Originary neurogenic, non-syndromatic stuttering has been linked to a dysfunctional sensorimotor system. Studies have demonstrated that adults who stutter (AWS) perform poorly at speech and finger motor tasks learning (e.g., Smits-Bandstra et al., 2006b; Namasivayam van Lieshout, 2008).

In this study, we tested sequence skills AWS...
