Thanks Abby for your comments on my paper. Double deficit: persons with cluttering do not only suffer from the not fully automatised language production (first deficit), but, because attention capacity is needed so much for language production no attention capacity is left to monitor speech. The fact that the PWC does not have the capability to monitor his or her speech during conversation is an extra difficulty (double deficit) PWC can identify disfluencies or unitelligibility when listening to recorded speech, but not in running speech.
