stuttering: speech-language pathologist
A person professionally educated in the assessment, prevention and treatment
of disorders of articulation, voice, language and
fluency. Although terms such
as speech correctionist, speech therapist and speech clinician are frequently
used, the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association prefers use of the term Speech-Language-Pathologist. Academic requirements include a master's degree and
the completion of the supervised clinical fellowship year following formal
academic course work, and passing a national examination.*
