Hello, I really enjoyed reading your paper, it was very inforamtive. I recently attended and observed an NSA meeting and the members there noted that once they stopped trying to hide their stuttering their disfluencies lessened. Do you think that this shows stuttering can be greatly attributed to anxiety? Also, have you ever used purposeful stuttering in therapy as a way of giving the client control over their stutter to diminish the loss of control and hopefull reduce post traumatic stress instances?
