This was a very interesting article. Being from the United States, it's easy to get stuck in a "bubble" and forget that stuttering is a universal problem. It is always intriguing to see how other cultures outside of the United States perceive stuttering. I liked that you included personal experiences from some students in Kuwait. It's always a nice touch when you are able to put a face with the numbers on the charts and graphs. With the way that stutterers are often treated, it's not surprising that some people still consider stuttering to be a psychological problem, because people who stutter can so easily develop emotional issues because of being treated poorly. Thank you for sharing your study!
