Exam 3: When and How Does Stuttering Begin How Does It Develop
What kinds of evidence have been used to document natural recovery? Why does the age of the children at the beginning of a study make a difference?
The kinds of evidence used to document natural recovery include longitudinal studies, which track the progress of individuals over time, as well as retrospective studies that look back at the development of individuals who have recovered naturally. These studies often rely on a combination of parent and teacher reports, standardized assessments, and observations of the child's behavior and functioning.
The age of the children at the beginning of a study makes a difference because younger children may be more likely to show natural recovery due to their developing neuroplasticity and their brains' ability to adapt and reorganize. Additionally, younger children are more likely to receive early intervention services, which can contribute to their natural recovery. Older children, on the other hand, may have had longer periods of impairment and may have missed out on early intervention opportunities, making natural recovery less likely. Therefore, the age of the children at the beginning of a study can significantly impact the likelihood and trajectory of natural recovery.
