Dr. Klein & Dr. Amber, Thank you for your interesting and informative article. I have 2 questions regarding your study and hope you can provide an answer. 1) Were there any specific tasks that the participant worked on to de-sensitize them from their stuttering? Outside of the group sessions and phone conversations, were they required to face a speaking situation which they normally would have avoided? 2) Had any of the participants had experience with support group sessions in the past prior to this study? For those who did not, do you think the support they received from others during these sessions played the biggest part in changing their mindset and ultimately leading to their acceptance of their stuttering and reducing their concerns/worries? Thank you! Regards, Lisa Chan
