Filter by:The proposed study aims to investigate the effect of combined transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and behavioural speech training in improving speech fluency in Cantonese-speaking adults who stutter (AWS), and to examine its maintenance over a 6-week period.
In this study, the investigators will research the efficacy of a novel auditory neuro modulating technology that leverages euphonic music tracks with broad-spectrum binaural beats to induce selective EEG spectral power changes.
This research will give in-depth understanding of pantomiming and easy onset method as an intervention of stuttering and especially blocking. And by comparing both methods, It will also determine that which method is more effective. This research will also improve the overall awareness regarding stuttering
This is a pilot randomised controlled trial investigating whether using modification of saccadic eye movements can control lateral unconscious tongue positioning and enhance fluency in adults with a confirmed developmental stammer. This study is being conducted as part of an MSc by research qualification at the Institute of Technology Sligo in Ireland with a view to extending to PhD. The setting is home setting with all assessments either taking place at home via video link or in the institute. The study is being conducted in conjunction with the Community Speech and Language Therapist and has attained ethical approval through Sligo University Hospital (SUH) Ethics Committee.
The aim of the study is to answer the question: Is a large-scale research study of the effectiveness of group speech and language therapy (SALT) for young people who stammer possible? The study will look at the issues involved in setting up a large-scale investigation of treatment for young people who stammer. It will inform the investigators whether larger studies would be possible and give some early-stage information on the effectiveness of group SALT for these young people. The findings will pave the way for building and testing out treatment programmes where there will be clear positive benefit for young people who stammer and their families. To answer the research question, the study will tell the investigators (a) how easy/difficult it was to get people to take part, (b) young people and parents'/carers' views on taking part and (c) whether the assessments were able to pick up changes in speech and attitudes towards stammering reported by the young people and their carers. Sufficient numbers of participants were not recruited to carry out the intended rehearsal pilot RCT study design.
