description The possibility of  central auditory involvement in stutterers was investigated. Five confirmed  stutterers and five  nonstutterers between the ages of  20 and 26 years served as subjects. The Phonetically Balanced CID W-22 Auditory Lists presented with ipsilateral and contralateral white noise broad band masking (at signal to noise ratios of  0 dB and -lOdB) and the Staggered Spondaic Word Test were utilized. No significant differences between the groups were revealed, indicating intact functioning  of  both groups on these tests. Possible reasons for  this were postulated. Response trends exhibited by all subjects were discussed.
