I would consider the display of tension. While many stutterers have developed physical mechanisms to help them move through a block or a repetition, many stutterers experience a physical tightening and tension in their upper body. Look for actions that look natural, but are subtle coping mechanisms, such as speaking with your hands, looking away, closing eyes.
