Abstract
Children (30) who had spontaneously outgrown functional articulatory disorders were compared to 30 who had retained some of them. Children who retain speech errors are inferior in gross motor tasks to those who outgrow them. Speech sound discrimination ability did not differentiate the two groups. Mothers of children who retain speech errors tend toward "emotional immaturity and instability" more than do mothers of children who outgrow such errors.Keywords
