The aim of this study was to ascertain the extent to which Australian public universities and their associated disability liaison services offer web-based information for current or prospective students who stutter. The disability pages of the websites of all 39 public universities in Australia were visited and the information about disability services assessed according to 12 criteria developed by the authors. Results indicate that there is a dearth of information on Australian university websites available for students or prospective students who stutter. Only 13% of the sites reported any form of alternative teaching and assessment procedures for speech-impaired students and only 51% of 39 disability liaison officers responded when contacted by email. Such a student could not make an informed choice to enrol in a university based upon the information on disability services available on public Australian university websites.
本研究的目的是确定澳大利亚公立大学及其相关的残疾联络服务机构为口吃的在校学生或准学生提供基于网络信息的程度。访问了澳大利亚所有39所公立大学网站的残疾相关页面，并根据作者制定的12项标准对残疾服务信息进行了评估。结果表明，澳大利亚大学网站上缺乏可供口吃学生或准学生使用的信息。只有13%的网站报告了针对有语言障碍学生的任何形式的替代教学和评估程序，在通过电子邮件联系时，39名残疾联络官员中只有51%做出了回应。这样的学生无法根据澳大利亚公立大学网站上提供的残疾服务信息做出明智的入学选择。
