Winslow, Mary; Guitar, Barry
Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, v25 n4 p251-57 Oct 1994
This study examined the effects of structured conversational turn-taking on disfluencies and speech rate of a boy (age 5) who stuttered, based on dinner-time conversations in the subject's home. Results indicated that disfluencies decreased when structured conversational turn-taking was instituted and increased when turn-taking conditions were not enforced. (Author/JDD)
