The speech-language pathologist's role in stuttering self-help groups.

This article reviews definitions of self-help and support groups, describes some basic views that speech-language pathologists and self-help groups have of each other, then comments on ways in which professionals are relating to self-help groups. These comments are based on answers to a questionnaire distributed to a sample of speech-language pathologists who interact with self-help groups. It is recommended that speech-language pathologists should relate to the self-help movement in stuttering as consultants.

Limiting restraint use for behavior control: the brain injury rehabilitation unit as a model.

Physical or pharmacologic restraints are often used to control the behavior of patients who are agitated or who demonstrate behavior that is inappropriate or potentially dangerous. Centers that specialize in traumatic brain injury rehabilitation treat many patients who manifest agitated behavior. This article reviews behavior management within a brain injury rehabilitation setting and describes less restrictive restraint systems. A case study of the management of an agitated patient with traumatic brain injury is presented. Possible future trends in the use of restraint systems are discussed.

Stutterers' and nonstutterers' voice fundamental frequency changes in response to auditory stimuli.

An acoustic analysis of certain aspects of voice fundamental frequency (Fo) in response to auditory clicks may provide a tool for studying short-latency auditory-laryngeal reflexes in humans (Sapir, McClean, & Larson, 1983). The purpose of this investigation was to compare 18 adult male stutterers' and 19 adult male nonstutterers' auditory-laryngeal reflexes. Subjects sustained phonation at constant pitch and intensity levels while receiving bilateral auditory click stimuli. Fo signal averages were generated and measured. Data analyses indicated that there were no differences between stutterers and nonstutterers with respect to the frequency of reflex occurrence. Also, there were no significant group differences with respect to the mean reflex temporal measures or the variability of the reflex temporal measures.
