本研究的目的是探讨是否口吃的严重程度或治疗参与有影响的态度，个人谁不口吃的人报告口吃（PWS）。260名大学生参加了这项研究。直接调查程序组成的25个项目的语义差异规模。比较口吃严重程度、治疗参与程度以及这些变量之间的相互作用。研究结果显示，口吃严重程度和治疗参与度对参与者对PWS的态度有显著影响。这项研究的结果支持了过去的研究，即发现轻度口吃的人比严重口吃的人被认为更积极。同样，数据支持过去的研究，发现参加治疗的PWS比不参加治疗的PWS更积极。令人惊讶的是，这些变量之间的相互作用并不显着。教育目标：读者将能够：（1）解释听众对口吃的态度对PWS的生活可能产生的影响;（2）讨论不同的因素可能如何改变听众对口吃的态度;（3）描述口吃的严重程度和参与治疗可能如何影响听众对PWS的态度。(c)2006爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
The purpose of this study was to explore whether stuttering severity or therapy involvement had an effect on the attitudes that individuals who do not stutter reported towards people who stutter (PWS). Two hundred and sixty (260) university students participated in this study. Direct survey procedures consisting of a 25-item semantic differential scale were utilized. Comparisons of the effects of stuttering severity, level of therapy involvement, and the interaction of these variables were completed. Results suggested that both stuttering severity and therapy involvement had significant effects on participants' attitudes towards PWS. Findings of this study support past research studies that has found that individuals who stutter mildly are perceived more positively than those who are severe. Similarly, the data supported past research that has found that PWS that attend therapy are perceived more positively than those who do not attend therapy. Surprisingly, the interaction of these variables was not significant.Educational objectives: The reader will be able to: (1) explain the possible effects of listeners' attitudes toward stuttering on the lives of PWS; (2) discuss how different factors might alter listeners' attitudes towards stuttering; (3) delineate how stuttering severity and involvement in therapy might impact listeners' attitudes towards PWS.
