I thought the articl was very interesting! I am only a second year in the communication disorders undergraduate program so the details behind stuttering are fairly new to me but your article made me excited to learn more about fluency and other communication disorders. I personally have some OCD tendencies and was just wondering what the difference between OCD and perfectionistic tendencies is? I had always thought there was a large overlap there. Also, I know someone who is very hard on himself and tends to use a lot of negative self talk, especially when it is school related (ex. tests- test anxiety) the CBT seems to be something that would be great for him as well. Do you know how much research has been done with that? - Are you continuing your research with PWS and the effects of CBT? Thanks so much for the great read!
