There is no
definitive explanation for why speaking in unison tends to alleviate
stuttering, but that doesn’t mean the concept cannot be put to good use.
This ABC News program reports on the remarkable SpeechEasy, an unobtrusive
fluency device that uses altered auditory feedback to create a choral
effect. The Emmy Award-winning first segment profiles speech therapist and
co-inventor Joseph Kalinowski, who explains how the SpeechEasy works.
Segment two follows up with the story of a young man for whom the device has
been nothing short of a miracle. The program also identifies factors that
may predispose a person to stuttering and sensitively addresses the
emotional anguish that so often accompanies the disorder. (17 minutes)
