Abstract
The article discusses a study designed to determine how effective are behavioural, cognitive, and related approaches to stuttering therapy. The study was designed as a systematic review with trial-quality assessment. Included studies involved treatment of persistent developmental stuttering in any age group. Studies included had to focus on the efficacy, effectiveness, or outcomes of nonpharmacological interventions.
