Study of the Effect of the Auditory Stimulation on Stuttering Symptoms in Patients With a Deficit of Spectral Power in the EEG Beta Frequency Band

Study of the Effect of the Auditory Stimulation on Stuttering Symptoms in Patients With a Deficit of Spectral Power in the EEG Beta Frequency Band

In this study, the investigators will research the efficacy of a novel auditory neuro modulating technology that leverages euphonic music tracks with broad-spectrum binaural beats to induce selective EEG spectral power changes.

Stuttering is a speech disorder that affects more than 70 million people worldwide, limiting their ability to communicate and socialize. During recent decades, several studies have demonstrated a link between stuttering and a deficit of β EEG spectral power.

In this study, the investigators will research the efficacy of a novel auditory neuro modulating technology that leverages euphonic music tracks with broad-spectrum binaural beats to induce selective EEG spectral power changes. Participants are adults with stuttering and without speech disfluencies from the control group will expose to euphonic binaural stimuli for 5 minutes. The brain electrical activity patterns (EEG) and ECG bio-signals will record prior to, during, and after exposure.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Adults with stuttering (stammering) symptoms;

Exclusion Criteria:

• Hearing disabilities;
• Applying other drugs or devices simultaneously;
