Abstract
The purpose of this study was to
examine the relationship between
non-nutritive sucking (NSS) and
speech sound development in young
children. Non-nutritive sucking
(e.g., pacifier use) is thought to have
both positive and negative effects
on the populations who adopt its
practices. Pacifier use is related to
reductions in both the amount of
time preterm infants are tube fed
and the duration of the infant’s
hospital stay (Field, et al., 1982).
