Abstract

 Stuttering (stammering) is a multifactorial neurolinguistic disorder characterized by impaired tempo-rhythmic organization of speech. The aim of this work is to systematize current data on the pathogenesis and risk factors of stuttering in children, as well as to present our own clinical observations and results of correctional intervention. Based on the examination of 32 children aged 3-10 years, it was found that children with early perinatal risk factors and increased anxiety demonstrate more severe forms of stuttering; comprehensive therapy (speech therapy + rhythm therapy + neuropsychological correction + anxiety management) improves speech in 72% of cases. The results are presented with tables and diagrams.
