The Influence of Misarticulations on Children's Word Identification and Processing

Conclusions The results of the present studies indicate that the commonness of substitutions influences children's identification of misarticulated words. Children hear common substitutions more frequently and therefore were supported in their identification of these words as real objects. The presence of substitutions, however, slowed reaction time when compared with accurate productions.Supplemental Materialhttps://doi.org/10.23641/asha.5965510
