“…In response to this problem, some researchers have recently begun to explore how to measure the constructs of quality of life and health-related quality of life in stuttering (Bothe, Ingham, & Franic, 2010;Bramlett, Bothe, & Franic, 2006;Craig, Blumgart, & Tran, 2009;Franic & Bothe, 2008;Franic, Bothe, & Bramlett, 2012;Koedoot, Bouwmans, Franken, & Stolk, 2011;Yaruss & Quesal, 2006).
