Kekemeliği Olan ve Olmayan Çocukların Mizaç Boyutları, Dikkat Eksikliği Hiperaktivite Bozukluğu Nitelikleri ve Kaygı Tiplerinin Karşılaştırılması

Bu çalışmanın amacı, kekemeliği olan ve olmayan okul çağı çocukların mizaç boyutları, dikkat eksikliği hiperaktivite bozukluğu (DEHB) nitelikleri ve kaygı tipleri açısından karşılaştırılmasıdır. Çalışmanın katılımcı grubu 32 kekemeliği olan (Yaş aralığı = 8-11) ve 32 kekemeliği olmayan (Yaş aralığı = 8-11) çocuktan oluşmuştur. Çalışmada Conners Ana Baba Dereceleme Ölçeği Yenilenmiş Uzun Formu, Spence Çocuklar için Anksiyete Ölçeği-Ebeveyen Formu ve Okul Çağı Çocuklar için Mizaç Ölçeği veri toplama aracı olarak kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca kekemeliği olan grup için kekemelik şiddeti, Kekemelik Şiddetini Değerlendirme Aracı-4 kullanılarak hesaplanmıştır. Kekemeliği olan çocuklar belirli mizaç boyutları (ör. olumsuz tepkisellik), DEHB nitelikleri ve kaygı tipleri açısından kekemeliği olmayan çocuklara kıyasla anlamlı olarak daha yüksek skorlar elde etmişlerdir. Bununla birlikte kekemelik şiddeti ile diğer değişkenler arasında anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmamıştır. Çalışma, bazı DEHB nitelikleri ve kaygı tiplerinin kekemeliğe eşlik edebileceğini göstermiştir. Ayrıca kekemeliği olan çocukların, mizacın bazı boyutları açısından farklı bir profil sergilediği öne sürülebilir.

Comparison of Children Who Do and Do Not Stutter Regarding Dimensions of Temperament, Aspects of Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Anxiety Types

The aim of this study was to compare school-age children who do (CWS) and do not stutter (CWNS) in terms of temperament dimensions, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) aspects and anxiety types. Participants were 32 CWS (Age range = 8–11) and 32 CWNS (Age range=8-11). The Conners’ Parent Rating Scale Long Form-Revised, Spence Children’s Anxiety Scale–Parent and The School-Age Temperament Inventory were administered to collect data. Also, the stuttering severity of the CWS was measured using the Stuttering Severity Instrument-4. CWS had significantly higher scores for certain temperament dimensions (eg. negative reactivity), ADHD aspects and anxiety types than CWNS. However, no significant relationship was found between the stuttering severity and other variables. The present study showed that some ADHD aspects and anxiety types can accompany stuttering. Also, it can be suggested that the CWS exhibits a different profile in terms of some temperament dimensions than CWNS.
