Some individuals develop speech habits to escape or avoid moments of overt stuttering, such as changing words or using interjections (e.g., um, uh), and they may become so skilled at hiding stuttering that their speech appears to be fluent (covert stuttering; B. Murphy et al., 2007). (2018). Van Borsel, J., Maes, E., & Foulon, S. (2001). Logos, 3, 8295. Journal of Fluency Disorders, 30(1), 122.

Cultural diversity should also be considered in the discussion of stuttering, as it can have an impact on assessment and treatment of stuttering. Therefore, as with school-age children and adolescents, the purpose of the assessment for adults typically is not to diagnose stuttering. Yaruss, J. S., & Reardon-Reeves, N. (2017). Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups 4:4 (615-623) 15 Aug 2019. Acceptance; Constantino et al., 2017. When speakers are able to participate in decisions about treatment goals and select goals they consider important, they may be more motivated to take part in therapy (Finn, 2003; Snsterud et al., 2019). One example of an approach that incorporates cognitive restructuring is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT; Beilby & Brynes, 2012; Beilby et al., 2012a; Palasik & Hannan, 2013). American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 27(3S), 11111123. Typical adolescent experiences of emotional reactivity, resistance to authority, and social awkwardness may be exacerbated in adolescents who also experience stuttering (Daly et al., 1995; Zebrowski, 2002). For example, individuals who clutter may not be aware of communication breakdowns and, therefore, do not attempt to repair them. Wolk, L., Edwards, M. L., & Conture, E. G. (1993). School-based SLPs and IEP teams should resist pressure to minimize the impact of stuttering on educational achievement for the purpose of disqualifying students from speech-language pathology services. The neurological underpinnings of cluttering: Some initial findings. American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 26(4), 11051119. Apply Now. Traditional stuttering modification strategies (Manning & DiLollo, 2018) include the following: These strategies require an individual to identify a moment of disfluency before, during, or after it occurs and to make adjustments to reduce tension and struggle. See ASHAs Practice Portal page on Telepractice. Language intervention from a bilingual mindset.

Other treatment approaches described below also may be incorporated as part of a comprehensive treatment approach. ), Stuttering and related disorders of fluency (pp. See What To Ask When Evaluating Any Procedure, Product, or Program. The goal of Avoidance Reduction Therapy for Stuttering is to decrease fear of stuttering that leads to struggle. Disfluencies are not directly targeted; however, the frequency and intensity of disfluencies decrease as struggle is reduced. Healey, E. C., Reid, R., & Donaher, J. Gupta, S., Yashodharakumar, G.

Determination of individual strengths and coping strategies. Genetic bases of stuttering: The state of the art, 2011. Developing culturally and linguistically relevant intervention plans focused on helping the individual achieve more fluent speech and self-acceptance of disfluency, providing treatment, documenting progress, and determining appropriate dismissal criteria. Cooper, E. B. https://doi.org/10.1044/persp1.SIG4.55, Byrd, C. T., Croft, R., Gkalitsiou, Z., & Hampton, E. (2017). Preus, A. Other speech or language concerns are also present. A recent U.S. study estimated that approximately 2% of children ages 317 years stutter (Zablotsky et al., 2019). Treatment approaches for adults should take into consideration career and workplace factors. Stuttering severity may vary dramatically by speaking situation. Enlisting the help of a person familiar with the language and rating fluency in short speech intervals also may help to accurately and reliably judge unambiguous stuttering (Shenker, 2011). In D.

Estimates have reported the male-to-female ratio of individuals who stutter to be as large as 4:1; however, more recent studies in preschool children suggest that a younger age of onset has smaller ratios in gender differences (Yairi & Ambrose, 2013). Such individuals may benefit from treatment strategies that focus on improving speech efficiency by reducing word avoidance and increasing spontaneity in communication. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jfludis.2016.10.002, Blumgart, E., Tran, Y., & Craig, A. American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, 27(2), 721736. However, these compensations may compound the negative experience of stuttering over time. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0094-730X(97)00008-9, Floyd, J., Zebrowski, P. M., & Flamme, G. A. Adolescents also may be particularly susceptible to peer pressure and bullying at this time. Manning, W. H., & Quesal, R. W. (2016). Daly, D. A., Simon, C. A., & Burnett-Stolnack, M. (1995). For example, when selecting reading passages, it may be difficult to determine the linguistic complexity of a text in a language unfamiliar to the clinician. Stuttering typically has its origins in childhood. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jfludis.2008.01.001. reducing secondary behaviors and minimizing avoidances. The purpose of CBT is to modify current negative thoughts, emotions, and/or behaviors and replace them with positive ones through identification of thought patterns and challenging cognitive distortions in real time.

Genetic approaches to understanding the causes of stuttering. The clinician (a) considers the degree to which the individuals disfluent behaviors and overall communication are influenced by a coexisting disorder (e.g., other speech or language disorders, Down syndrome, autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder) and (b) determines how treatment might be adjusted accordingly. ), The Cambridge handbook of communication disorders (pp. Assessing bilingual children: Are their disfluencies indicative of stuttering or the by-product of navigating two languages?

For school-age children and adolescents, initiation of treatment depends, in large part, on their motivation, which, in turn, is dependent on factors such as their perceived needs, the degree of adverse impact they experience, and their previous treatment experiences.

Differentiating between typical disfluencies and stuttering (i.e., ambiguous and unambiguous moments of stuttering) is a critical piece of assessment, particularly for preschool children (see ASHAs resource on characteristics of typical disfluency and stuttering). Operant approaches operate within a framework of stuttering as a learned behavior (for a discussion, see Conture, 2001; de Sonneville-Koedoot et al., 2015, p. 334; Onslow & Yaruss, 2007).

SLPs may want to relate personal experiences when asking clients to share such vulnerable information. As children who stutter get older, they may become adept at word and situational avoidances that result in a low frequency of overt stuttering. Additionally, there is no documented recovery from cluttering; therefore, duration since onset does not seem to apply as a risk factor. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0094-730X(97)00009-0, Yaruss, J. S.

K. (2002). Some examples of these are to openly discuss experiences with stuttering (from the client and the clinician with pseudostuttering or as described by previous clients who stutter) and model pseudostuttering and techniques, attitudes, and beliefs across speaking situations (Manning & Quesal, 2016; Watson, 1988). https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jfludis.2015.08.001, Han, T.-U., Park, J., Domingues, C.

Some people who clutter tend to decrease volume at the ends of sentences or phrases and, therefore, can benefit from learning to keep a steady volume throughout their utterances. BOBapp What are typical vs. atypical disfluencies in speech? Consistent with a person- and family-centered approach to stuttering treatment, the SLP. The speakers measured speech rate is not always greater than average, but the listener perceives it as rapid.

Fluency disorders do not necessarily affect test scores or subject grades. Many clinicians use an integration of approaches to achieve optimal outcomes. Cambridge University Press. In addition to stuttering-like disfluencies and other typical disfluencies, the children with ASD also produced atypical disfluencies, which usually are not observed in children with typically developing speech or developmental stuttering.
