INTRODUCTION: Though the research on the quality of life of people who stutter is extensive, there is minimal research on cluttering's life impact. Anecdotal reports from people who clutter1 and their significant others have described some elements of cluttering's impact and advocated for these components to be addressed in treatment. Three formal studies have used semistructured interviews to document cluttering's impact. These non-peer-reviewed studies make important contributions; however, more research is needed to add to this existing information. The current study adds perspectives of adults who clutter related to cluttering's impact upon the specific contexts of work, school, and social situations.
METHOD: In this phenomenological study, 10 adults who clutter participated in a semistructured interview. Through grand tour, mini tour, and example questions, participants were asked to provide their perspective on the life impact of cluttering. Each interview was orthographically transcribed, and transcripts were coded for themes. Triangulation and member checking were conducted to establish reliability and validity of themes.
RESULTS: Results revealed the following themes: Social impact of cluttering leads to avoidance, misunderstanding, and feelings of isolation; cluttering impacts natural tendencies; educational impact of cluttering results in misunderstanding and struggle; occupational impact of cluttering leads to role entrapment and difficulty maintaining employment.
CONCLUSIONS: This study adds perspectives of adults who clutter regarding specific aspects of quality of life such as social isolation, frequent misunderstandings, and negative educational and occupational impact. As more voices are heard within the cluttering community, more support is presented for the importance of understanding the negative life impact cluttering can have. Further understanding of these perspectives adds to the information needed to inform holistic cluttering assessment and treatment.
