Study subjects asked
to «talk» their way through mazes used more verbal fillers when confronted with mazes that could be navigated using multiple routes.33 Conversely, mazes with a single path (and fewer choices) produced fewer fillers.34 But the maze study produced another interesting result: When study subjects were told they could use only four words
to talk their way through the maze (
left, right, up, down), they began
to use more verbal fillers, even when describing simple mazes.35
Researchers posited that the «lexical suppression» created by limiting speakers
to four words triggered a stopping and starting of the speech apparatus that prevented speakers from developing a normal speech rhythm.36 Thus, while verbal fillers are a mark of task complexity, they also appear where, «for some
other reason, the flow of speech is disrupted.»
