失語症患者功能性溝通的需求與表現
Aphasics' Needs and Performance in Functional Communication
摘要
本研究採用量表調查法，以「功能性溝通活動量表」探討45歲以上中老年失語症患者(N=32)功能性溝通需求與表現，並與同年齡之一般中老年人(N=60)進行比較，探究失語症患者和一般人在功能性溝通需求重要性與表現獨立性是否都有顯著差異。本研究也探討溝通需求與表現之間的相關及分別分析失語症患者(N=24)的語言損傷程度和溝通需求及溝通表現之間相關情形。研究結果發現：失語症患者與一般人在八個溝通領域及總溝通需求重要性和表現獨立性都有顯著差異。至於失語症患者的溝通需求重要性和表現獨立性之間，則有中度以上的相關(r=.49-. 72)。再者，患者的語言損傷程度和溝通需求重要性之間相關性較低(r=.43-. 47)，但與表現獨立性之間的相關較高(r=. 68-. 89)，顯示失語症患者語言損傷的輕重程度對溝通需求影響小，但溝通表現則會隨著語言損傷程度的不同而有較顯著差異。

The purpose of the study was to find out aphasics' needs for functional communication and their performance in it. Using a functional communication activities questionnaire as tool, we investigated the needs and performance on functional communication among 32 stroke patients with aphasia and 60 normal subjects. The researcher discovers that the importance of needs for functional communication and the independence of communication performance are significantly different between the two groups. Furthermore, a significant correlation is found between the importance of needs and the performance independence in the aphasic group. Finally, the language impairment level is moderately correlated with the importance of need, and highly correlated with the performance independence in the aphasic group.
