“…Pellowski and Conture (2005) found that CWS did not appear to benefit from semantic priming, and Burger and Wijnen (1998) reported that AWS showed weaker phonological priming than AWDNS (but see Burger & Wijnen, 1999, for some contradictory findings). While CWS seem to show generally similar phonological priming patterns to CWDNS (Melnick, Conture & Ohde, 2003), there are some subtle differences (Byrd, Conture, & Ohde, 2007), Likewise, Anderson (2008) found slight differences in identity priming for CWS (speeding response by re-presenting identical stimuli). These results suggest that the phonological representations of target words, or the links between semantic and phonological representations are less well specified in the mental lexicons of children who stutter (Anderson, 2008).…”
