Abstract

The use of positive reinforcement for 30-second intervals of speech fluency resulted in a marked decrease in the number of disfluencies demonstrated by two third-grade male stutterers. The program was accomplished in a public school setting during short sessions, with a minimum of equipment. A follow-up session one month after the study, as well as subjective reports of parents and teachers, indicated maintenance of fluency at better than base-rate levels.
