背景。研究表明,听众对有沟通障碍的人有负面的归因。这似乎是医疗保健专业人员和非专业听众的情况。目标。这项研究将这一研究扩展到患有习得性构音障碍的说话者。这些客户经常抱怨,在他们出现语言障碍后,听众对他们的态度有所不同。该研究考察了卫生保健专业人员对患有习得性构音障碍的说话者的认知状况的判断。方法和程序。医生、言语和语言治疗师以及言语和语言治疗专业的学生观看了后天性构音障碍患者的视频,以及年龄和性别相匹配的、后天性神经缺陷不影响言语的对照组的视频。听者判断说话者是否能完成一些日常任务。所有的任务都在演讲者的能力范围内。结果和结果。医生对患有构音障碍的说话者的能力的信心明显低于对照组。在言语和语言治疗师和言语和语言治疗学生中没有发现差异。结论:虽然在将这些结果推广到其他说话者时需要谨慎,但这些结果在一定程度上支持了获得性构音障碍患者的抱怨,即他们的语言导致其他人(在这种情况下是医生)错误判断他们的认知能力。
Background. Studies have shown that listeners make negative attributions towards people with communication impairments. This appears to be the case for healthcare professionals as well as non-professional listeners. Aims. This study extends this line of research to speakers with acquired dysarthria. These clients often complain that listeners treat them differently after the onset of their speech impairment. The study examines judgements of the cognitive status of speakers with acquired dysarthria made by health care professionals. Methods and procedures. Doctors, speech and language therapists and speech and language therapy students viewed videos of speakers with acquired dysarthria and of controls matched for age and gender who had acquired neurological deficits that did not affect their speech. Listeners judged whether speakers could carry out a number of everyday tasks. All the tasks were known to be within the speakers' competence. Outcomes and results. Doctors were significantly less confident of the competence of speakers with dysarthria than of the controls. No difference was found for speech and language therapists or speech and language therapy students. Conclusions Although caution is required in generalizing these results to other speakers, the results lend some support to the complaints of clients with acquired dysarthria that their speech leads others, in this case doctors, to misjudge their cognitive competence.
