Attitudes of Fourth and Sixth Graders Toward Peers With Mild Articulation Disorders

Barbara J. Crowe Hall 1
1 The Ohio State University and Valdosta State College

This study examined attitudes of fourth and sixth graders toward peers with and without mild articulatory errors. A video-tape was developed with the following peer speakers: a boy with no errors, a girl with no errors, a boy with /r/ errors, a girl with /r/ errors, a boy with /s/ and /z/ errors, and a girl with /s/ and /z/ errors. This videotape was shown to 348 fourth and sixth graders. Attitudes toward speaking ability, the speaker as a peer, and what the speaker would be like as a teenager were measured through the use of semantic differential instruments. Significantly more negative attitudes were found toward the peers who exhibited articulatory errors. Implications for school district policies were discussed.

KEY WORDS: articulation, articulation disorders, attitudes, children
