Hi Ms. Eckardt, As a person just starting out in my SLP education, I really appreciate the insight you have shared. In the beginning of your paper, you mention that "if I practiced more, I would stutter less" is a view commonly expressed by people who stutter. Do you think it is common for SLPs to hold that view- either consciously or subconsciously? Do you think it is common in practice for an SLP to overlook "the rest of the iceberg" in focusing on the "mechanics of talking"?
