Wexler, Karin B.

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v25 n2 p229-34 Jun 1982

Disfluency characteristics of 36 nonstuttering boys aged two, four, and six years were analyzed from tape recorded speech samples made during free play within neutral and stress situations. Comparisons of frequency of disfluency were made among the different ages within each situation and between the neutral and stress situations. (Author)
