The aim of the study was to determine the correlation between the personality trait extraversion and the communication attitude in people who stutter (PWS).
Thirty PWS completed Erickson's Communication Attitude Scale (S-24) (Andrews & Cutler, 1974) as well as a Dutch adaptation of the extraversion scale of the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (Hoekstra, Ormel, & Fruyt, 1996).
The communication attitude scores correlated significantly with the extraversion scores: PWS with a more negative communication attitude were more introvert and PWS with a more positive attitude were more extravert.
This result suggests that the S-24 is not only sensitive to communication attitude in relation to speech impairment, but also to the respondent's degree of extraversion. Consequently, assessment of communication attitude needs to be re-thought so as to take personality factors into account.
Readers should be able to: (a) describe the difference between temperament and personality; (b) describe what the S-24 Communication Attitude Scale measures in PWS; (c) describe how the personality trait extraversion may influence the communication attitude in PWS; (d) describe how the extraversion scale is correlated to the communication attitude scale according to the authors of this article.
本研究旨在确定口吃者（PWS）的外向性人格特质与沟通态度之间的相关性。
30名口吃者完成了埃里克森沟通态度量表（S-24）（安德鲁斯和卡特勒，1974年）以及荷兰版的大五人格量表中外向性量表（胡克斯特拉、奥梅尔和弗鲁伊特，1996年）。
沟通态度得分与外向性得分显著相关：沟通态度较消极的口吃者更内向，而态度较积极的口吃者更外向。
这一结果表明，S-24不仅对与言语障碍相关的沟通态度敏感，而且对受访者的外向程度也敏感。因此，需要重新考虑沟通态度的评估，以便将人格因素考虑在内。
读者应能够：（a）描述气质与人格之间的差异；（b）描述S-24沟通态度量表在口吃者中测量的内容；（c）描述外向性人格特质如何影响口吃者的沟通态度；（d）根据本文作者的描述，说明外向性量表与沟通态度量表之间的相关性。
