Abstract

Preschool-age stuttering children can expect to benefit from treatment with the Lidcombe Program of early stuttering intervention. However, it is clear that many young stuttering children will recover naturally. Clinicians must therefore weigh the benefits of early intervention with the likelihood that a child will recover without treatment. A Monitoring Program was implemented as a means of assisting clinicians to make an optimal decision about the timing of intervention for preschool-age clients. Results suggest that such a Program is a useful addition to service delivery models for stuttering children, with savings in clinical hours that are not detrimental to treatment outcomes.
