Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book goes beyond instilling hope; its mission is to provide a concrete and highly effective pathway to overcome the challenges of stuttering. As you embark on this journey, know that I, too, have traveled this path-a journey that took me from the depths of severe stuttering to the liberating realm of fluent speech. You've likely picked up this book because previous attempts to conquer stuttering have left you seeking answers. Traditional avenues such as speech therapy, stuttering support websites, and conventional resources, unfortunately, have a dismal track record in assisting individuals in their quest to stop stuttering. Here's the good news: a paradigm shift for stutterers is finally underway. A paradigm shift represents a radical change in thinking from an accepted point of view to a new one, driven by an advancement of knowledge that has a profound, large-scale impact. Those who cling to the existing paradigm may resist contradictory theories or evidence that challenge their established views or practices. However, it's essential to be open to new possibilities and discoveries. The brain's capacity for creation and evolution knows no bounds. We wield more influence over the shaping of our brains than we once imagined. We are not mere spectators or victims of our brain's neural network. We are active participants, steering the course of our brain's evolution. This extraordinary capacity of the brain to change is known as neuroplasticity. Neuroplasticity is the phenomenon through which the structure of our brains undergoes constant transformation in response to the multitude of experiences and thoughts, whether positive or negative, that we encounter. It extends to every habit we cultivate, including the challenges faced by those who stutter. The revelation of neuroplasticity heralds a monumental breakthrough in our understanding of the human brain. If your goal is to stop stuttering altogether, it's time to explore the world of neuroplasticity. It's time to move past mainstream thinking about stuttering and embrace the power of brain neuroplasticity to overcome this challenge. The paradigm shift is here, and it's time to stop stuttering and start living a life free from the constraints of speech dysfluency. Within the pages of this self-improvement book, we will explore the StutterMind Neuroscience Protocol, an easy-to-follow, practical, and effective self-help method designed rewire the brain and eliminate stuttering. This self-help method, based on the principles of brain neuroplasticity, has not only been a transformative force in my life but also serves as a guiding light for you to achieve the same success. Included in the book are exclusive links (QR Codes) to supplementary videos explaining the principals of brain neuroplasticity and coaching on the use of practical Tools to avoid any stutter. Together, we will explore the tools, brain training exercises, and support resources that will empower you to break free from the chains of stuttering and realize the full potential of your life with confident and fluent communication. Your path to Stop Stuttering starts here! Michael Ferris Neuroplastician and Author

Book excerpt: SSI-4: stuttering Severity instrument - Fourth Edition is a reliable and valid norm-referenced stuttering assessment that can be used for both clinical and search purposes. It measures stuttering severity in both children and adults in the four areas of speech behavior: (1) frequency, (2) duration, (3) physical concomitants, and (4) naturalness of the individual's speech. Frequency is expressed in percent syllables stuttered and converted to scale scores of 2-18. Duration is timed to the nearest one tenth of a second and converted to scale scores of 2-18. The four types of Physical Concomitants are and converted to scale scores of 0-20. The SSI-4 can also be used in conjunction with the stuttering prediction instruments for Young Children (SPI). SSI-4 was normed on a sample of 72 preschool-aged children, 139 school-aged children, and 60 adults. It has four components, each of which is used to assess and monitor the stuttering severity in both children and adults for clinical and research use: (1) Examiner's Manual and Picture Plates, (2) Test Record and Frequency Computation Forms, (3) Subjective stuttering Scales, and (4) Computerized Scoring of stuttering Severity (Software Version 2.0). The Computerized Scoring of the stuttering Severity (Version 2; CSSS-2.0) software is provided to facilitate the calculation of frequency and duration. The CSSS-2.0 automatically produces a record of the percentage of syllables stuttered (frequency) and the duration of the three longest stuttering events.

