Abstract

The objective of this chapter is to provide a concise overview of speech, language, and cognitive processes in developmental stuttering. We will begin with an introduction to the topic, followed by a discussion of linguistic constraints on stuttering—that is, linguistic factors that influence which words and/or utterances are likely to be stuttered. The speech and language abilities of individuals who stutter will then be considered, along with the potential impact of executive function and attention. By the end of this chapter, the reader will have a basic understanding of these tripartite processes as they relate to the onset and development of stuttering, as well as some of the theory that undergirds our knowledge of the interrelationships among stuttering, speech, language, and cognition. We will also consider the extent to which our knowledge of these processes assists with clinical decision-making, setting the stage for Chapter 13 Language and Phonological Considerations.
