Current Research Areas
Investigations into the neural mechanisms responsible for inducing
fluent speech in people who stutter.
- Examining the role of mirror neuron systems in speech perception
and simulated production tasks via electroencephalograpy.
- Investigations into clinical efficacy of altered auditory feedback
and other treatments for stuttering.
- Listener reactions to stuttering: Changes in eye-gaze behaviors
and physiological responses. How these reactions may in turn affect
people who stutter and their communicative interactions.
- Anticipatory reactions to stuttering in people who stutter. Changes
in physiological responses of anxiety in anticipation of stuttered
versus fluent speech.
- The effects of stuttering on manual functions.
