Recent literature supports using an awareness training treatment package to decrease speech disfluencies for college students delivering short speeches. This package includes identifying speech disfluencies first via a video recording (video training), then during in vivo speech practice (in vivo training). However, the literature lacks an evaluation of these subcomponents, which poses a barrier to better understanding the efficiency, social validity, and potential underlying behavioral principles of awareness training. We conducted an add-in component analysis with 8 college students by implementing either video or in vivo training first, evaluating treatment effects via a posttest, then implementing the remaining subcomponent, if warranted. We found that in vivo speech practice may be sufficient for reducing disfluencies for some participants, but a treatment package including the sequential application of both video and in vivo training is more likely to result in marked behavior change.
最近的文献支持使用意识训练治疗包来减少大学生发表简短演讲时的言语不流畅。该治疗包包括首先通过视频记录（视频训练）识别言语不流畅，然后在现场演讲练习中（现场训练）识别。然而，文献中缺乏对这些子组件的评估，这对更好地理解意识训练的效率、社会有效性和潜在的行为原则构成了障碍。我们对 8 名大学生进行了附加组件分析，首先实施视频或现场训练，通过后测评估治疗效果，然后在必要时实施剩余的子组件。我们发现，现场言语练习对于一些参与者来说可能足以减少不流畅，但包括视频和现场训练的顺序应用的治疗包更有可能导致显著的行为改变。
