What are alternative words for fight-flight-freeze response? (that precede stuttering like disfluencies) I give an example: (A) I don't stutter with my mother, but I significantly stutter with my father. (B) The next week it's the opposite: I don't stutter with my father but do significantly stutter with my mother. \~\~ Explanation: In both situations, I do not feel any fear, pressure, anticipation or other stimuli. Yet, I significantly stutter when changing environments/situations. From a neurological perspective: *"It's completely random, unpredictable and it's neurological"* (in my opinion, an outdated viewpoint) From a fight-flight-freeze perspective: *"After the subconscious mind interprets different stimuli, and treats them differently, stuttering might occur*" (I think this is likely a more valid viewpoint) \~\~ **Conclusion**: So this is likely relevant to make progress towards STUTTERING REMISSION. If stuttering is preceded by a fight-flight-freeze respone. Then, what are alternative words for *fight-flight-freeze response*? Alternative terminologies: * Fight flight freeze response (which is a nervous system response or parasympathetic arousal) * Panic response (**not to be confused with** panic feelings or a panic attack e.g., breathing problems, tension etc) * Approach-avoidance conflict (which signals a cognitive conflict between stimulus expectation & goal/intention of the behavior) * Cognitive conflict (idem) * Discriminative stimulus (which signals whether a response will be reinforced) * Evaluated error (which signals whether a conditioned response will be triggered, in response to a stimulus that is interpreted as an error)
