“…While studies have shown elevated depression symptoms in some adolescents and young adults who stutter (e.g. Briley, Gerlach & Jacobs, 2021;Doruk et al, 2008), others have not (e.g. Bray et al, 2008).…”

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there are elevated symptoms of anxiety or depression in children and adolescents (aged 2–18 years) who stutter, and to identify potential moderators of increased symptom severity. Method: We conducted a preregistered systematic review of databases and gray literature; 13 articles met criteria for inclusion. A meta-analysis using robust variance estimation was conducted with 11 cohort studies comparing symptoms of anxiety in children and adolescents who do and do not stutter. Twenty-six effect sizes from 11 studies contributed to the summary effect size for anxiety symptoms (851 participants). Meta-analysis of depression outcomes was not possible due to the small number of studies. Results: The summary effect size indicates that children and adolescents who stutter present with increased anxiety symptoms ( g = 0.42) compared with nonstuttering peers. There were insufficient studies to robustly analyze depression symptoms, and qualitative review is provided. No significant between-groups differences were reported in any of the depression studies. Conclusions: Preliminary evidence indicates elevated symptoms of anxiety in some children and adolescents who stutter relative to peers. There was a tendency toward higher depression scores in this population, although reported between-groups differences did not reach statistical significance. These findings require replication in larger, preferably longitudinal studies that consider factors that may moderate risk. Nevertheless, our findings highlight a need for careful monitoring of mental health and well-being in young people who stutter.

“…Briley et.al (3) reported that the feelings of hopelessness and frustration were considered psychological health impairment with the stutterer, as a result of stuttering itself or difficulty in connecting sounds and syllables in speech. (3) CWS were exposed to negative social experiences such as bullying and teasing. (4) These behavioral problems interfere negatively with the self-esteem (SE) and anxiety.…”

“…This may be due to stronger negative associations with stuttering in people with recovered stuttering or to people with persistent stuttering having developed better coping mechanisms to manage their anxiety; however, further exploration is required to draw firm conclusions. The complex interrelationships between stuttering, anxiety, and depression warrant deeper investigation, as highlighted by a recent study of young adults that found depressive symptoms to be elevated in people who stutter compared to their fluent peers 42 …”

To examine the phenomenology of stuttering across the lifespan in the largest prospective cohort to date. Method: Participants aged 7 years and older with a history of developmental stuttering were recruited. Self-reported phenotypic data were collected online including stuttering symptomatology, co-occurring phenotypes, genetic predisposition, factors associated with stuttering severity, and impact on anxiety, education, and employment. Results: A total of 987 participants (852 adults: 590 males, 262 females, mean age 49 years [SD = 17 years 10 months; range = 18-93 years] and 135 children: 97 males, 38 females, mean age 11 years 4 months [SD = 3 years; range = 7-17 years]) were recruited. Stuttering onset occurred at age 3 to 6 years in 64.0%. Blocking (73.2%)was the most frequent phenotype; 75.9% had sought stuttering therapy and 15.5% identified as having recovered. Half (49.9%) reported a family history. There was a
