I am overwhelmed and I've been getting a lot of fluency evaluations. Can anyone offer time management tips when scoring the Stuttering Severity Instrument, 4th Edition? Specifically the speech samples... thank you!

Hi! What are the different approaches for stuttering? For instance, what's the difference between "stutter more fluently" and fluency shaping?

We speak about race-related microaggressions a lot. But we often leave out the experiences of people with speech and language disorders. Check out this article titled, "Microaggressions and the Adult Learning Experience" (Coalson & colleagues, 2022): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9035219/

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!

Here is your reminder that Stuttering is a culture! SLPs should do our part to continue to educate ourselves/each other on how we can best CELEBRATE People Who Stutter and their families.

Voice pathology refers to a problem arising from abnormal conditions, such as dysphonia, paralysis, cysts, and even cancer, that cause abnormal vibrations in the vocal cords (or vocal folds). In this context, voice pathology detection (VPD) has received much attention as a non-invasive way to automatically detect voice problems. Click the link to read more.
