The relationship of syllabic stress, word onsets, and stuttering was examined on selected words within a set of 40 carefully controlled sentences containing bisyllabic words with contrastive stress. Ten stuttering adults displayed significantly more stuttering on the word-initial syllables than on the subsequent (word-final) syllables, whereas stressed syllables were not stuttered significantly more than unstressed syllables. Participants displayed a greater tendency to stutter on word-onsets than stressed syllables within words. These findings are discussed with respect to potential relationships of stutter events to layers of metrical structure associated with speech production.
在一组40个经过精心控制的句子中，对包含具有对比重音的双音节词的选定单词，研究了音节重音、单词起始音和口吃之间的关系。十名口吃成年人在单词的起始音节上比在随后的（单词末尾）音节上表现出明显更多的口吃，而重读音节的口吃并不比非重读音节明显更多。参与者在单词起始音上比单词内的重读音节更倾向于口吃。就口吃事件与语音产生相关的韵律结构层次的潜在关系对这些发现进行了讨论。
