Abstract:
The possibility studied of considering simultaneously the role of neuro-physiopathological and psychopathological factors in the genesis of stammering. After recalling the psychoanalytic theory behind this problem and giving a clinical example, the different modes of evolution that stammering can have on the psychic apparatus were examined and the secondary economic function of this symptom, especially in relation to repression is emphasized.
