Stuttering, also known as stammering, refers to a speech disorder that can disrupt the normal flow of speech. Approximately 3 million Americans experience stuttering, according to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). Further, it is estimated that around 0.96% of the adult population is affected by stuttering.
The report provides a comprehensive overview of the disease, as well as historical and projected data on the epidemiology of stuttering in the 8 major markets.
The epidemiology of stuttering varies between countries owing to differences in genetic predisposition, cultural attitudes, access to healthcare, and structural variations in language, among others. Various studies indicate that the prevalence rate of stuttering ranges from 0.35% to 2.61% in English-speaking British and American children.

Stuttering Disease Overview
Stuttering is a speech condition that involves frequent problems with the flow of speech and normal fluency. An individual who stutters prolongs or repeats sounds, words, or syllables. Stuttering typically starts in early childhood, between the ages of 2 and 5, when language skills are expanding. The speech disorder can have a genetic cause, with certain environmental stressors increasing the extent and frequency of stuttering. Various studies suggest that stuttering might have a neurological basis.Stuttering: Treatment Overview
For the treatment of stuttering, a child is taken to a speech-language pathologist if the condition persists for more than six months and happens frequently during the day. Speech therapy is a common treatment option that focuses on enhancing communication skills and building confidence. Families of the patients are also advised to work closely with the speech-language pathologist and be counseled throughout the therapy process.Epidemiology
The stuttering epidemiology section offers information on the patient pool from history to the present as well as the projected trend for each of the 8 major markets. The publisher provides both current and predicted trends for stuttering by examining a wide range of studies. Additionally, the report covers the diagnosed patient pool for stuttering and their trends. The data is broken down into specific categories, such as total prevalent cases in males and females, and total diagnosed cases across different age groups and patient pools.- As per the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), more than 3 million Americans are affected by stuttering.
- According to a study published in the Journal of Fluency Disorders (2025), 0.96% of the general population accounts for adults who stutter, with 0.63% stuttering overtly and 0.33% stuttering covertly.
- Approximately 5% of children are affected by a period of stuttering behavior during neurodevelopment, as per Bloodstein, Bernstein Ratner & Brundage (2021)
- The National Institute of Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) states that 5% to 10% of all children experience stuttering at some point.
