“…This trend could be explained by the relationship between speech disfluency and age of the children (5 to 6 years old). Indeed, the children in the study have high age considering language development, confirming that the occurrence of hesitation tends to broadly stable throughout the child development (1,3,5) . The tendency of nonoccurrence of hesitations in the beginning of utterances in children may also be due to the familiarity of the children with the issues brought up at the time of the interviews (which were previously worked in the educational workshops organized one week before the interviews) because fluency may depend also on the child's ability to understand the morphosyntactic structure of the utterances (5) .…”

“…In a first set of studies, the focus lies on how the aspects of fluency and/or disfluency of speech indicate what is considered as normal or pathological in language acquisition. Therefore, in this research, both the disfluencies considered common to all speakers and the ones seen as more typical of individuals diagnosed with stuttering were analyzed (1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) . In a second set of studies, the analysis of hesitations is in the context of relationships between subjectivity and stuttering.…”

PURPOSE: (1) To verify the existence (or not) of hesitation marks in the beginning of utterances in children's discourse; and (2) to determine to what extent the presence/absence of these marks could be explained by retrievable facts in the production conditions of their discourses. METHODS: Interview situations with four children aged 5-6 years attending Kindergarten level II in a public preschool at the time of the data collection were analyzed. The interviews were recorded on audio and video, inside a soundproof booth, with high fidelity equipment. Afterwards, the recordings were transcribed by six transcribers that were specially trained for this task. Transcription rules that prioritized the analyses of hesitations were used. For the analysis of retrievable facts in the production conditions of children's discourse, the dialogic pair question-answer was adopted. RESULTS: A correlation between presence/absence of hesitation in the beginning of utterances in children and type of question (open/closed) made by the collocutor was observed. When the question was closed ended, the utterances were preferably initiated without hesitation marks, and when the question was open ended, the utterances were preferably initiated with hesitation marks. CONCLUSION: The presence/absence of hesitation marks in the beginning of utterances in children was found to be dependent on the production conditions of their discourses.

“…However, the data on this similar distribution of disfluencies in the group of people who stutter, differ from the findings on the disfluency in fluent people, because adults who are fluent speakers of Brazilian Portuguese have shown that there is a greater quantity of other disfluencies, in relation to the stuttering-like disfluencies 20 . The data therefore suggest that the fluency profile of stutterers distinguishes from the profile of fluent people, on the distribution among other disfluencies and the stuttering-like disfluencies.…”

“…The class that showed lower risk for the disorder was the class of female relatives of probands, descendant from female probands (0.032). The male/female ratio showed the highest prevalence of stuttering for males ( Table 2) that adults who stutter demonstrated increased value of frequency for total disfluencies, in relation to fluent (confidence interval in the studied age, ranged was from 8.32% to 9%) 20 . However, this number was relatively close (10.77%) in the results of this investigation.…”

Resumo: OBJETIVO: caracterizar e comparar a frequência das disfluências da fala de adultos com gagueira desenvolvimental persistente familial do sexo masculino e feminino, a severidade do distúrbio e determinar a prevalência familial e a razão entre gêneros da gagueira nos familiares dos probandos. MÉTODOS: participaram 30 adultos com gagueira (18 a 53 anos), divididos em dois grupos, sendo 20 do sexo masculino e 10 do sexo feminino. Os procedimentos realizados foram: história clínica e familial, avaliação da fluência e Instrumento de Severidade da Gagueira. RESULTADOS: as porcentagens de disfluências típicas da gagueira (p=0,352), de outras disfluências (p=0,947) e do total das disfluências (p=0,522) foram semelhantes entre os grupos masculino e feminino. A média de disfluências típicas da gagueira foi 5,23% e de outras disfluências 5,50%. O subtipo leve foi manifestado pela maioria dos participantes (83,3%). Os familiares do gênero masculino apresentaram maior risco de apresentar gagueira (p<0,001). Do total de 1002 familiares, 85 apresentaram gagueira. No total de familiares afetados (n=85), 53 eram do sexo masculino e 32 do feminino. CONCLUSÃO: não houve diferenças entre os grupos masculino e feminino nas medidas analisadas. Quanto à frequência das disfluências, aproximadamente metade do total das disfluências foi caracterizada como disfluências típicas da gagueira. O subtipo de gagueira desenvolvimental persistente familial foi caracterizado principalmente por um distúrbio classificado quanto à severidade como leve. O risco dos familiares dos probandos afetados foi de 8,5%. A gagueira afetou mais pessoas do gênero masculino em relação ao feminino, numa proporção de 3,72:1.

Purpose To analyze the effect of education on sentence listening comprehension on cognitively healthy elderly. Methods A total of 111 healthy elderly, aged 60-80 years of both genders were divided into two groups according to educational level: low education (0-8 years of formal education) and high education (≥9 years of formal education). The participants were assessed using the Revised Token Test, an instrument that supports the evaluation of auditory comprehension of orders with different working memory and syntactic complexity demands. The indicators used for performance analysis were the number of correct responses (accuracy analysis) and task execution time (temporal analysis) in the different blocks. Results The low educated group had a lower number of correct responses than the high educated group on all blocks of the test. In the temporal analysis, participants with low education had longer execution time for commands on the first four blocks related to working memory. However, the two groups had similar execution time for blocks more related to syntactic comprehension. Conclusion Education influenced sentence listening comprehension on elderly. Temporal analysis allowed to infer over the relationship between comprehension and other cognitive abilities, and to observe that the low educated elderly did not use effective compensation strategies to improve their performances on the task. Therefore, low educational level, associated with aging, may potentialize the risks for language decline.
