Research Abstract |
This study investigated speech and gait motor controls. Summary : 1.fMRI study showed that activation of the basal ganglia increased when the stuttering speakers used fluency-enhancing method. 2.fMRI experiment showed that the basal ganglia are important for the internal rhythm generation in gait control. 3.The increase of the loudness perception through auditory feedback was found to be larger than the increase of actual speech sound pressure.
