Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess self-perceived communication competence of adults who stutter following participation in a non-ableist treatment for which one of the core components focuses on communication - with no direct or indirect goals designed to reduce or modify stuttered speech.

Method: Thirty-three adults who stutter completed the Self-Perceived Communication Competence scale (McCroskey & McCroskey, 1988) pre- and posttreatment.

Results: Findings indicate significant gains in self-perceived communication competence posttreatment. Pre- to posttreatment changes in stuttering did not predict posttreatment gains in self-perceived communication competence.

Conclusion: The present study demonstrates that improvement in communication can be achieved independent of improvement in fluency, lending further support to the notion that stuttering and communication competence are distinct constructs.

以沟通为中心的治疗后口吃成人的自我沟通能力。

目的：本研究的目的是评估口吃成年人在参加非口吃矫正治疗后的自我认知交流能力，该治疗的核心内容之一是交流--没有旨在减少或改变口吃言语的直接或间接目标：方法：33 名成年口吃患者在治疗前和治疗后完成了自我认知交流能力量表（McCroskey & McCroskey，1988 年）：结果：研究结果表明，治疗后自我感觉交流能力明显提高。治疗前和治疗后口吃的变化并不能预测治疗后自我感觉沟通能力的提高：本研究表明，沟通能力的提高可以独立于流利程度的提高，这进一步支持了口吃和沟通能力是不同概念的观点。

期刊介绍： Mission: AJSLP publishes peer-reviewed research and other scholarly articles on all aspects of clinical practice in speech-language pathology. The journal is an international outlet for clinical research pertaining to screening, detection, diagnosis, management, and outcomes of communication and swallowing disorders across the lifespan as well as the etiologies and characteristics of these disorders. Because of its clinical orientation, the journal disseminates research findings applicable to diverse aspects of clinical practice in speech-language pathology. AJSLP seeks to advance evidence-based practice by disseminating the results of new studies as well as providing a forum for critical reviews and meta-analyses of previously published work. Scope: The broad field of speech-language pathology, including aphasia; apraxia of speech and childhood apraxia of speech; aural rehabilitation; augmentative and alternative communication; cognitive impairment; craniofacial disorders; dysarthria; fluency disorders; language disorders in children; speech sound disorders; swallowing, dysphagia, and feeding disorders; and voice disorders.
