Stuttering Mystery
February 2nd, 2007 Jan Posted in General News | Comments Off
Much is still unknown about why stutters stutter. Stutters have non-verbal communicating skills like writing, typing, and reading abilities that are within normal ranges when tested. Verbal communication is impaired though.
Stuttering is a condition that affects a person’s speech. A stutterer will become “stuck” on some sounds. The more serious the stuttering the longer the list of sounds that cause problems and/or the frequency that the stutterer becomes stuck. It is known that stuttering can be hereditary.
A device called the SpeechEasy is helping many stutterers speak normally and reducing the severity of stuttering. It aids speech in the same way that glasses aid sight. The device fits easily in the ear, similar to a hearing aid. It is known that stutters who speak in unison with an individual or in a chorus, they don’t stutter. This is referred to as the “choral effect”. The SpeechEasy device replicates the choral effect by delaying playback of their stutter’s own voice and changing the pitch.
Famous people who have overcome stuttering problems:
- Bruce Willis
- Julia Roberts
- Jimmy Stewart
- Johnny Damon
- Tiger Woods
- John Updike
- Kenyon Martin
- Carly Simon
- Marilyn Monroe
The mystery of why stuttering occurs hasn’t been solved yet, but there is relief available.
