The Adaptation Effect for Six Types of Speech Disfluency
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Silverman, Franklin H.; Williams, Dean E. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1971
With the exception of revision and interjection for stutterers, the adaptation effect (reduction in disfluencies after repeated oral reading) was observed for each of six types of disfluencies among both stutterers and nonstutterers. (KW)

The Effect of Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation on the Disfluency of Nonstutterers
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Silverman, Franklin H. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1971
Twenty adult male nonstutterers became more fluent when pacing their speech with a metronome. The degree to which they became more fluent was within the range which has been reported for stutterers. This finding suggests that the effect of the metronome on stuttering is not primarily a result of distraction. (Author/KW)
