    Hi yall! I'll be popping into Q&A groups to help Praxis Preppers get to their passing score! This is also good for practicing SLPs who need a little brush up on their skills ;)

    Here's today's question:

    b) Developmental stuttering is often seen in adults, while acquired stuttering is common in children.
    c) Developmental stuttering typically starts in childhood, while acquired stuttering can result from a head injury.
    d) Developmental stuttering results from trauma, while acquired stuttering is genetic.

    Hello! Do you have any resources for fluency disorders and intervention?

    I've noticed that fluency is an area that is not covered enough in undergrad and grad programs. In undergrad, we had 1 course but none in grad school. Some of my peers in grad school have mentioned not having a fluency class in their speech programs. I am becoming more and more familiar with working with students/clients with fluency difficulties but there's still more to know regarding assessment and intervention! We appreciate any advice or resources you may have!
