Perceptual-phonemic Contrasts of Single-word Intelligibility for Testing Korean Dysarthric Speech

뇌성마비로 인한 마비말장애의 음소대조 낱말명료도와 문장명료도

Abstract

The word intelligibility test for dysarthric speakers was designed to examine phonetic contrasts that are likely (1) to be sensitive to intelligibility impairment and (2) to contribute significantly to speech intelligibility. These phonetically contrasting word pairs were tested and proved to be reliable and to be valid, The results showed that in Korean dysarthric patients, the percentage of error in final position contrast was higher than in any other position. Unlike the results of previous studies, the initial-position contrasts were crucial in predicting the overall intelligibility among Korean patients.

이 연구는 말장애의 진단에 유용한 일음절 낱말대조 명료도 검사 (낱말명료도)의 타당도와 신뢰도를 얻기 위한 것이다. 첫번째로 낱말명료도의 타당성을 확인하기 위하여 문장명료도와의 상관을 구한 결과 상관은 .83으로 비교적 높았다. 두 번째로는 평가자들 간의 일치도를 분석하였다. 낱말명료도는 명료도 손상의 수준에 상관없이 평가자들간에 일정한 변산을 보였다. 마지막으로 낱말명료도 평가도구를 이용하여 마비말장애인의 명료도를 떨어뜨리는데 주요한 역할을 하는 음소대조 요인을 살펴본 결과 종성이 가장 오류가 많았으며 다음으로 초성, 중성의 순서였으나, 회귀분석 결과 초성이 전체 명료도에 미치는 영향이 가장 컸다.
