Wowww, thank you for providing this real eye opener. When you say stutters have a completely different cognitive experience to non-stutters, how does the experience for a person who has gone through speech therapy and is largely fluent but sometimes stutter's in unfamiliar situations(eg nervousness or shock). Do they still avoid syntactically complex words? Does their error mapping system improve to levels of fluent speakers? And someone who improved their speech through John Harrison Redefining Stuttering approach (a CBT like approach to express yourself freely) or anyone who doesn't stutter anymore, are their brains close to that of a non-stutter or are other parts of the brain over-compensating to produce fluent like speech?
