Cluttering is
a communication disorder that affects one’s ability to convey
messages to others in a clear and/or concise manner. Individuals
with cluttered speech often report that their listeners have difficulty
understanding them, and attribute this to factors such as their
rate of speech, the clarity of their speech, and/or the organization
or relevance of their message. Some who clutter have said they’ve
often received such feedback as, “Slow down!”, “Don’t
mumble” or “Where did that comment come from?”Information
