Közoktatásban tanuló diákok kommunikációs érzékenyítése a beszédzavarok iránt

Abstract

The aim of the investigation presented in this study was to sensitize students in public education to speech disorders. As a result of integration at school, more students with various characteristics and abilities need to cooperate. It is not uncommon that students with different skills or abilities become stigmatized at school. One possible reason is the malfunction of their speech production. Gabbling, stuttering, and lisping are frequent speech errors in the speech of both children and adults. However, if both the speaker and the listener mutually know about them and are aware of the symptoms, it also becomes easier to understand and accept each other. The results of the investigation show how much the students’ knowledge and attitude changes towards speech disorders after a seven-session sensitization training at a primary school: Competences such as tolerance and empathy also develop.
