A Point Of View About ‘Stuttering’

Abstract
The speech behavior patterns usually associated with stuttering vary from person to person and from time to time with any given person, in many ways. The meanings the speaker gives to certain "feelings" and emotional states tend to vary. Such variability should prompt the clinician to discontinue talking about stuttering as if it were a vague, undefinable entity. Instead, the clinician should learn to deal with each subject by discussing, on a descriptive level, the speech behavior patterns as they vary from those involved in normal speech.
