Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine whether stuttering is associated with a tendency to attend more quickly or for longer durations to threat-related information in the environment (threat-related attention bias). The main questions it aims to answer are:

Do adults who stutter, relative to adults who do not stutter, attend to threat-related stimuli more than neutral information? Are attentional biases observed across different types of threat or are they specific to threats related to stuttering experiences? Do measures of attention bias explain individual differences in psychological reactions among adults who stutter?

Conditions

  • Stuttering, Adult

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Threat-related stimulus exposure

Participants will view threat-related stimuli (words or faces) paired with nonthreat matches in three related experimental paradigms.
