Repetition of Final Consonants in the Speech of a Young Child

Donald E. Mowrer 1

1 Arizona State University, Tempe

This study of final-consonant repetitions in the speech of a young child supports the notion that some speech disfluencies may result from parental attempts to accelerate phonological development. An analysis of twelve frac12-hr long observations of the subject's speech during a 1-year period is presented. The presence, decrease, and subsequent disappearance of the final-consonant repetitions that resembled stuttering behavior are discussed in terms of environmental factors.
