Sažetak
Speech performance could be the result of either the capacities of the system itself and/or the speech skills which have been learned over a period of time. Concept skill is considered as a fundamental characteristic of motor production whose development can be seen as a continuum proceeding through stages from a cognitive stage to an automatic performance. Results from different researches have revealed that a persons who stutters differs from a person with a normal speech production regarding the kinematic, orofacial nonspeech and speech tasks led as to a tentative conclusion that stutterers are more toward the weak and of the speech motor skill continuum and that there is dysfunction within the cortical and subcortical areas of the motor control system wider than that pertaining to speech motor behaviors alone. The purpose of this investigation was to explore speech motor skill in children who stutter and to find out if there is a correlation between motor-speech skill tasks and subtests of Riley Instrument as well as to find out possibly differences between stutterers and non stutterers. Thirteen children who stutter participated in the study performing tasks built up in the protocol of Motor Speech Program. In the time of study subjects were involved in speech treatment in Polyclinic SUVAG. Results have been analyzed on the level of univariant statistics with software Statistica for Windows.
