DAF (Delayed Auditory Feedback)

Delayed Auditory Feedback (DAF) is a technique where a person's speech is played back to them with a slight delay. This can create a sense of disruption when speaking, making it harder for people to maintain their normal flow of speech. DAF is often used in speech therapy to help individuals who stutter or have speech difficulties. The delay forces the speaker to focus on their words differently, which can help improve their fluency over time. It’s also studied in psychology to understand how feedback affects speech production and communication.
