I am a graduate student at Appalachian State University. I found your article about stuttering and sleep very interesting. You mentioned that in your clinical experience you found that after observations, your clients noted that their stuttering became worse if the had slept poorly. When these times occurred, was it more the reduced quantity of hours slept, or did it occur after a night of interrupted cycles and poor overall quality of the sleep? Also, you mentioned how children are especially susceptible to problems resulting from a lack of sleep due to their growing brains, but were your findings with adults similar as far as stuttering and sleep are concerned? Thank you! Great article!
