Preliminary Evidence That Growth in Productive Language Differentiates Childhood Stuttering Persistence and Recovery.
TL;DR: Children who had steeper productive syntactic growth, but not vocabulary diversity growth, were more likely to recover by study end, and this effect held after controlling for initial language ability at study onset as well as demographic covariates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sympathetic arousal as a marker of chronicity in childhood stuttering.
TL;DR: Children with persisting stuttering exhibited higher sympathetic arousal during the stressful speaking task than children whose stuttering recovered, suggesting that sympathetic activity may be an early marker of heightened risk for chronic stuttering.

Trait related sensorimotor deficits in people who stutter: An EEG investigation of μ rhythm dynamics during spontaneous fluency.
TL;DR: It is suggested that weak forward modeling and evaluation of sensory feedback across the time course of speech production characterizes the trait related sensorimotor impairment in PWS and may predispose the speech of PWS to breakdown.
Atypical electrical brain activity related to attention and inhibitory control in children who stutter
TL;DR: The view of stuttering as part of an extensive brain dysfunction involving also attentional and inhibitory networks is supported, which is likely related to problems in attentional gating.

Early Childhood Stuttering I
TL;DR: The purpose of the investigation reported herein is to study the pathognomonic course of stuttering during its first several years in early childhood with special reference to the occurrence of persistent and spontaneously recovered forms of the disorder.
