Your paper was very interesting. I can see how perfectionism could worsen the perception of a stutter or come about due to stuttering. In your study, you stated that many participants reported less anxiety about stuttering after receiving CBT. This decrease in anxiety could result in less tension and increase in fluency. I was wondering if any of the participants reported an increase in fluency in addition to the decrease of anxiety.
