Abstract
Receptive and expressive language age equivalency scores for sixteen 5–9-year-old stutterers were obtained to determine if differences exist between receptive and expressive language skills of young stutterers. The finding that the young stutterers were not delayed in their receptive language skills but were delayed in their expressive language skills was interpreted as support for the hypothesis that language deficits observed in stuttering children result, at least in part, from their attempts to simplify verbal responses as a means of coping with their stuttering.
