Patterns and frequency of stuttering differ across individuals and within the same speaker over time and in response to changing contexts such as task, setting, or conversational partner.
“Patterns and frequency of stuttering differ not only across individuals but also within the same speaker over time and in response to changing contexts, such as task, setting, or conversational partner [100, 109].”

The measurement of stuttering has been a contested issue in SLP due to its variability and the wide range of associated behaviors.
“Yet, the measurement of stuttering has been a contested issue in SLP due to its variability and the wide range of associated behaviors [109].”

Our guidelines differ from SLP frameworks developed to measure fluency and stuttering severity, as well as from earlier labeling frameworks designed primarily to detect stuttering events.
“Our guidelines differ from SLP frameworks developed to measure fluency and stuttering severity [83, 109], as well as from earlier labeling frameworks designed primarily to detect stuttering events [58].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
