Methods, devices and systems treat non-stuttering speech and/or language related disorders by administering a delayed auditory feedback signal having a delay of under about 200 ms via a portable device. The DAF treatment may be delivered on a chronic basis. For certain disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, the delay is set to be under about 100 ms, and may be set to be even shorter such as about 50 ms or less. Certain methods treat cluttering (an abnormally fast speech rate) by exposing the individual to a DAF signal having a sufficient delay that automatically causes the individual to slow his or her speech rate.

La présente invention concerne des méthodes, des dispositifs et des systèmes de traitement de troubles associés à la parole et/ou au langage, autres que le bégaiement, par administration d'un signal de rétroaction auditive différée présentant un retard inférieur à environ 200 ms via un dispositif portable. Le traitement DAF peut être administré sur une base chronique. Pour certains troubles, tels que la maladie de Parkinson, le retard est défini de façon à être inférieur à environ 100 ms et peut être défini de façon à être plus court, tel qu'inférieur ou égal à environ 50 ms. Certaines méthodes permettent de traiter le bredouillement (débit de parole anormalement rapide) par exposition de l'individu à un signal DAF présentant un retard suffisant qui amène automatiquement l'individu à ralentir son débit de parole.
