Disfluency interruptions are events in spoken language where the smooth progression of speech is disrupted in association with disfluency phenomena such as hesitations, repetitions, or reformulations. They capture moments when a speaker’s turn-to-turn production is interrupted or rerouted by planning constraints, self-corrections, or external interruptions, and are often analyzed in discourse and production studies.
Within-speaker disfluency interruptions include hesitations (silent or filled pauses), repetitions (repeating segments of speech), and repairs
Prosodic and temporal features help characterize disfluency interruptions: the length of pauses around the disfluency, changes
Measurement and analysis typically rely on transcript annotations that mark disfluencies and interruptions, along with metrics
