A Handbook on Stuttering
The revised edition of A Handbook on Stuttering continues its remarkable role as the authoritative, first-line resource for researchers and clinicians who work in the field of fluency and stuttering. Now in its seventh edition, this unique book goes beyond merely updating the text to include coverage of roughly 1,000 articles related to stuttering research and practice that have been published since 2008. This extended coverage integrates the more traditional body of research with evolving views of stuttering as a multi-factorial, dynamic disorder.

Temperament characteristics of adults with chronic stuttering
Aim of the study The aim of the study was to define the temperament characteristics among adults with chronic stuttering on the basis of Pavlov’s theory. Material and methods The test group consisted of 68 stuttering individuals, and the control group consisted of 62 non-stuttering individuals, who were selected for the research group in reference to gender and age. The Pavlovian Temperament Survey (PTS) constructed by Strelau and Zawadzki was used in the research. Results The strength of excitation and inhibition among stuttering people are placed on the level of the lower limit of average results and are statistically significantly lower (p < 0.001; p < 0.01 ) than among individuals in the control group. Mobility of nervous processes is on the average level and is statistically significantly lower (p < 0.01) than in the control group. In both groups, nervous processes are balanced, although among stuttering people, to a statistically significantly lower degree than in the control group (p < 0.001). Conclusions Typical temperamental characteristics of stuttering adults are: 1) low strength of excitation, which indicates a high reactivity level to sensory and emotional stimuli, 2) low strength of inhibition, which indicates lower ability to control their behaviour, to control their emotions, and not to become disorganised under the influence of disturbing stimuli, 3) lower mobility of nervous processes, which makes it difficult to adapt to new situations, and 4) a weak nature of nervous system (low strength of excitation and inhibition and poor mobility).

How Stuttering Develops: The Multifactorial Dynamic Pathways Theory
Purpose: We advanced a multifactorial, dynamic account of the complex, nonlinear interactions of motor, linguistic, and emotional factors contributing to the development of stuttering. Our purpose here is to update our account as the multifactorial dynamic pathways theory. Method: We review evidence related to how stuttering develops, including genetic/epigenetic factors; motor, linguistic, and emotional features; and advances in neuroimaging studies. We update evidence for our earlier claim: Although stuttering ultimately reflects impairment in speech sensorimotor processes, its course over the life span is strongly conditioned by linguistic and emotional factors. Results: Our current account places primary emphasis on the dynamic developmental context in which stuttering emerges and follows its course during the preschool years. Rapid changes in many neurobehavioral systems are ongoing, and critical interactions among these systems likely play a major role in determining persistence of or recovery from stuttering. Conclusion: Stuttering, or childhood onset fluency disorder (\"Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,\" 5th edition; American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013), is a neurodevelopmental disorder that begins when neural networks supporting speech, language, and emotional functions are rapidly developing. 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.

Fractional anisotropy reduction in developmental stuttering: Its basis, relationship to stuttering frequency, and potential utility
Introduction Several diffusion tensor (DT) imaging studies[1-3] of persistent developmental stuttering speakers (PSs) have reported reductions in fractional anisotropy (FA) relative to normally fluent speakers (NFS).
