The purpose of this article is to review descriptive and experimental studies of the conversational turn-management timing behaviors used by children who stutter and their parents. Research findings support the notion that, in general, the temporal aspects of conversations between children who stutter and their parents do not differ significantly from those observed in parent-nonstuttering child conversational dyads; however, for some children who stutter, parental manipulation of factors such as speech rate and response-time latency (RTL) may enhance the child's development of speech fluency. Further, it is apparent that factors such as the age and general speech and language abilities of the child, the severity of the stuttering problem, and the type(s) of disfluencies the child most frequently produces, as well as the difference between the child's and parent's speaking rate, turntaking rate, and so forth, need to be carefully considered when deciding whether to use such therapeutic strategies.
