Profet, a word prediction program, was designed to accelerate the writing process and to minimize the writing effort of persons with motor dysfunction. It has also proved to be beneficial in text construction for persons with linguistic impairment such as dyslexia. With increasing linguistic demands on support for individuals with severe reading and writing difficulties/dyslexia, the need for an improved version of Profet arose. Thus, Profet II was designed. In this study, a procedure for evaluating Profet II has been developed. Results from a single-case evaluation study with a person with dyslexia are presented. The possible implications for support and aspects such as spelling, morphology and subjective judgements of and attitudes towards texts are discussed.
Profet是一款文字预测程序，旨在加快写作过程，并将运动功能障碍患者的写作工作量降至最低。事实证明，它对患有诵读困难等语言障碍的人在文本构建方面也有益处。随着对严重读写困难/诵读困难患者支持的语言要求不断提高，改进版的Profet应运而生。因此，Profet II被设计出来。在本研究中，已开发出一种评估Profet II的程序。本文呈现了对一名诵读困难患者进行的单病例评估研究结果。文中还讨论了其对支持的潜在影响以及拼写、形态学等方面，以及对文本的主观判断和态度。
