta‐analysis of imaging studies
of chronic developmental stuttering in adults. Two parallel meta‐analyses were carried …

Background Characterized by the presence of involuntary speech disfluencies,
developmental stuttering is a neurodevelopmental disorder of atypical speech-motor …

Background: One contemporary view of stuttering posits that speech disfluencies arise from
anomalous speech motor control. Purpose: To verify the rest muscle tension and speech …

Previous neuroimaging investigations of overt speech production in adults who stutter
(AWS) found increased motor and decreased auditory activity compared to controls. Activity …
