“…Stuttering children in the experimental group this number increases to 60%. These results are similar to another study 28,29 . The statistical analysis in Table 2 showed that the observed difference in the incidence of phonological processes between groups were not statistically significant.…”

“…There is a qualitative difference found between stuttering and non-stuttering children 12 related to the type of linguistic unit where disfluencies occurred: children with stuttering and disfluency on phonemes and syllables were more frequent, not stuttering children, treated the whole word, sintagma and/ or sentence. Another study investigated issues between phonology and fluency and observed that stuttering children with phonological disorder did more prolongations in speech and repetition of words when compared with children who stutter, but that had no phonological disorder 28 .…”

“…Studies that investigated the abilities and disorders of language in children, who stutter, indicated that this group compared with those who do not stutter, had presented lower scores on several indices of receptive and expressive language [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] .…”

Sources of Funding: Fapesp -Processo no. 09/54638-0 Conflict of interest: non-existent three years or more years. Persistent and transient stuttering seem to be the result of a common genetic factor. The persistent stuttering probably has additional factors that may influence recovery. Natural recovery of stuttering appears to be linked to factors such as, good performance on tests of phonology, language, non-verbal skills, have no family history of stuttering or family members who have recovered, and being female 3, 4 .The language develops quickly and an increase in the complexity and extent of emissions of children who exceed their abilities to speech production. The selection of words, phonological coding, syntactic and prosodic planning for effective emission occur when the child is just starting production of speech. There is evidence that delays in language acquisition, especially in phonological development may be associated with risk of persistent stuttering. One study found that about 30% of stutterers have an increased rate of phonological changes compared with non-stutterers, with values ranging between 2% and 6% 5 . ABSTRACTPurpose: to study the phonological development characteristics of stuttering and non-stuttering children, and to investigate possible association between stuttering and phonological processes. Methods: 20 children (10 stuttering), female and male, between 4 to 8 years old, matched by gender and age. Children in the experimental group diagnosed with Stuttering and classified to severity of disease through the Stuttering Severity Instrument-3. Those who had evidence of deafness, neurological diseases and/ or psychiatric disorders were excluded. Children in both groups underwent speech and phonology evaluations by ABFW -Child Language Test. Results: 60% of phonological processes not expected for age were observed in the experimental group. Moreover, in the control group were only 10%. Differences between groups were not statistically significant on the incidence of phonological processes. There is evidence that the group of stuttering children is more likely the presence of at least one phonological process. Conclusion: the methodology applied in the investigation of phonological processes was effective, but due to small sample not been possible to develop the issue and verify if there is a difference in performance as the stuttering children phonological processes when compared to non-stuttering.

“…Slowness during oral DDK tasks in dyslexic children was a result not only of phonologic access and motor planning but also of slower velocity in the production of the articulatory gesture [15] . There is still the need to understand the relationship between DDK and phonological ability, DDK and speech articulatory rates, besides DDK and speech fluency [11] .…”

Aim: To establish reference values concerning the results of oral and vocal fold diadochokinesis (DDK) assessment, as well as to analyze the differences among gender and age. Methods: One hundred and fifty Brazilian-Portuguese-speaking children from 8 to 10 years old were assessed. The DDK was assessed through the repetition of ‘pa’, ‘ta’, ‘ka’, ‘pataka’, ‘a’ and ‘i’. Results: As age increased there was a rise in the average DDK rate, a rise in the coefficient of variation of period for syllable ‘ka’ and a rise in the coefficient of variation of the peak intensity for the syllable ‘ta’. The number of utterances per second of ‘ta’ was higher for girls than for boys. In trisyllables, 8-year-old girls presented a lower number of utterances than the other subgroups. As age increased, there was a rise in the average DDK rate of the vowel ‘i’ for girls; there was also a smaller standard deviation and perturbations of the period for this same vowel. Conclusion: Oral and vocal fold DDK reference values were established and differences as to gender and age were observed.
