Hi Rosalee. Thanks for your reply. Let's assume the trial is not flawed (which I dispute). Then 11 out of 15 kids recover which is 73.3% (consistent with natural recovery), and 4 out of 15 have reduced stuttering (consistent with a psychosocial adaptation due to behavioural therapy). The follow-up study of the Lidcombe RCT has shown similar effects, again assuming it's not flawed. ---- That's very different to your statement "eliminate stuttering". And on your website "stuttering can be maintained at near zero following treatment", "eliminating the progression of stuttering", and "fluency being maintained for periods up to 4 years." ---- Are you standing by these statements? Would it not be appropriate to modify them to what you have wrote now.
