Summary

Adults who stutter (AWS) and adults who do not stutter (AWNS) showed no differences in inhibitory control during an eye-movement task. This suggests no executive control deficits in AWS during simple, non-speech tasks.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Speech-Language Pathology

Background:

  • Executive control, including inhibitory control, is crucial for fluent speech.
  • Previous research suggests potential executive function differences in adults who stutter (AWS).
  • Oculomotor tasks offer a non-speech paradigm to investigate executive control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate executive control, specifically inhibitory control, in adults who stutter (AWS) compared to adults who do not stutter (AWNS).
  • To utilize an antisaccade eye-movement task to assess inhibitory processes in a non-speech context.

Main Methods:

  • Seventeen AWS and 17 AWNS completed a prosaccade and antisaccade eye-movement task.
  • Target distance (short vs. long) was manipulated.
  • Accuracy and reaction time of saccades were measured.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences in accuracy or reaction time were observed between AWS and AWNS.
  • Both groups performed better on prosaccade than antisaccade trials.
  • Both groups exhibited longer saccade latencies for antisaccade vs. prosaccade and long vs. short distances.

Conclusions:

  • Preliminary findings do not support the presence of inhibition deficits in AWS during a simple, non-speech oculomotor task.
  • Further research is needed to fully understand executive control in stuttering.
