TLDR
Most of the risk for stuttering onset is over by age 5, earlier than has been previously thought, with a male-to-female ratio near onset smaller than what has been thought.

How Stuttering Develops: The Multifactorial Dynamic Pathways Theory

TL;DR: The multifactorial dynamic pathways theory motivates experimental and clinical work to determine the specific factors that contribute to each child's pathway to the diagnosis of stuttering and those most likely to promote recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex and gender in psychopathology: DSM-5 and beyond

TL;DR: The importance of sex and gender in psychopathology research is discussed, terminology used when examining these constructs is reviewed, and multiple explanations for differential prevalence rates are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

White matter neuroanatomical differences in young children who stutter

TL;DR: The white matter changes point to possible structural connectivity deficits in children who stutter, in interrelated neural circuits that enable skilled movement control through efficient sensorimotor integration and timing of movements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct versus Indirect Treatment for Preschool Children who Stutter: The RESTART Randomized Trial

TL;DR: Results imply that at 18 months post treatment onset, both treatments are roughly equal in treating developmental stuttering in ways that surpass expectations of natural recovery, and follow-up data are needed to confirm these findings.

Childhood stuttering: Incidence and development

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results of a pilot study on the incidence and development of early childhood stuttering conducted on the Danish island of Bornholm, where the entire population of children born within a 2-year span was surveyed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Longitudinal Study of Stuttering in Children: A Preliminary Report.

TL;DR: There were indications that group differences between chronic and recovering stutterers become distinct by approximately 20 months post-onset, and individual subjects' data showed considerable variability in the longitudinal development of disfluency but most subjects followed the patterns of the group means.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genetic basis of persistence and recovery in stuttering.

TL;DR: It was found that recovery or persistence is indeed transmitted, and further, that recovery does not appear to be a genetically milder form of stuttering, nor do the two types of stuttered seem to be genetically independent disorders.

Mutations in the lysosomal enzyme-targeting pathway and persistent stuttering.

TL;DR: Susceptibility to nonsyndromic stuttering is associated with variations in genes governing lysosomal metabolism.
