The purpose of this study was to examine the nature and frequency of occurrence of disfluencies, as they occur in singletons and in clusters, in the conversational speech of individuals who clutter compared to typical speakers. Except for two disfluency types (revisions in clusters, and word repetitions in clusters) nearly all disfluency types were virtually indistinguishable in frequency of occurrence between the two groups. These findings shed light on cluttering in several respects, foremost of which is that it provides documentation on the nature of disfluencies in cluttering. Findings also have implications for our understanding of the relationship between cluttering and typical speech, cluttering and stuttering, the Cluttering Spectrum Hypothesis, as well as the Lowest Common Denominator definition of cluttering.
At the end of this activity the reader will be able to: (a) identify types of disfluency associated with cluttered speech; (b) contrast disfluencies in cluttered speech with those associated with stuttering; (c) compare the disfluencies of typical speakers with those of cluttering; (d) explain the perceptual nature of cluttering.
本研究旨在考察在单个和多个连续出现的情况下,与典型说话者相比,口吃者会话语音中出现的不流畅现象的性质和频率。除了两种不流畅类型(集群中的修订和集群中的单词重复)外,几乎所有不流畅类型在两组中的发生频率都几乎无法区分。这些发现从几个方面揭示了口吃现象,其中最重要的是,它提供了口吃者不流畅现象的本质的文档记录。研究结果还对我们对口吃与典型言语的关系、口吃与口吃的关系、口吃谱假说以及口吃的最低共同标准定义的理解产生了影响。
在本活动结束时,读者将能够:(a)识别与口吃言语相关的不流畅类型;(b)对比口吃言语中的不流畅与口吃相关的不流畅;(c)比较典型说话者与口吃者的不流畅;(d)解释口吃的感知性质。
