语音控制是一种基于大声命令的惩罚技术，已广泛应用于儿科牙科。本研究考察了(a)音量是否是该技术的必要组成部分，(b)声音控制实际上减少了儿童的破坏性行为，以及(c)治疗后儿童的负面情绪增加。研究对象是四十五个三岁半至七岁的儿童，他们有潜在的行为问题，并计划进行龋齿修复。孩子们被随机分配到声音大的组和声音正常的组。被分配到任何一组但不捣乱的孩子组成了一个非实验对照组。在治疗前后，儿童使用自我评估模型报告他们的感受。破坏性行为采用行为概况评定量表进行评分。结果表明，在大声而非正常的语音命令下，儿童的破坏行为减少了（p< 0.05）。004)和自我报告较低的觉醒(p<。09)和更大的快乐(p<。10)。讨论了这些发现的理论和实践意义。
Voice control, a punishment technique based on loud commands, has been used widely in pediatric dentistry. This study examined whether (a) loudness is a necessary component of the technique,(b) voice control actually reduces children’s disruptive behavior, and (c) after treatment, children’s negative affect increases. Subjects were forty 3½-to 7-year-olds who posed potential behavior problems and who were scheduled for cavity restoration. Children were assigned randomly to either loud-or normal-voice groups. Children who were assigned to either group but who were not disruptive formed a nonexperimental control group. Prior to and after treatment, children reported their feelings using the Self-Assessment Mannequin. Disruptive behavior was scored using the Behavior Profile Rating Scale. Results indicated that, following loud, but not normal voice commands, children reduced their disruptive behavior (p<. 004) and self-reported lower arousal (p<. 09) and greater pleasure (p<. 10). Theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.
