Hello Andreas,

Your welcome !

I call fluency shaping procedures "micro-managing the speech process". Also, I would call Van Riper's pre-block corrections micro-management. How will you apply the expression ?

To me, the Thinker's role in speech is to formulate the contents of speech. After that, it's the Doer's task to make it happen.

Another book that impressed me was "Speaking" by Willem Levelt. He's a psycholinguist researching how we put speech together.

regards, Jonathan
