Fluency disorders, such as stuttering and cluttering, are disorders of speech production that affect the flow of speech. These disorders disrupt the smoothness, rhythm and timing of speech and make communication challenging for people with fluency disorders. Fluency disorders can significantly affect a person’s communication efficiency, social interaction, academic and occupational performance, and psychosocial well-being.
