Thanks for the clarification Jack. I have found that slightly prolonged speech is probably the technique that has worked best within a fluency shaping paradigm. Pull-outs (accomplished in different forms) seem to have the longest lasting results in stuttering modification, therefore, I would say the most successful. There was no official tally taken here, just pulling back from lots of memories. Thanks for the original question and the clarification. Of course, I still must add again that giving the client what they (the PWS) need most to accomplish THEIR goals is the best advice I can give any clinicians who may read this. The best advice I can give a PWS who is seking services from an SLP is to let them know what your expectations are. Talk it over and come to mutually agreed upon goals. John Tetnowski
