I am a NYU graduate student in speech-language pathology and I found your article to be very interesting. In class we have discussed the role the temperament in persistence of stuttering. The use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address issues of perfectionism is really intriguing. Can this type of therapy help to influence the thoughts and attitudes of PWS in the long-term or would follow-up therapy be recommended? In your study CBT was used with adult stutterer's, do you think children would benefit from the therapy or would it be more beneficial to older individuals? Thank you for this interesting article!
