The effect of delayed auditory feedback (DAF) was evaluated in 10 normal human controls, 10 non-fluent aphasics and 10 fluent aphasics. Speech production tasks consisted of repeating sound and words; naming objects; producing sentences from given stimulus words; answering questions; reciting nursery rhymes and reading. Two delays were used, 180 and 360 ms. Two independent judges rated patients'' responses for changes in intensity, duration and quality of speech. All subjects including all the fluent aphasics showed some DAF effect. Fluent aphasics showed a significantly smaller DAF effect than non-fluent aphasics. Patients with conduction aphasia appeared to be the least impaired. Overall DAF effect was greater with 180 ms than with 360 ms. The largest DAF effect occurred during answering questions, followed by repeating, reading, nursery rhymes, sentence production and naming, in that order. Repetition of a complex word produced a greater DAF effect than repetition of a simple sound. A differential effect of DAF was found on the 3 measures used in the study. DAF effects apparently result from changes in 2 separate monitoring systems. One system is related to changes in the intensity of speech and does not appear to be affected by aphasia. The other is responsible for duration and qualitative changes in speech and is differentially affected in relation to pathology producing aphasia.
