Errors in Inner Speech

Abstract

(from the chapter) investigate the properties of inner speech in a somewhat unusual way, by looking at the "tongue" slips that seem to occur in it / the first experiment compared inner slips that [adult] subjects reported "hearing" when imagining tongue twisters with the overt slips that a different group of subjects made when saying the same stimuli aloud / the second experiment extended this comparison to practice effects / the subjects either mentally or overtly practiced saying tongue twisters, and the effect of this practice on the frequency of slips in both inner and overt speech was assessed (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2003 APA, all rights reserved)
