Document Summary
Monster study: went to local orphanages and used them as subjects and they were treated by speech pathologists as if they have poor talking behaviors. We learned that you can take someone that is developing normally and end up developing a stutter for them. Speech that is smooth, effortless, and automatic. A speech that is none of these, is a fluency disorder. Disfluencies don"t always detract from communicative quality. You can have terrible communicative performance and still get your message across. Speech with an unusually high rate of disfluencies that disrupts the flow of communication. More than 3 slds stuttering like disfluencies/100 words. Speech that hinders social communication or educational/occupational performance. Monosyllabic whole-word repetitions: if the word is one syllable long and they repeat it more than once. Part word repetitions: if they get stuck on the first part of the word and repeat it multiple times.
