Summary

This trial tests a structured, 8-session program designed to help adults who stutter feel less anxious and more confident in job interviews. The program uses techniques like cognitive restructuring, voluntary stuttering, and simulated interviews to gradually reduce fear of negative evaluation. Researchers will measure changes in stuttering frequency, interview anxiety, and self-stigma among 36 participants aged 18-35. The goal is to see if this approach can improve communication confidence and interview performance.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
A structured desensitization-based job interview intervention program, including psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, voluntary stuttering, and graded exposure through simulated interviews.
What this could lead to
If effective, this program could offer a practical, non-drug approach to help adults who stutter feel more confident and perform better in job interviews, potentially improving employment outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 36 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The program's success depends on individual engagement, and it does not directly treat stuttering itself, only the associated anxiety and confidence.
