Motor Speech/Dysarthria/Apraxia
Research suggests individuals with dysarthria have significantly increased speech errors and a slower rate when verbalizing challenging tongue twisters. Tongue twisters are often filled with alliterations or sounds repeated in close succession. This material provides evidence to support practicing verbalizing alliterations and tongue twisters to target articulatory precision and prosodic strategies and provides examples for practice.
