TalkBank FluencyBank

FluencyBank is a shared database for the study of fluency development. Participants include typically-developing monolingual and bilingual children, children and adults who stutter (C/AWS) or who clutter (C/AWC), and second language learners.

Access to the research data in FluencyBank is password protected and restricted to members of the FluencyBank consortium group. Data in the Teaching section of the FluencyBank site is open access and does NOT require membership or a password.

Researchers and clinicians studying fluency who are interested in joining the consortium should read the Ground Rules and then send email to nratner@umd.edu with contact information and affiliation.
Please include a brief statement about how you envision using the data in your research. Students interested in using the data should ask their faculty advisors to join as members. We can also be reached by phone at 301-405-4217.

For 2016-2021 FluencyBank was supported by NIH NIDCD grant R01-DC015494 to Brian MacWhinney (CMU) and Nan Bernstein Ratner (UMD).

This CLARIN interview with Nan Bernstein Ratner describes the overall motivation for FluencyBank and its functionality.

If you stutter or clutter and would like to help our research by voluntarily contributing an anonymous speech sample, please consult these contribution guidelines.

We will conduct a workshop on "How to use FluencyBank resources in your clinical work, teaching and research" at the 13th Oxford Dysfluency Conference and you can register for that at this link.


FluencyBank is supported by NIDCD grant 1R01DC015494 and NSF-SBE Grant SMA-1539010. PIs are Nan Bernstein Ratner (University of Maryland) and Brian MacWhinney (Carnegie Mellon University) .
