简要总结
The aim is to gain information about vocal hygiene knowledge level, phonotrauma behavior frequency, voice-related quality of life, and voice handicap index scores in children diagnosed with ADHD aged 8 to 11, through inter-group comparisons of scale and questionnaire data between children diagnosed with ADHD and control group participants aged 8 to 11.
详细描述
The study will include children aged 8 to 11 with and without a diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The study and control groups have been determined with age and gender matching.
Within the scope of the study, a comparison between groups will be conducted through the scores of the Vocal Hygiene Awareness form, Pediatric Phonotrauma Assessment Questions for Parents, Voice Related Quality of Life Survey, and the Teacher-Reported Pediatric Voice Handicap Index to examine whether there are any differences between the groups. The Vocal Hygiene Awareness form will be completed by the child. The Pediatric Phonotrauma Assessment Questions for Parents, Voice Related Quality of Life Survey, and the Pediatric Voice Handicap Index will be completed by the parents. The Teacher-Reported Pediatric Voice Handicap Index will be filled out by the child's teacher.
The number of participants to be included in the study has been calculated using G Power 3.1 program. Based on an analysis with a power of 0.80 and α (type 1 error) = 0.05 using an independent t-test, 42 participants for each group, totaling 84 participants, are planned to be included in the study. Data analysis will be carried out using IBM SPSS Statistics 23 program. Firstly, the normal distribution of ordinal variables will be tested. If the assumption of normality is met, parametric tests will be used; otherwise, non-parametric tests will be employed. A statistical significance value of p < 0.05 will be considered.
