Would you say FEAR is the final link in the stutter cycle? If we distinguish the factors involved in stuttering onset (such as predispositions and risk factors), from those that prevent stuttering remission. Then. We’re essentially looking at two distinct stutter cycles. Now. in this second cycle where stuttering remission is prevented.. do you think fear might be the final link? Or is it more of an underlying layer, but not the deepest one? A great question, indeed.
