Treatment Decisions for Young Children Who Stutter

Stammering in adults with mental handicaps: A PILOT STUDY

A pilot study was undertaken to establish the prevalence of stammering in adults with mental handicaps, as identified by their carers. Possible differences between those attending adult training centres and those living in hospital were noted. It was found that the prevalence of speech problems, especially stammering, was significantly higher in both groups than would be expected in the “normal” population.

Prevalence of speech problems in junior and senior high schools.

The prevalence of speech problems in a junior and senior high-school population was studied. Speech problems were observed in 5.5% of 5054 junior and senior highschool students in the Tuscaloosa, Alabama, City Schools. Stuttering and articulatory disorders were the most frequently observed speech disorders, each having an incidence of 2.1%.
