What is auditory feedback and give an example?
What Is Auditory Feedback? Auditory feedback refers to the sound(s) you hear after you perform an action. For example, if you drop a pencil, the auditory feedback you receive is the clattering sound of the pencil hitting the floor.
What is a DAF device?
Delayed auditory feedback (DAF) immediately reduces stuttering about 70% at normal speaking rates without training, mental effort, or abnormal-sounding or abnormally slow speech; and trains 55% carryover fluency (after removing the device), without speech therapy.
What is a DAF in stuttering?
Delayed auditory feedback (DAF) is a technique that can induce fluency in individuals who stutter and can make fluent individuals dysfluent. The auditory system, at least at the level of auditory input, is involved in these fluency inducing conditions.
How effective is delayed auditory feedback?
Pitch-shifting frequency-altered auditory feedback is an AAF that immediately reduces stuttering at almost 70% normal speaking rates by inducing speech motor changes. Delayed auditory feedback also reduces stuttering by 70%. It does not need training, abnormally slow speech, or mental effort.
