Description
Summary:The Structure of Stuttering: A Psycholinguistic Analysis develops an account of the nature of stuttering that is derived from careful analysis of relevant research on language elements involved in stuttering; pertinent linguistic, neurolinguistic, and psycholinguistic research; and an extensive comparative study of language function in stuttering. The author offers an entirely novel explanation of the nature of stuttering through an interrelated analysis of these lines of evidence. Moreover, the explanation reveals avenues through which insight into the dimensions of this unique disorder can contribute to an understanding of the nature of normal language expression.
