Long thought to be psychological, researchers have come to know that stuttering has roots in genetics and brain biology, according to Jane Fraser, president of the Stuttering Foundation of America. <br>Recent brain imaging research shows clear differences between stutterers and others. For about one-third of stutterers, studies implicate a brain region involved in auditory processing. <br>Resembling a tiny hearing aid, SpeechEasy is one solution to the problem: it changes the way people hear their own voices. The device raises the pitch of a person's voice and creates a slight delay between talking and hearing. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/nation/2982882" target="blank">www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/nation/2982882</a> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
