초록

음성장애 평가 시, 음성문제로 인해 개인이 느끼는 불편감, 삶의 질 등의 주관적인 자기보고식 평가의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 자기보고식 설문은 대상자가 직접 읽고 실시하는 것이므로, 대상자가 문항을 충분히 이해하지 못하면 평가 결과에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 현재 임상에서 사용되고 있는 한국어판 음성장애 자기보고식 설문지 11가지(KVHI, KAVI, KVQOL, K-SVHI, K-VAPP, K-VPPC, TVSQ, K-VDCQ, K-VFI, K-VTDS, K-VoiSS)를 선정하여 텍스트 등급 및 복잡도, 어휘 빈도 및 등급, 어휘 다양도의 가독성 분석을 실시하였다. 추가적으로 한국어판과 대응하는 원판 설문지와 아동용 설문지에 대한 가독성 평가를 실시하여 한국어판 성인용 설문지와의 결과 차이를 알아보았다. 연구 결과, 한국어판 성인용 음성장애 설문지는 문해력이 낮은 집단에게 사용하는 것에 어려움이 없을 것으로 밝혀졌다. 평가자는 대상자의 읽기 수준에 따라 평가를 진행해야 하며, 추후 개발 및 수정에도 읽기 난이도를 고려할 필요가 있다.

The significance of self-reported voice assessments concerning patients' chief complaints and quality of life has increased. Therefore, readability assessments of questionnaire items are essential. In this study, readability analyses were performed based on text grade and complexity, vocabulary frequency and grade, and lexical diversity of the 11 Korean versions of self-reported voice disorder questionnaires (KVHI, KAVI, KVQOL, K-SVHI, K-VAPP, K-VPPC, TVSQ, K-VDCQ, K-VFI, K-VTDS, and K-VoiSS). Additionally, a comparative readability assessment was conducted on the original versions of these questionnaires to discern the differences between their Korean counterparts and the questionnaires for children. Consequently, it was determined that voice disorder questionnaires could be used without difficulty for populations with lower literacy levels. Evaluators should consider subjects' reading levels when conducting assessments, and future developments and revisions should consider their reading difficulties.
