Handbook

Welcome to the handbook! This introduction to some of the key themes in dysfluency studies is authored by stutterers and written for everyone, but especially for all those who speak with an abundance of repetitions, blurts, pauses, hesitations, and effort.

A special welcome to you! We call these speech patterns “dysfluency” and affirm them as a natural variation in human communication. More generally then, this handbook is for all people who want to learn new stories about dysfluency, stories that affirm dysfluent speech as valuable.
