Parameters of the Influence of Self-Initiated Time-Out from Speaking on Stuttering.
James, Jack E.
Journal of Communication Disorders, v16 n2 p123-32 Mar 1983
The influence of two parameters of self-initiated time-out from speaking were investigated with 33 adolescent and adult stutterers. When given the opportunity to determine time-out duration, subjects chose a relatively brief period. Significant improvements in fluency were observed during all three time-out conditions.
