What Causes Stuttering?

No single cause of stuttering has been discovered, but research suggests that numerous factors contribute to the disorder. The main aspects thought to collectively cause stuttering include:
  • Genetics
  • Neurological Components
  • Language Development
  • Motoric Ability
  • Child's Temperament

While people who stutter may experience embarrassment, anxiety, stress, and fear regarding speaking, stuttering is NOT an emotional or psychological disorder.
