The investigators sought to explore and compare the identification of cluttering vs stuttering in four different country samples. After reading lay definitions of the two fluency disorders in their own language, convenience samples of 60-90 adult respondents from Turkey, Bulgaria, Russia, and the US identified 51-119 children or adults who either cluttered, stuttered, or both. They also indicated whether or not they, themselves, cluttered or stuttered. The majority of respondents in all four samples identified at least one person who cluttered, stuttered, or cluttered and stuttered. The average respondent identified one person with a fluency disorder, most likely a stutterer, less likely a clutterer, and least likely a clutterer-stutterer. Both similarities and differences characterized those identified in the three groups, e.g., the sex ratios were not the same. As with stuttering, the public apparently is aware of cluttering individuals and can identify such persons.
研究人员试图在四个不同国家的样本中探索并比较对言语紊乱和口吃的识别情况。在阅读了用各自语言给出的这两种流畅性障碍的通俗定义后，来自土耳其、保加利亚、俄罗斯和美国的60至90名成年受访者的便利样本，识别出了51至119名存在言语紊乱、口吃或两者皆有的儿童或成人。他们还表明自己是否存在言语紊乱或口吃。在所有四个样本中，大多数受访者都识别出了至少一个存在言语紊乱、口吃或两者皆有的个体。平均每位受访者识别出一名有流畅性障碍的人，最有可能是口吃者，较少可能是言语紊乱者，最不可能是既言语紊乱又口吃者。三组中被识别出的个体既有相似之处也有不同之处，例如，性别比例并不相同。与口吃一样，公众显然了解存在言语紊乱的个体并能够识别出这类人。
