先前的研究表明，口吃常常伴有并发疾病，包括社交焦虑症、注意力缺陷/多动障碍（ADHD）和自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）。尽管口吃可能会对工作场所产生负面影响，但这些同时发生的疾病与个人工作之间的关联尚不清楚。我们调查了口吃成年人中口吃和并发疾病与工作困难之间的关系 (AWS)。对 110 名日本 AWS 进行了问卷调查，获取有关他们的个人和工作人口统计数据、自评口吃严重程度以及评估社交焦虑症、注意力缺陷多动症和自闭症谱系障碍的筛查量表的信息。我们对达到同时发生的社交焦虑症、注意力缺陷多动症或自闭症谱系障碍分数线的年龄匹配组和未达到任何这些疾病分数线的参与者的工作人口统计数据进行了比较。总体而言，分别有 42.7%、21.8% 和 12.7% 的参与者达到了社交焦虑障碍、ADHD 和 ASD 的截止分数。我们发现，自评工作困难与社交焦虑症筛查分数和自评口吃严重程度呈正相关。群体比较显示，那些怀疑患有并发疾病的人也认为他们的自评工作困难比仅口吃的群体要严重得多。除了口吃不流利之外，社交焦虑症和其他同时发生的疾病也与 AWS 的工作场所体验呈负相关。在评估AWS的工作场所条件时，我们应该综合评估并发疾病。我们的结果还强调了旨在预防或减轻 AWS 社交焦虑的干预措施的重要性。
Previous studies have indicated that stuttering is often accompanied by co-occurring disorders, including social anxiety disorder, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although stuttering can have negative influences within the workplace, the association between these co-occurring disorders and individuals’ jobs is unclear. We investigated the association of stuttering and co-occurring disorders with job difficulties among adults who stutter (AWS). A questionnaire was administered to 110 Japanese AWS, gaining information on their individual and job demographics, self-rated stuttering severity, and screening scales assessing social anxiety disorder, ADHD, and ASD. We compared participants’ job demographics between the age-matched group of individuals who achieved the cut-off scores for co-occurring social anxiety disorder, ADHD, or ASD, and the group who did not reach the cut-off scores for any of these disorders. In total, 42.7%, 21.8%, and 12.7% of participants achieved the cut-off scores of social anxiety disorder, ADHD, and ASD, respectively. We found that self-rated job difficulties are positively correlated with screening scores of social anxiety disorder and self-rated stuttering severity. The group comparison revealed that those with suspicions of co-occurring disorders also rated their self-rated job difficulties as significantly more severe than did the stuttering-only group. Along with stuttering disfluency, social anxiety disorder and other co-occurring disorders have a negative association with the workplace experiences of AWS. In assessing the workplace conditions of AWS, we should comprehensively evaluate co-occurring disorders. Our results also highlight the importance of interventions aimed at preventing or alleviating the social anxiety of AWS.
