Video vs. Audio-taping Disfluency Count Samples

Question

Would you suggest someone videotape the samples when doing a disfluency count or would audio-taping be okay when noting ISP's (inaudible sound prolongations)?

Answer

It really depends on what you have access to.  If you have access to a video camera then I would suggest using it.  But, if you don't have access to a video camera going with the audio tape is fine.  Sometimes people will bring me audio tapes or videotapes to give some pointers or suggestions.  If you can get the videotape it is great; especially with preteens, teenagers or adults because then you can use those videotapes in your treatment session.
