Evaluation of central auditory processing skills in children with stuttering
The observed pattern of results characterized by deficits in FPT, DPT, and dichotic auditory tasks aligns with theoretical models that implicate interhemispheric transfer in stuttering. Based on our behavioral data, we propose a hypothesis: the core difficulty may not lie in right-to-left hemisphere transfer, but in the longer loop of left-to-right and back again, potentially introducing critical timing delays in sound processing. It is recommended that interhemispheric training be implemented as part of stuttering interventions.plemented as part of stuttering int.
