Stuttering is a syndrome of a large number of manifestations for which there is no universally accepted definition. It is most commonly associated with an atypical speech pattern, but includes many other components of human life such as emotions, cognition and social aspects (Yairi and Seery, 2015). In it's complexity, stuttering can affect many aspects of human life, as well as professional and academic development of a person (Shapiro, 2011). The aim of this graduate thesis is to examine whether the stuttering affects the choice of schools, faculties or profession in general in the population of people who stutter at the territory of the Republic of Croatia and the countries of the region. Also, the aim is to examine whether stuttering affects the performance of the profession as well as examining the satisfaction of the chosen profession. For the purposes of research, a questionnaire entitled "Stuttering and the choice of profession" was created with a total of 28 particles in an electronic version. 103 respondents, people who stutter from the territory of the Republic of Croatia and the countries of the region ranging from chronological age 18 to 62 years participated in the research. The questionnaire is sent electronically to the people who stutter. The obtained data were processed by nonparametric tests and by descriptive analysis. The results have shown that there is no statistically significant correlation between the age of stuttering and strength of stuttering with the choice of proffesion, but there is a statistically significant correlation between the person's involvement in the therapy and the choice of proffesion. It has also been shown that respondents covered by this survey are the most frequently selecting social areas of interest. Furthermore, there has been a statistically significant correlation between the strength of stuttering and avoiding speech-related activities, as well as the strength of stuttering and feelings of anxiety at work or college. Also, most respondents state that they would do their proffesion better if they do not stutter, but in general they are satisfied with the choice of their profession. Additionally, most respondents at work or faculty avoid activities involving speech, and also, there is a number of people who feel undervalued for their own activities because of their own stuttering at work or college. Based on the obtained data it is possible to conclude that stuttering has no implications for the choice of profession, but has implication for the occupation of the chosen proffesion.
