“…The use of relative clauses has been mastered by English-speaking children by middle and late childhood (Diessel & Tomasello, 2001). Although complex syntactic tasks that elicit high processing demands affect stuttering frequency in adults (Tsiamtsiouris & Cairns, 2013), our finding is consistent with the point made by Silverman and Ratner (1997) that the negative effects of syntactic complexity on the speech motor systems of CWS may reduce with increasing age. For example, Walsh et al (2015) found that 4-to 5-yearold CWS produced short simple sentences with significantly greater articulatory variability compared with CWNS.…”

The speech motor systems of school-age CWS appear to be particularly vulnerable to processing demands associated with increased sentence length, as evidenced by increased LAVar. Increasing the length and complexity of the sentence stimuli also resulted in reduced production accuracy and increased stuttering frequency. We discuss these findings within a motor control framework of speech production.

“…In future research, however, it might be feasible to use non-reading speaking tasks such as modeled sentences or production of rehearsed sentences, both of which provide some control over sentence form and content. Both Logan (2001) and Tsiamtsiouris and Cairns (2013) provide examples of such tasks.…”

“…A hallás utáni mondatismétlés komplex mentális folyamatokat igényel, pontos működése számos tényező függvénye. Döntően meghatározza a memória (mind a rövid idejű, mind a hosszú idejű emlékezet) működése (Jefferies et al 2004;Potter-Lombardi 1990), hiszen vissza kell emlékeznünk az elhangzó közlésnek/mondatnak nemcsak a hangszerkezetére, de a közlés/mondat formájára, annak grammatikai szerkezetére, a szórendre, a szavak számára (Tsiamtsiouris-Smith Cairns 2013). Az egyén beszédpercepciós mechanizmusa s a beszédprodukciós folyamatok szintén befolyásolják a mondatismétlést (Gósy 2016;Nag et al 2017).…”

“…A mondatok helyességét a szakirodalom szerint a mondatok grammatikai komplexitása nagymértékben behatárolja (Tsiamtsiouris-Smith Cairns 2013). Ezért feltételeztem, hogy a mondatok terjedelme és a grammatikai szerkezete egyaránt befolyásolja a mondatok ismétlésének helyességét.…”

The aim of present research is to analyse the verbal memory of teenagers on the basis of their sentence repetition task. We try to answer the question whether the age and the school type how can characterize their sentence repetition. Our hypothesis was, that the age and the school type can influance on their sentence repetition but the influance of the school type is stronger than the age factor. We also thought that the structure of the sentences and the number of the syllables of the words whic construct the sentences can influance the punctuality of their sentence repetition results. In order to discuss the hypothesis the series of experiment was carried out with the participation of teenagers (16 and 18 years, from the secondary grammar and secondary technical school). The test material consisted of 20 sentences, the students task was to repeat them after they had heard them. The analysis was in terms of punctuality, and we also analysed the length and the grammatical structure of the sentences in tems of the punctuality, furthermore the unfilled pauses occurring during the repetiton task and the time of the pauses, even the the types of errors in the incorrect sentences. The statistical anlysis was also done. The results showed that the elder students reached better achievement especielly those who are studying in the grammar school The repetition of shorter sentences was also better. The analysis of mistakes showed different results in terms of the school type and proved the memory capacity problems of the students studying in different school type.
