Each of 121 stutterers and 121 nonstutterers read a passage three times consecutively. The following types of speech disfluency were identified from tape recordings of the readings: part-word repetition, word repetition, phrase repetition, interjection of sounds and syllables, revision, and disrhythmic phonation. With the exception of revision and interjection for stutterers, the adaptation effect was observed for each type of disfluency in both groups of subjects. These data are generally consistent with the hypothesis that the adaptation effect, as it has traditionally been studied in oral reading, does not differentiate stutterers from nonstutterers. |
