Do you have difficulty with your speech? If so, researchers at the University of Sheffield are seeking the views of people with Dysarthria, a common speech difficulty, focusing on how people with dysarthria communicate emotions.
They are inviting people to complete this online survey in a bid to discover how people with Dysarthria communicate their emotions. For example, you may use a communication aid to help you communicate with others.
The research is trying to find out more about:
- How difficult it is to properly communicate your emotions to other people
- Which emotions you feel are important for you to convey to other people
- What methods you tend to use to communicate your emotions to other people
- Whether there is a difference in the way you communicate emotions to familiar and unfamiliar people
This research has ethical approval from the University of Sheffield and is conducted by Lubna Alhinti, a PhD student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Sheffield.
