When the first stage of the Lidcombe program is followed as the program was originally designed, the median treatment time to achieve the criteria of near-zero levels of stuttering is 11 one-hour weekly clinic visits, with treatment times varying according to the severity of the stuttering. However, clinicians have been deviating from the standard weekly sessions for various reasons. For instance, some private practitioners are offering first stage treatment visits once every 2 weeks rather than weekly and other practitioners are offering treatment intensively, so that clients from remote areas can have access to the Lidcombe program. As yet, there are no data to confirm whether treatment using fortnightly or twice weekly clinic visits is as effective or efficient as the standard weekly visits. The aim of this project is to evaluate the following questions: (1) Does altering the spacing of LP clinic visits affect treatment efficiency? (2) Does altering the spacing of LP clinic visits affect treatment efficacy?
