Procedia Social and Behavioral Sciences Are Inner Speech Self-report Questionnaires Reliable and Valid? (unknown): “The Self-Verbalization Questionnaire (SVQ; Duncan & Cheyne, 1999) is a 27-item (e.g., " I sometimes verbalize my thoughts when I'm working on a difficult problem.”
Executive Function Coaching for College Students with Learning Disabilities and ADHD: A New Approach for Fostering Self–Determination (2009, background): “This outcome allowed students to begin coaching themselves (Depape, 2006; Duncan & Cheyne, 1999).”
The Self-Talk Scale: Development, Factor Analysis, and Validation (2009, background): “However, Duncan and Cheyne’s measure focuses primarily on cognitive, mnemonic, and attentional situations when people think or talk to themselves aloud rather than occurrences of covert self-talk and other possible affective and behavioral self-regulatory functions.”
Private Speech in Illiterate Adults: Cognitive Functions, Task Difficulty, and Literacy (2013, background): “More interesting data are provided by Duncan and Cheyne (1999), who, using a self-report questionnaire administered to 1,132 undergraduate university students, found high levels of reported self-verbalization for the regulation of various cognitive processes.”
Signed soliloquy: visible private speech. (2013, methodology): “Hence, we assumed that our instrument has psychometric properties comparable to those of the well-validated SVQ by Duncan and Cheyne (1999).”
The varieties of inner speech: links between quality of inner speech and psychopathological variables in a sample of young adults. (2011, methodology): “For example, the Self-Verbalization Questionnaire (SVQ; Duncan & Cheyne, 1999) assesses the cognitive and self-regulatory functions of private speech (audible speech intended for the self, not others), yet is not designed to assess inner speech or qualitative aspects of private speech such as…”
Shot through with voices: Dissociation mediates the relationship between varieties of inner speech and auditory hallucination proneness (2014, methodology): “Various methods of investigating inner speech exist, including questionnaires (Duncan & Cheyne, 1999; Morin, Uttl, & Hamper, 2011), experience sampling (Hurlburt et al., 2013) and task-based methods (Murray, 1967).”
Individual differences in children's private speech: the role of imaginary companions. (2013, background): “Kohlberg and colleagues (1968) reported that children continue to use this covert private speech well into middle childhood, and more recent research has shown that private speech endures as a means of regulating cognitive performance even during adulthood (Duncan & Cheyne, 1999, 2002).”
Toward a phenomenology of inner speaking. (2013, unknown): “Duncan and Cheyne (1999), Hardy, Hall, and Hardy (2005), Brinthaupt, Hein, and Kramer (2009), Siegrist (1995), and others apparently believe that considerable amounts of aloud self talk continue into adulthood, but we think those reports are substantially inflated because their method are retrospect”
