PSYCHODRAMATICAbstract
One of the most frequently observed speech pathologies in the world is stuttering, and considerable efforts have been made to determine its etiology or etiologies, as well as to develop treatment programs effective with stutterers.
Stuttering has been defined by Johnson as an anticipatory, apprehensive, hypertonic, avoidance reaction, "... stuttering is what a speaker does when he (1) expects stuttering to occur, (2) dreads it, and (3) becomes tense in anticipation of it, and in ( 4) trying to avoid it. What he does in trying to avoid stuttering amounts to a complete or partial stopping of speech." Johnson, 1955:217).
