Private Speech
The Relationship between College Students' Private Speech and Task Difficulty
Private speech is speech that is not addressed towards anyone other than the speaker. There are two forms of private speech: overt and covert. Overt private speech is expressed out loud, whereas covert private speech is expressed inside the mind and not spoken aloud. In the past, researchers have used numerous terms to describe private speech, including egocentric speech, self-talk, self statements, and self-directed speech. For the purpose of the present research study, we will only concentrate on overt or out loud private speech.
