It is well known that unusual speech quality may result from stuttering treatments that are based on prolonged speech. However, empirical information concerning the speech quality associated with those treatments is lacking. The present study was designed to contribute such empirical information. Results indicated that speech quality assessments of posttreatment clients, using Martin, Haroldson, and Triden's (1984) speech naturalness scale, gave similar results regardless of whether they were based on monologues or conversations. The speech quality of those clients remained stable at the conclusion of their treatment program. Further, there was a significant, positive correlation between pretreatment speech measures and measures of speech naturalness made after the establishment of stutter-free speech. The subjects whose pretreatment stuttering was the most severe had posttreatment speech naturalness scores that were more than two scale values worse than the subjects whose pretreatment stuttering was the least severe. Speech naturalness scale scores are presented for nonstutterers and posttreatment stutterers and these data are compared with existing findings.
众所周知，基于延长语音的口吃治疗可能会导致异常的语音质量。然而，缺乏与这些治疗相关的语音质量的实证信息。本研究旨在提供此类实证信息。结果表明，使用马丁、哈罗德森和特里登（1984年）的语音自然度量表对治疗后的客户进行语音质量评估，无论评估基于独白还是对话，结果都相似。这些客户的语音质量在治疗计划结束时保持稳定。此外，口吃前的语音测量与建立流畅语音后进行的语音自然度测量之间存在显著的正相关。口吃前最严重的受试者在治疗后的语音自然度得分比口吃前最轻微的受试者低两个以上的量表值。给出了非口吃者和治疗后口吃者的语音自然度量表得分，并将这些数据与现有研究结果进行了比较。
