Comments on recent developments in stuttering treatment maintenance research using the Camperdown Program
Purpose:
To review the contribution of recent studies on the Camperdown Program (O'Brian, Onslow, Cream, & Packman, 2003) for treating stuttering in adolescents and adults toward the problem of maintenance of treatment benefits.
Method:
The procedures employed in those studies are reviewed with respect to the use of performance-contingent maintenance schedules, including their recent use in conjunction with social anxiety modification.
Conclusion:
The design of the recent studies of the Camperdown Program confounds the effects of maintenance strategies and treatment outcome evaluation, thereby obscuring their contribution toward resolving the problem of maintenance.
