Abstract
Simultaneous motion pictures and sound recordings were made of 33 stutterers as they spoke short phrases under instructions to repeat any phrase upon which stuttering occurred and to continue saying it until it was spoken without stuttering. These samples were descriptively analyzed for the presence, sequential order, and consistency of stuttering behavior by 22 graduate students. The relative closeness of a specific behavior to a stuttering block has little effect upon the number of times a specific behavior is repeated in successive blocks on the same word.
