To analyze the effect of communication training developed for adolescents on the youth’s communication skills.
Forty-one young people participated in the study and were divided into two groups. Group I received intervention - communication training for five weeks; Group II - were guided on the importance of voice for communication. Participants had their communication skills assessed before/after interventions through a self-administered questionnaire, answered by the participant and parents. Both groups had oral presentations recorded on video, which were analyzed by speech therapists through the evaluation of the communication profile, listing the aspects that should be observed as a point of strength/opportunity for improvement. Association between qualitative variables was assessed using Fischer’s exact test, Pearson’s chi-square test, McNemar’s test, and McNemar-Bowker’s test. To compare groups, paired t-test and t-test for independent samples, p level <0.05, were used.

Quarenta e um jovens participaram do estudo divididos em dois grupos. Grupo I – treinamento de comunicação por duas semanas; Grupo II – palestra sobre importância da voz. Os participantes tiveram suas habilidades comunicativas avaliadas antes e após as intervenções mediante questionário autoaplicado respondido pelos jovens e seus pais. Ambos os grupos tiveram apresentações orais gravadas antes e após as intervenções, que foram avaliadas por fonoaudiólogos através de questionário, listando características da comunicação. A associação entre variáveis qualitativas foi verificada usando teste exato de Fisher, qui-quadrado de Pearson, teste de McNemar e teste de McNemar-Bowker. Para comparação entre os grupos, foram usados teste t para amostras pareadas e teste t para amostras independentes com nível de significância de 95%.
