This investigation utilized 192 college students to determine if the intensity of meaning attached to sex words could be reduced, if change in this meaning intensity was affected by the passage of time, if the intensity of meaning was related to the students' anxiety level, and if students felt more comfortable in using sex words after treatment than they did before treatment. Pretest instruments determined the intensity of meaning and anxiety level. A verbal satiation method was used with the experimental groups. Three posttest time delay measurements were taken in both experimental and control groups. It was concluded that technical health words and common health words produce communication blockages.
本研究利用192名大学生来确定与性相关词汇所附带的意义强度是否能够降低，这种意义强度的变化是否受时间推移的影响，意义强度是否与学生的焦虑水平相关，以及学生在接受治疗后使用性相关词汇时是否比治疗前感觉更自在。预测试工具确定了意义强度和焦虑水平。对实验组采用了言语饱和法。实验组和控制组都进行了三次测试后延时测量。得出的结论是，专业健康词汇和普通健康词汇会产生沟通障碍。
