episodic variation (cyclical variation)

( cyclical variation )
The tendency for young children to fluctuate through cycles or periods of developmental disfluency, followed by a return to normal fluency and then back into disfluency again. When the fluctuations increase in the direction of disfluency, this is a potential "danger sign."
