title: Comments on recent developments in stuttering treatment maintenance research using the Camperdown Program.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  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.
  
  
  METHODS
  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.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  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.
