Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to examine dysfluency characteristics of individuals with Parkinson Disease (PD) relative to linguistic features of grammatical class and position within word. Few studies have reported dysfluency characteristics of PD relative to these characteristics. Those that do report on these characteristics include one case study and a study of six individuals with PD. No previous research is known to have examined dysfluency related to grammatical class and position within words for a large sample of individuals with PD.

Method

Dysfluencies from 32 individuals with PD were analyzed according to position within a word and grammatical class.

Results

Participants produced significantly more dysfluencies in the initial position of words compared to medial or final positions, and a significantly higher percent dysfluency for content words versus function words.

Conclusion

Effects of linguistic features of grammatical class and position within a word on dysfluencies are present within a population with PD and are similar to the linguistic features associated with developmental stuttering. Clinical implications of the effect of linguistic features on speech dysfluencies in PD are discussed.

帕金森氏症的语言障碍特征

目的本研究旨在探讨帕金森病(PD)患者在语法类和词内位置的语言特征方面的不流利特征。很少有研究报道PD的不流畅特征与这些特征有关。那些确实报告了这些特征的研究包括一个案例研究和一个对六个PD患者的研究。此前还没有研究对大量PD患者进行过与语法类和词内位置相关的流利性障碍的调查。方法对32例PD患者进行词汇位置和语法类分析。结果被试在单词的起始位置产生的不流畅性明显高于中间位置或最后位置，实词的不流畅性明显高于虚词的不流畅性。结论在PD人群中，语法类和词内位置的语言特征对语言不流畅的影响是存在的，并且与发展性口吃的语言特征相似。本文讨论了语言特征对PD言语障碍影响的临床意义。
