Does visual feedback of our tongues help in speech motor learning? Real-time visual feedback of the tongue, provided by ultrasound, can make a difference in speech learning outcomes Date: August 3 ...

One group received visual feedback of their tongue with a sensor under their chin oriented to provide an ultrasound image within the sagittal plane (a slice down the midline, front to back).
