“…It may be possible that diminished positive emotions and experiential avoidance are related to higher stuttering severity and lower satisfaction with communication among AWS. Karimi et al (2018) revealed that satisfaction with communication, stuttering severity, and emotional disturbances, including anxiety, are related to each other between individuals. However, it has been shown that stuttering and anxiety, potentially predicting satisfaction with communication, are variable depending on speaking contexts within individuals (Constantino et al, 2020;Constantino et al, 2016;Diehl et al, 2018).…”

“…In treatments of AWS, not only ameliorating stuttering severity but also improving quality of life or well-being is warranted. Stuttering is a speech disorder; therefore, quality of speaking communication seems to be one important aspect of quality of life or well-being in adults who stutter (AWS) (Karimi et al, 2018;Koedoot et al, 2011;Yaruss & Quesal, 2006).…”

“…It was shown that the daily satisfaction with communication is associated with self-rated stuttering severity and a wide range of psychosocial difficulties in AWS, including social anxiety and avoidance, trait anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thoughts and beliefs about stuttering. (Karimi et al, 2018). Daily satisfaction with communication is a potential overarching outcome measure in stuttering treatments (Karimi et al, 2018).…”

Purpose: Improving satisfaction with communication (SC) is one of the issues in treatments of adults who stutter (AWS). SC can be influenced by self-rated stuttering severity (SS), negative/positive emotions, and emotion regulations and they are variable in daily communications. The present study aimed to explore factors predicting SC in daily communications of AWS, considering their variabilities and speaking contexts.Method: Twenty-seven AWS were surveyed by trait questionnaires and then by experience sampling method (ESM) seven times per day for 2 weeks, reporting speaking contexts and subjective experiences, including SC, SS, negative/positive emotions, and emotion regulations. Intra- and inter- individual variabilities and relationships of the variables were investigated.Results: Speaking contexts were summarized by unofficial/official communications. SC, SS, and emotion regulations in unofficial communications were less variable and SC was more strongly related to trait questionnaires. Items of the ESM loaded on three latent factors in each communication type, including (1) negative emotion, (2) stuttering and associated reactions (including SS and stuttering-and anxiety-related behaviors and cognitions), and (3) positive emotion and attending to communication. SC was more strongly associated with (3) than (2) in unofficial communications while the opposite trend was found in official communications.Conclusions: SC, SS, and stuttering-and anxiety-related emotion regulations in unofficial communications are more trait-like. Not only negative emotion regulations but also positive emotion regulations should be treated to improve SC in AWS, considering speaking contexts.

Background: Having a stammer can have a significant effect on a child’s social, emotional and educational development. With approximately 66,000 children in the UK having a stammer, there is a need to establish an adequate evidence base to inform clinical practise. We describe a feasibility trial to explore the effectiveness of a new therapy programme for children aged 8-14: Palin Stammering Therapy for School Children (Palin STSC(8-14)). Preliminary data from the Michael Palin Centre, where the programme was developed, indicate that Palin STSC(8-14) is effective in reducing stammering frequency and impact for children, with beneficial effects for parents too. We will investigate the feasibility of the methods required for a definitive randomised control trial to investigate the application of this therapy by NHS speech and language therapists (SLTs), compared with ‘treatment as usual’ (TAU), beyond the specialist context in which it was developed.Methods: This is a two-arm feasibility cluster-randomised controlled trial of Palin STSC(8-14) with TAU control arm, and randomisation at the level of the SLT. Quantitative and qualitative data will be collected to examine: the recruitment and retention of therapists and families; the acceptability of the research processes and the therapeutic intervention; the appropriateness of the therapy outcome measures. Assessments will be completed by children and parents at baseline and six months later, including measures of: stammering severity; the impact of child’s stammering on both children and parents; child temperament, behaviour, peer relations, anxiety; quality of life; and, economic outcomes. There will also be a qualitative process evaluation, including interviews with parents, children, SLTs and SLT managers to explore the acceptability of both the research and therapy methods. Treatment fidelity will be examined through analysis of therapy session records and recordings. Discussion: The findings of this feasibility trial will inform the decision as to whether to progress to a full-scale randomised controlled trial to explore the effectiveness of Palin STSC(8-14) when compared to Treatment as Usual in NHS SLT services. There is a strong need for an evidence based intervention for school age children who stammer. Trial registration: ISRCTN. ISRCTN17058884.
