MPI-2 Stuttering Treatment vs. DAF Pro: Stuttering,Stammering Utilizzo e statistiche

The MPI-2 Stuttering Treatment application is a specially designed tool to provide professional treatment to individuals who stutter. The Modifying Phonation Intervals (MPI-2) Stuttering Treatment Program is designed to teach mainly adolescents and adults who stutter to achieve generalized stutter-free and normal sounding speech by speaking with a reduced number of short intervals of phonation (PI=phonation interval). The program is a performance-contingent, biofeedback system that employs software (iOS MPI-2 application) and hardware (iPad, iPad Mini, or iPhone and a throat microphone/accelerometer with single earpiece assembly). Targeted PIs are recorded from the surface of the speaker’s throat and their occurrence is automatically fed back to the speaker during treatment. Special advantages of the MPI-2 are: its development by expert clinical researchers as a complete evidence-based treatment program – including establishment, transfer and maintenance of fluent speech, and its portability –which facilitates a significant role for the client in managing the treatment and the ability to practice newly learned speech patterns away from the clinic setting while being monitored by the software and/or the clinician. A general description of the MPI-2 Stuttering Treatment Program, along with pre- and post-treatment speaking samples, as well as links to the research publications underlying development of the MPI-2, can be accessed at the MPI-2 website at http://www.mpi2.com. In order to start the treatment program, the potential client needs to install the MPI-2 Stuttering Treatment Program application first on an iPhone or iPad, and then choose a clinician (via the “Find Clinician” button on the home screen). After the request has been received, the clinician will contact you to evaluate your condition and discussion additional details, including the cost of the clinician’s clinical services. All MPI-2 clinicians have earned master’s degrees as speech-language pathologists and the Certificate of Clinical Competence from the American Speech-Language Hearing Association and are also certified as MPI-2 clinicians.

DAF Pro: Stuttering,Stammering

* The world's number 1 DAF app is used by thousands of people in over one hundred countries. * DAF Professional has been created to help people who stammer or have a neurological disease such as Parkinson's Disease. It helps people to slow their rate of speech which makes it clearer to others. DAF Professional is an easy to use professional speech therapy tool which could make a huge difference to you or someone you know. DAF Professional has been designed and tested by a certified and practicing Speech and Language Therapist (MSc, PGDip, BAHons, HPC registered and member of RCSLT). DAF Professional delivers incredibly low latency feedback even when running in the background. Delayed Auditory Feedback (DAF) is a well established speech and language therapy tool which helps people to speak more slowly. However, until recently, devices have been cumbersome to carry around, difficult to adjust, very expensive and therefore not widely used. DAF was originally developed for people who stammer, but has since been shown to work with people with other speech difficulties, such as those with Parkinson's Disease (Downie et al., 1981; Dagenaise, Outhwood & Lee, 1998; Lowit et al., 2006 and most recentely Lowit et al., 2010). It works by enabling someone to hear his or her own speech in an altered manner. This disruption to the normal auditory feedback loop causes the speaker to slow down. Research has shown that DAF will be of benefit to approximately a third of people who have a stammer or Parkinson's. Clinical research has not been carried out as yet on other client groups however DAF may well be of benefit to people with other medical speech conditions. When using Bluetooth devices there is an additional delay of 60ms added to the feedback system. If you do use a Bluetooth headset you may find you need to turn the bluetooth device on after opening the app to enable it. DAF Professional works when put in the background or the screen is turned off. Like all apps of this type, it can NOT work during phone calls or with other media apps playing at the same time. If you wish to provide any feedback we would be delighted to hear from you. Please email us at support@speechtools.co.
