(Dis)fluencies in children’s speech

Methodology

There were three age groups in this research, 30 children altogether, from the GABI database (Bóna et al. 2019). There were ten 5-year-old nursery school children, ten 7-year-old school children who go to first class and ten 9-year-old school children who go to third class. The 7-year-old children have already started learning to read during the analysis. Children, except from their sex, were selected randomly from the three age ranges. There were five boys and five girls in each age groups, in order to reach sex equivalence in the study, although dealing with differences between girls and boys was not the goal of this study, hence, sex as a variable is not analyzed here.

Nyelvészet

Disfluencies (filled pauses, filler words, repetitions, part-word repetitions, prolongations, broken words, and revisions) are natural phenomena of everyday speech. They are insights on the speech planning processes indicating speech planning difficulties or self-monitoring, and play an important role in turn-taking during conversations. The occurrences of disfluencies in speech are affected by several factors. One of these is the speaker’s age. This volume is a collection of nine articles on the topic of speech planning and speech production of children from the aspects of fluency, disfluency, speech tempo, and pausing. The volume is recommended to linguists, experts of phonetics and psycholinguistics, speech and language therapists, university students, child language specialists, and everybody who is interested in child language
