“…Neither in the pupils of the regular schools nor in those attending special schools stuttering prevalence was signifi cantly different in single birth children compared to twins, and the number of twins was not signifi cantly higher or lower in the stuttering pupils than in the nonstuttering pupils. Twin studies have also shown that the degree of concordance for stuttering tends to be higher in monozygotic twins than in dizygotic twins [14][15][16] . In the sample of twins containing at least one stutterer in the present study, two reportedly monozygotic pairs (one among the pupils of regular schools and one among the pupils of special schools) were discordant, and of three reportedly dizygotic pairs (all from regular schools), one was concordant and two were discordant.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate stuttering prevalence in Flanders, the northern part of Belgium. Using questionnaires distributed among teachers, data were collected on 21,027 pupils from regular schools (age between 6 and 20 years) and 1,272 pupils attending special education (age between 6 and 15 years). The overall prevalence in the regular school population was 0.58%. It was 2.28% in the special school population. In agreement with past studies, stuttering prevalence was higher in males than in females, and higher in pupils attending special schools than in pupils from regular schools. The tendency for stuttering prevalence to decrease with increasing age was confirmed too, but not in the pupils of special schools. Additionally, the pupils of regular schools showed a pattern that was contrary to the general belief that the male-to-female ratio in stuttering prevalence increases with age. Results further indicate that the commonly cited stuttering prevalence figure of 1% is a generalization that requires interpretation.

“…The words consisted of a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 8 syllables. Loan words were chosen because PWC have particular problems with longer words with complex syllable structures [27] . Loan words were understood as words of foreign origin that were part of the German lexicon.…”

In order to investigate the articulatory processes of the hasty and mumbled speech in cluttering, the kinematic variability was analysed by means of electromagnetic midsagittal articulography. In contrast to persons with stuttering, those with cluttering improve their intelligibility by concentrating on their speech task. Variability has always been an important criterion in comparable studies of stuttering and is discussed in terms of the stability of the speech motor system. The aim of the current study was to analyse the spatial and temporal variability in the speech of three persons with cluttering (PWC) and three control speakers. All participants were native speakers of German. The speech material consisted of repetitive CV syllables and loan words such as ‘emotionalisieren’, because PWC have the severest problems with long words with a complex syllable structure. The results showed a significantly higher coefficient of variation for PWC in loan word production, both in the temporal and in the spatial domain, whereas the means of displacements and durations did not differ between groups. These findings were discussed in terms of the effects of the linguistic complexity, since for the syllable repetition task, no significant differences between PWC and controls were found.

“…A la lumière de nombreuses statistiques [14] dans 40-60% ce trouble constitue une charge hérédo-familiale manifestée par une générale disposition maladive, neuropathique et familiale. Szondi [21] vint à la conclusion qu'on remarque chez les malades bègues les troubles vasculaires à la base génétique.…”
