Die Aussagekraft einer akustischen Sprachanalyse für die prognostische Einschätzung des kindlichen Stotterns

Abstract

It was apparent that remission rate was much higher in those children who showed linguistic disturbances at the same time with stuttering. Within the stuttering group, subgroups showed a few correlations in several acoustic parameters, but these could not, as yet, be shown to give any prognostic markers in the routine diagnosis of children who stutter. If a child shows any danger-signs of acquiring stuttering on a more permanent basis, a careful diagnosis is necessary in order to find the individually underlying factors before any therapeutical procedure.
