Polish-speaking students’ self-assessment in cluttering – pilot studies

Summary/Abstract: It is not only in Poland that the need to initiate new research on cluttering and disseminate up-to-date reliable knowledge on this phenomenon is recognised. The main aim of the research was to identify whether young adults notice in themselves any characteristics of cluttering, and if so, which ones, and with what severity. The study involved N = 726 Polish-speaking students from 54 higher education institutions, including: n = 638 (87.8%) non-logopaedics/non-speech therapy students and n = 88 (12.2%) logopaedics/speech therapy students. In the survey Forms questionnaire was used, developed by Monika Kaźmierczak on the basis of the Predictive Cluttering Inventory and the COCAF-4 Checklist of Cluttering & Associated Features. The analysis of the self-assessment results identified three groups of respondents with: I – slight, II – moderate and III – high severity of the features of cluttering. The vast majority of respondents have never heard of cluttering and are unfamiliar with this linguistic and communicative phenomenon. Therefore, any action aimed at raising awareness of cluttering among students is vital.
