Brown, C. J.; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1990
Comparison of 10 stuttering and 10 nonstuttering young adult subjects on self-paced rhythmic tasks at various rates found that the stutterers performed more slowly than the nonstutterers and were less variable than nonstutterers suggesting less flexible systems more susceptible to breakdown.

Prins, David; Hubbard, Carol P. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1990
The study found no significant trends in the change of acoustical durations of stutter- and disfluency-free speech from readings in an adaptation series with four adapting, four nonadapting, and four nonstuttering subjects (all young adults). Findings suggest that adaptation of stuttering and other fluency-inducing conditions are a result of…

Packman, Ann; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1994
This study investigated changes in the speech patterns of young adult male subjects when stuttering was modified by deliberately prolonging speech. Three subjects showed clinically significant stuttering reductions when using prolonged speech to reduce their stuttering. Resulting speech was perceptually stutter free. Acoustic and…

Ingham, Roger J.; Packman, Ann C. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1978
The study reported an evaluation procedure where listeners endeavored to distinguish between intermingled speech samples obtained from nine treated stutterers and a peer group of nine normally fluent speakers (13 to 24 years old). (Author/SBH)

Prins, David; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1991
The occurrence of stuttering on stress-peak and unstressed syllables in connected speech was studied in 10 young adult stutterers. Results showed a significant coincidence of stutter events and syllabic stress peaks, particularly in polysyllabic words, though stuttering on the first three words of principal clauses appeared independent of syllabic…
