Current research available for this population of children primarily centers on aspects of their speech production skills. Considerably less is known about underlying processes that may contribute to speech production deficit in this population of children, such as speech perception. In this brief paper, we discuss what we know from research about speech perception in children with persistent SSD and the clinical ramifications and recommendations for children who have perceptual deficits.
