dc.description.abstractThe results of this study indicated that participants accurately and reliably differentiated normal from abnormal speech samples. Thus, all groups proficiently identified disordered cases while limiting the number of misdiagnoses; however, some degree of task difficulty was noted and clinical biases were evident. For this research question, group trends indicated that the most experienced group of participants adopted a more lenient diagnostic criterion as compared to the intermediate and novice groups.
