Abstract
ABSTRACT Purpose: to describe intervention methodologies implemented in recent years in stuttering children. Methods: a search was performed for empirical articles on interventions in stuttering children aged 2.5 to 7 years. The search was carried out in Embase, WOS, Pubmed, and Scopus, considering articles published between January 2014 and June 2020. Literature Review: 11 articles were selected out of the 1,099 retrieved. Different approaches were observed, of which the Lidcombe program showed the most evidence. Most studies were conducted on English-speaking children and participants were assessed regarding linguistic and non-linguistic aspects. All studies considered parental involvement in the intervention. No investigation took measurements for more than 24 months. Individual interventions predominated. Conclusion: good therapeutic results were found in all reviewed interventions. Research comparing two types of treatments did not find one to be superior to the other.
