Verbal Behaviors of Preschool Stutterers and Conversational Partners: Observing Reciprocal Relationships.

Meyers, Susan C.

Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, v55 n4 p706-12 Nov 1990

The conversations of 12 preschool stutterers with their mother, father, and a familiar peer were analyzed. Subjects' verbal interactive patterns did not really differ with various partners. Although some children were variable in fluency failures with different partners, the partner's verbal contribution was not associated with predictable changes in fluency failures. (Author/JDD)
