Sažetak
Although some researchers reported 30 - 40% incidence of phonological disorders among children who stutter (Wolk,
Edwards i Conture, 1993, Melnick i Conture, 2000), the connection between stuttering and phonological disorders has not yet been strongly confirmed. The aim of this research was to determine possible connection between stuttering and the phonemic awareness. The group of 21 children who stutter and their fluent pairs were compared on initial phoneme identification, final phoneme identification, phoneme analysis, and phoneme synthesis tasks. The subjects were between the ages 5; 3 and 7; 0 (years; months). According to results of statistical analysis, children who do not stutter performed better on phoneme analysis task then children who stutter. The results of initial phoneme identification task and final phoneme
identification task, and and synthesis task showed no significant difference between groups.
