The present study explored the effectiveness of the Lidcombe Program, the parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT) approach, and an integrated (Lid-PCIT) program on the treatment of children who stutter.
The present research was a single-subject study with an alternative treatment design. Participants were 6 preschool children who were randomly assigned into three groups. Each group received the entire indirect (PCIT), direct (Lidcombe), or integrated (Lid-PCIT) program and were assessed through severity rating (SR), and percent stuttered syllables (%SS), and video analysis.
For all children the SR and the %SS were reduced but the percentage of non-overlapping data of the three interventions showed that it was reduced more in the Lidcombe and in the Lid-PCIT programs.
This study provided preliminary evidence that Lidcombe, PCIT, and integrated programs were effective in reducing the SR and the %SS in preschool children who stutter. These results are potentially important as both indirect and direct interventions in the primary years can help children who stutter to overcome their disorder.
本研究探讨了利德combe程序、亲子互动疗法(PCIT)方法以及综合(利德-PCIT)程序对治疗口吃儿童的有效性。
本研究是一项采用交替治疗设计的单病例研究。参与者为6名学龄前儿童,他们被随机分为三组。每组接受完整的间接(PCIT)、直接(利德combe)或综合(利德-PCIT)程序,并通过严重程度评分(SR)、口吃音节百分比(%SS)和视频分析进行评估。
对所有儿童而言,SR和%SS均有所降低,但三种干预措施的非重叠数据百分比表明,利德combe程序和利德-PCIT程序中的降低幅度更大。
本研究提供了初步证据,表明利德combe程序、PCIT程序和综合程序在降低口吃学龄前儿童的SR和%SS方面是有效的。这些结果可能具有重要意义,因为小学阶段的间接和直接干预都可以帮助口吃儿童克服他们的障碍。
