“…It has been suggested that altered auditory feedback (AAF) in several of its different forms, such as masked auditory feedback, delayed auditory feedback, and frequency-altered feedback (Lincoln, Packman, & Onslow, 2006), may play an important role in ameliorating the symptoms of some of these disorders, for example, in stuttering (Cai et al, 2012;Packman, 2012) and SSD (Cummings & Barlow, 2011). Also, other less clinically used forms of AAF, such as the Lombard effect (Arciuli, Simpson, Vogel, & Ballard, 2013;Garnier, Henrich, & Dubois, 2010;Stathopoulos et al, 2014), sidetone amplification (Bauer, Mittal, Larson, & Hain, 2006;Garber, Siegel, & Pick, 1976;Heinks-Maldonado & Houde, 2005), and the so-called feedback filtering (Burzynski & Starr, 1985;Garber et al, 1976;Garber, Siegel, & Pick, 1980, 1981, which alter the speech input in the amplitude domain or in specific frequency bands, have been shown to affect speech in fluentspeaking adults and those who stutter (Martin, Siegel, Johnson, & Haroldson, 1984) and in children with SSD (Siegel & Kennard, 1984). AAF refers to a range of procedures that, through electronic or digital manipulation, alter the speaker's voice so that it is perceived differently from normal (Fairbanks, 1954;Yates, 1963).…”
