Exogenously triggered response inhibition in developmental stuttering
ConclusionsOur findings seem to indicate that previous questionnaire-based findings (Eggers, De Nil, & Van den Bergh, 2010) of a decreased efficiency of response inhibition cannot be generalized to all types of response inhibition. (Source: Journal of Fluency Disorders)

Children who stutter at 3 years of age: A community-based study
ConclusionThe proportion of three-year-old children who stutter and fluency status 6 months later are reported for a large cohort of Japanese children in Hokkaido. Language skills at 1;6 year may potentially be a factor in natural recovery or persistence; because of limitations in our study design, this assumption requires additional study. This is the first preliminary study to determine the proportion of three-year-old children who stutter in a Japanese community. (Source: Journal of Fluency Disorders)

Comparison of adults who stutter with and without social anxiety disorder
ConclusionSignificant differences in speech and psychological variables between groups suggest that, despite not demonstrating more severe stuttering, socially anxious adults who stutter demonstrate more psychological difficulties and have a more negative view of their speech. The present findings suggest that the demographic status of adults who stutter is not worse for those with social anxiety disorder. These findings pertain to a clinical sample, and cannot be generalized to the wider population of adults who stutter from the general community. Further research is needed to understand the longer-term impact of social a...

Cortical associates of emotional reactivity and regulation in childhood stuttering
ConclusionsFindings provide further empirical support for the notion that emotional processes are associated with childhood stuttering, and that CWS’s inherent temperamental proclivities need to be taken into account when empirically studying or theorizing about this association.

Mood state sub-types in adults who stutter: A prospective study

Self-stigma and its associations with stress, physical health, and health care satisfaction in adults who stutter
ConclusionBecause adults who stutter with higher levels of self-stigma are at risk for decreased physical health through increased stress, and lower satisfaction with their health care experiences as a result of stuttering, it is important for professionals to assess and manage self-stigma in clients who stutter. Self-stigma has implications for not only psychological well-being, but stress, physical health, and health care satisfaction as well. (Source: Journal of Fluency Disorders)

Speech rate adjustment of adults during conversation
ConclusionResults suggest that speech rate convergence is a non-linear phenomenon, and may be affected by various linguistic as well as communicational factors. From a clinical perspective, the results support the use of the modeling strategy in speech therapy, as a means to facilitate a reduction in clients' speech rate.