Download or read book Rhythm Music and the Brain written by Michael Thaut and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the advent of modern cognitive neuroscience and new tools of studying the human brain "live," music as a highly complex, temporally ordered and rule-based sensory language quickly became a fascinating topic of study. The question of "how" music moves us, stimulates our thoughts, feelings, and kinesthetic sense, and how it can reach the human experience in profound ways is now measured with the advent of modern cognitive neuroscience. The goal of Rhythm, Music and the Brain is an attempt to bring the knowledge of the arts and the sciences and review our current state of study about the brain and music, specifically rhythm. The author provides a thorough examination of the current state of research, including the biomedical applications of neurological music therapy in sensorimotor speech and cognitive rehabilitation. This book will be of interest for the lay and professional reader in the sciences and arts as well as the professionals in the fields of neuroscientific research, medicine, and rehabilitation.

Download or read book Neuro Education and Neuro Rehabilitation written by Eduardo Martínez-Montes and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2016-11-04 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, important discoveries have been made in cognitive neuroscience regarding brain plasticity and learning such as the mirror neurons system and the anatomo-functional organization of perceptual, cognitive and motor abilities.... Time has come to consider the societal impact of these findings. The aim of this Research Topic of Frontiers in Psychology is to concentrate on two domains: neuro-education and neuro-rehabilitation. At the interface between neuroscience, psychology and education, neuro-education is a new inter-disciplinary emerging field that aims at developing new education programs based on results from cognitive neuroscience and psychology. For instance, brain-based learning methods are flourishing but few have been rigorously tested using well-controlled procedures. Authors of this Research Topic will present their latest findings in this domain using rigorously controlled experiments. Neuro-rehabilitation aims at developing new rehabilitation methods for children and adults with learning disorders. Neuro-rehabilitation programs can be based upon a relatively low number of patients and controls or on large clinical trials to test for the efficiency of new treatments. These projects may also aim at testing the efficiency of video-games and of new methods such as Trans Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for therapeutic interventions in children or adolescents with learning disabilities. This Research Topic will bring together neuroscientists interested in brain plasticity and the effects of training, psychologists working with adults as well as with normally developing children and children with learning disabilities as well as education researchers directly confronted with the efficiency of education programs. The goal for each author is to describe the state of the art in his/her specific research domain and to illustrate how her/his research findings can impact education in the classroom or rehabilitation of children and adolescents with learning disorders.

Download or read book More Than Fluency the Social Emotional and Cognitive Dimensions of Stuttering written by Barbara J. Amster and published by Plural Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More Than Fluency: The Social, Emotional, and Cognitive Dimensions of Stutteringprovides a thoughtful and contemporary framework for speech-language pathologists and others working with people who stutter. The text focuses on the social, emotional, and cognitive realms of stuttering and offers new insights and applications based on research in the field. It guides the reader through theoretical discussions about the social experiences, emotional complications, and cognitive interpretations that often influence the person who stutters. The text also offers practical strategies for intervention from contributing authors who are prominent theorists, researchers, and practitioners in the field of fluency and stuttering. In line with the current multifactorial view of stuttering, More Than Fluency emphasizes the social, emotional, and cognitive aspects of stuttering, drawing important connections between them. The authors present a variety of therapeutic interventions and techniques along with practical guidelines that have been designed to alleviate distress in those who stutter. Although these interventions differ in approach, each offers their own roadmap to support and empower people who stutter. The idea for this book grew out of the insights gained from listening to both clients and graduate students. Clients wanted to talk about their life experiences as a person who stutters. Graduate students often described their worry and uncertainty when dealing with the emotional and social issues of their clients who stutter. Similarly, many practicing speech-language pathologists also have concerns about treating people who stutter, especially regarding the social, emotional, and cognitive aspects of the disorder, areas not typically taught in traditional coursework. More Than Fluency was developed for practicing speech-language pathologists and other professionals who evaluate and treat people who stutter. It is also intended to be an academic textbook used in graduate courses on fluency and stuttering. This text provides a collection of well-thought-out programs and approaches that help treat the whole person, not just his or her stuttering. The authors believe that this is best practice because successfully treating a person who stutters encompasses treating more than fluency.
