Fluency disorders such as stuttering, cluttering, and atypical
disfluency are often accompanied by concomitant speech and language
disorders, as well as other disorders impacting and interacting
with fluency. Despite this common presentation, there is little
training for speech-language pathologists to confidently treat
fluency disorders and concomitant disorders together. Fluency Plus:
Managing Fluency Disorders in Individuals with Multiple Diagnoses
fills this much-needed gap, providing a strong research base along
with practical strategies and treatment activities to guide
speech-language pathologists in managing clients with fluency and
concomitant disorders. Dr. Kathleen Scaler Scott brings her years
of clinical experience and her research in the area of cluttering
and atypical disfluencies to bear in Fluency Plus designing it to
act as both a textbook for students and a practical guide for the
clinician. The comprehensive review of current definitions of
fluency disorders and the evidence base for treatments will be of
great help to students, while clinicians will appreciate the
specific guidelines, strategies, and activities for managing
fluency in concomitant disorders. After reviewing general
principles and covering how executive functions relate to the
management of these multiple concerns, the text addresses seven
concomitant disorder areas the speech-language pathologist may
encounter in practice. For each disorder category, an overview of
potential fluency problems is provided, myths regarding treatment
of fluency disorders in each population are debunked, and effective
treatment activities are recommended. Some Concomitant Disorders
Covered: Intellectual Disability Speech Sound Disorders (apraxia,
phonological, articulation disorders) Learning Disabilities,
Auditory Processing and Language Disorders Attention Deficit
Disorders Autism Spectrum Disorder Selective Mutism Fluency Plus:
Managing Fluency Disorders in Individuals with Multiple Diagnoses
helps close an education and training gap for students and
clinicians alike by increasing their confidence, knowledge, and
skills when dealing with fluency disorders and complex combinations
of concomitant disorders.
