Relationships Between Psychological Distress and Affective, Behavioral, and Cognitive Experiences of Stuttering
CONCLUSIONS: Levels of PD in PWS approximate those of the general community, highlighting the existence of psychologically distressed subgroups of PWS. Speech situation-specific anxiety had the strongest relationship to PD, followed closely by one's report of situation-specific speech disruption. To a lesser but still significant extent, PWS' frequency to which they engage in various avoidance/escape behaviors, as well as their communication attitude, predicted levels of psychopathology. These data inform diagnostic and clinical decision making, drawing attention to factors that should be attended to in treatment.PMID:3795...

Prevalence, comorbidities, and profiles of neurodevelopmental disorders according to the DSM-5-TR in children aged 6  years old in a European region
ConclusionIn disadvantaged contexts, there was a higher prevalence of NDDs and comorbidities, unless the disorder was extreme, in which case only the NDD manifestations were presented. A significant proportion of the sample had not been previously diagnosed (88.6%); therefore, early detection programs are recommended to identify warning signs and develop policies that help and support the most disadvantaged sectors of the population.

Unique Patterns of Bilingual Speech: Factors Affecting Disfluency Rates in Russian-Hebrew Bilingual Children
CONCLUSIONS: Bilingual disfluency criteria are needed, since based on the existing monolingual criteria, some children might be erroneously assessed as children who stutter, thus leading to overdiagnosis. The results support the claim that proficiency is an important factor in the production of disfluencies.PMID:37931116 | DOI:10.1044/2023_JSLHR-23-00048 (Source: Journal of speech, language, and hearing research : JSLHR)

Delphi Survey of Items for the Test of Stuttering Screening in Children (TSSC)
CONCLUSION: The developed screening tool could help practicing clinicians quickly identify stuttering in school-going populations. This would enable early identification and build up the statistical data to estimate the prevalence of stuttering among the school-going population. Further studies examining the psychometric properties of the developed test are in progress.PMID:37916211 | PMC:PMC10487328 | DOI:10.2174/17450179-v19-230615-2022-27 (Source: Clinical Practice and Epidemiology in Mental Health)
