My speech therapist explained this by saying our brain was out of sync with our vocal tract so our brain is not necessary working faster or slower. That's why therapies like prolonged speech can help...

Language mimicry is not the same as stuttering. Also, I think there's a lack of conceptual clarity in many cases, where people talk about genetics and environment (the academical treatment: https://p...

I agree with @asardiwal on the neuroplasticity aspect bc language development is very much in that category for sculpting how you pronounce and deliver words. Some may say it’s genetic some may say it...

Current research shows that stuttering is both neurological and hereditary. In short, it's just how our brains are wired; there's a glitch between thinking the thought and saying the thought, and then...

No, stuttering isn't copied either - it's not contagious. Neuroplasticity is not relevant here. You have to be careful that you don't think in terms of advanced concepts, that you don't apply properl...

No, not at all. This might be a memory overview that you've established thinking back, but it's not how stutter research would present it. We don't stutter just because a fumble happened at one poin...

some articles argued that elon's brain works faster than his mouth that''s why it appears that he has a stutter. he can't just think of the proper words to say afaik? but who knows. he may have one id...

Some references: Hypothesis of Dopamine and Stuttering: [https://www.stutteringhelp.org/medical-aspects-stuttering](https://www.stutteringhelp.org/medical-aspects-stuttering)(even more references ...

Well... let's untangle this a bit: I say it's not common for stutter to be _determined_ in such a strict way, if that is in fact what's going on. And even if dopamine _can_ be released by screen use...

Watching TV, playing video games, social media, can release the neurotransmitter dopamine. If we go with the theory that people who stutter have an excess of dopamine then YES, looking at screens for...

Well, I think you've got it the wrong way around. Put it like this: You don't stutter because you think of stutter - you think of stutter because you're in a situation involving stuttering. Also, wh...

Well... we don't know exactly how stutter works yet, but we do know some things that we can say about it. It's definitely not the case that stuttering exists because people are pressured into speakin...

Those neurochemical things are typically talked about in too superficial ways, and to talk about them in more satisfactory ways, we'd be talking about a lot more than what people typically talk about....

Yeah, I know some had to have happened. Unfortunately I have no health insurance or I would. Someone I described this to, who has a background in it says it was probably a small stroke. I do have risk...

Go get yourself checked out. One doesn’t just start stuttering without some neurological event as the cause....

Thanks. I don't know anything about your educational background, so I won't dive in too deep into the thoeretical issues here, but your paper will need to address the following point if you, like so ...

Thank you for your question! We are basing this inventory off of data that was collected from a de-identified electronic health record of disorders that co-occurred frequently in individuals who also ...

He sounds good to me, but I am in no position to diagnose since there can be more than the dysfluencies in his speech. Check out the Iceberg Analogy of Stuttering: [http://istuttersowhat.com/the-i...

Yeah do not worry, I am aware of the scams out there. I just know a bit of neuroscience and was wondering a few things, that is the reason of this post. So you were not able to do it?...

I am trying to find an effective exercise to decrease stuttering based on how the hemispheres activate when we stutter I am expecting a difference compared with fluent people, either for better or fo...
