ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

understanding the experience of people who stutter, both in and out treatment, will lead to improved outcomes.

AIM:

to investigate how stuttering affects the quality of life of children and adolescents who stutter.

METHOD:

the Overall Assessment of the Speaker's Experience of Stuttering - School-Age (OASES-S) was used to assess the impact of stuttering and the Fluency Profile Protocol was used to stuttering severity.

RESULTS:

these age groups do experience moderate negative impact as measured by the OASES-S. The results showed a tendency toward a positive correlation between severity and the impact of stuttering on quality of life.

CONCLUSION:

a better understanding of the impact of stuttering in these age groups provides a needed guide for the development of stuttering treatments and treatment outcomes research.

RESULTADOS:

os grupos estudados experienciam impacto negativo moderado conforme medido pelo OASES-S. Os resultados evidenciam tendência à correlação positiva entre grau de severidade e impacto da gagueira na qualidade de vida.
