초록

본 연구에서는 POSHA-S(Public Opinion Survey of Human Attributes-stuttering; St. Louis)를 이용하여 직업군인의 말더듬과 말을 더듬는 사람에 대한 일반적 인식을 조사하였다. 총67명의 직업군인(남자: 58명, 여자: 9명, 영관급 장교: 11명, 부사관: 56명, 평균나이: 31.9세, 표준편차: 8.7)이 참여하였으며, 수집된 자료는 St. Louis가 제시한 방식을 활용하여 분석하였다. 직업군인의 인식 정도를 분석하기 위해 다양한 문화권, 국가, 집단의 230개의 표본수, 총 20,941명(2023년 6월 기준)의 대상자의 답변으로 구축된 POSHA-S 데이터베이스와 비교해 상대적인 백분위수(%ile)를 산출하였다. 분석 결과, 전체 말더듬 점수가 7점으로, POSHA-S 데이터베이스의 14%ile에 해당되었다. 또한 '말을 더듬는 사람에 대한 자기반응' 하위점수가 -11점으로, POSHA-S 데이터베이스의 8%ile에 해당되었다. 직업군인의 말더듬과 말을 더듬는 사람에 대한 전반적으로 부정적인 인식을 보여주는 결과이다. 따라서 말더듬과 말을 더듬는 사람에 대한 군대 내, 특히 지휘관으로서 직업군인을 대상으로 한 인식 개선 교육이나 관련 프로그램 수행이 필요함을 제언하고자 한다.

This study investigated the perceptions of military personnel toward stuttering and persons who stutter (PWS) using the Public Opinion Survey of Human Attributes of -Stuttering (POSHA-S). A total of 67 military personnel participated in the study (male: 58, female: 9, commissioned officers: 11, non-commissioned officers: 56, with an average age of 31.9 years and a standard deviation of 8.7), and the collected data were analyzed according to the guidelines provided by St. Louis. To compare the perceptions of military personnel toward stuttering and PWS, percentile ranks (%iles) relative to the global POSHA-S database, which were constructed from responses from a total of 20,941 participants from various cultural regions, countries, and groups (as of June 2023), were retrieved. Results showed that the overall stuttering score for military personnel was 7, corresponding to the 14 percentile in the POSHA-S database. In addition, the sub-score for ' self-reactions to PWS' was -11 (8 percentile in the POSHA-S database). These results revealed that military personnel hold more negative attitudes toward stuttering and PWS, overall. These findings emphasized the importance of addressing the lack of accurate information among military personnel, suggesting a need for educational programs mainly aimed at improving the understanding of stuttering and PWS within the military.
