| Abstract | Electroglottographic (EGG) and acoustic waveforms of the first few glottal pulses of voicing were monitored and voice onset time measured during an adaptation task performed by 8 21-48 yr old stutterers and 8 20-45 yr old nonstutterers. Results show that the fluent utterances of stutterers resembled those of controls. However, after dysfluencies, the EGG signal increased gradually, lending physiological support to the technique of easy onset of voicing. EGG waveforms also served to help differentiate mild from severe stutterers. Idiosyncratic ritualized laryngeal behavior, sometimes including physiological tremor, was evident in the EGG record. |
