UNASSIGNED: We compared drug-naïve schizophrenic patients 5 men, 13 women and 18 controls, aged 18-35 years, which had all grown up in Copenhagen speaking modern Danish standard (rigsdansk). We used two different tasks that lay different demands on the speaker to elicit spontaneous speech: a retelling of a film clip and telling a story from pictures in a book. A linguist used the computer program Praat to extract the phonetic linguistic parameters.
UNASSIGNED: We found different results for the two elicitation tasks (Task 1: a retelling of a film clip, task 2: telling a story from pictures in a book). There was higher intensity variation in task one in controls and higher pitch variation in task two in controls. We found a difference in intensity with higher intensity variation in the stresses in the controls in task one and fewer syllables between each stress in the controls. We also found higher F1 variation in task one and two in the patient group and higher F2 variation in the control group in both tasks.
UNASSIGNED: The results varied between patients and controls, but the demands also made a difference. Further research is needed to elucidate the possibilities of acoustic measures in diagnostics or linguistic treatment related to schizophrenia.
■我们比较了未吸毒的精神分裂症患者5名男性,13名妇女和18名对照,18-35岁,都是在哥本哈根长大的,讲现代丹麦标准(rigsdansk)。我们使用了两种不同的任务,对演讲者提出了不同的要求来引发自发的演讲:重述电影剪辑和从书中的图片中讲故事。语言学家使用计算机程序Praat提取语音语言参数。
■我们发现了两个启发任务的不同结果(任务1:电影剪辑的重述,任务2:从书中的图片中讲故事)。控件中任务一的强度变化较高,控件中任务二的音高变化较高。我们发现,在任务1中,控件中的重音强度变化较高,而控件中的每个重音之间的音节较少。我们还发现,在患者组中,任务一和任务二的F1变化较高,而在两个任务中,对照组的F2变化较高。
■患者和对照组的结果各不相同,但是要求也有所不同。需要进一步的研究来阐明声学措施在与精神分裂症相关的诊断或语言治疗中的可能性。
